How do I create a QR code for free?

Enter the content you want to encode, adjust the design settings if needed, and download the generated PNG. This QR code generator runs in your browser and does not require signup.

What can I encode in a QR code?

You can encode any text, including URLs, email addresses, phone numbers, WiFi credentials, plain text messages, and more. Most QR scanners will automatically open URLs or prompt actions based on the content.

What size should I choose?

Around 320px works for most web sharing, 512px is strong for general print, and larger sizes are useful for posters or packaging. Always test after resizing.

Can I customize the color of the QR code?

Yes. You can change the foreground and background colors, but keep strong contrast so the QR remains easy to scan.

Is there a length limit for content?

QR codes can hold up to about 4,296 alphanumeric characters. However, shorter content creates simpler, more reliable codes. Keep URLs under 200 characters for best results.

Can I add a logo to the center of the QR code?

Yes. Upload a logo image and the tool automatically raises error correction and keeps a safe minimum margin to protect scan reliability.

Can I create QR codes for WiFi?

Yes. Enter your WiFi details in this format: WIFI:T:WPA;S:YourNetworkName;P:YourPassword;; or use the dedicated WiFi QR Code Generator for a simpler setup flow.

Are QR codes generated securely?

Yes. QR codes are generated entirely in your browser. No data is sent to any server. The content you encode stays on your device.
