QR Code Generator

100% Free No sign-up No login No paywall

QR Code Generator turns any link or text into a scannable QR code. Paste a website link, a WhatsApp number, a YouTube channel or any text, pick a size and colours, and press “Generate QR Code”. The QR is drawn locally in your browser with a bundled library — no server, no tracking — and you can download it as a PNG for print, packaging or your shop counter. QR codes work anywhere a camera can see them — a shop counter, a business card, a poster, a product box or a presentation slide. Because the code is drawn in your browser, nothing about your link is sent to a server or tracked, and the code never expires: it simply holds your text, so it keeps working as long as the link behind it works. Restaurants use them for menus, teachers for classroom links, and sellers for payment and channel links.

Your QR code will appear above.

How to use QR Code Generator

  1. Paste your link or text in the box.
  2. Pick a size and colours (dark on light scans best).
  3. Press “Generate QR Code”.
  4. Press “Download PNG” to save it.
  5. Scan the code with your own phone to check it opens the right place.

Worked example

Example: paste https://www.youtube.com/@yourchannel, size 512, black on white. The tool draws a sharp QR code — scan it with any phone camera and it opens your channel. Print it on a card or a shop poster.

Tips for better results

  • Dark code on a light background scans fastest.
  • Test the QR with your own phone before printing.
  • Keep a quiet margin around the code — do not crop it tight.
  • For print, use size 512 or larger so it stays sharp.
  • If the code will be printed small, test it at that exact size — a code that scans on screen can fail when printed tiny.

Frequently asked questions about QR Code Generator

Is the QR generator free?

Yes, completely free — QR codes are drawn locally in your browser, no API key needed.

Can I make a QR for my YouTube channel?

Yes — paste your channel link and the QR opens it when scanned.

What size should I download?

512 pixels is good for screens and small prints. Use 1024 for posters.

Do QR codes expire?

No — a QR code is just your text encoded as a pattern. It works as long as the link works.

Can I use colours?

Yes, but keep the contrast high — dark code on a light background scans best.

Is my link stored anywhere?

No. The QR is generated locally and your link never leaves your device.

Can I put a WhatsApp number in a QR code?

Yes — paste a wa.me link such as https://wa.me/923001234567 and scanning it opens a chat with that number.

What happens if my link changes?

The QR code holds the link text itself, so it will point to the old link. Make a new code for the new link — codes cannot be edited after they are printed.
