Make a QR code, free and never expiring

This tool makes a QR code from a link, some text, a Wi-Fi login, a phone number or an email, right in your browser. Watch the preview change as you type, choose colours and a size, then download it as a PNG or an SVG. The code holds your text itself, so it never expires.

The code holds your text itself, so it never expires and needs no account.

How to use QR Code Generator

  1. Choose what it holds

    On the Make a QR code tab, pick Link, Text, Wi-Fi, Phone or Email, then fill in the fields. The preview updates as you type.

  2. Adjust the look

    Set Colour and Background, pick an Error correction level and a PNG size from 256 to 2048 pixels.

  3. Download

    Press PNG for a picture, or SVG for a file that stays sharp at any size.

How the code is made

The text you enter is turned into a QR code on your own device. A link gets https:// added if it is missing, a Wi-Fi login is written in the standard format phones understand, a phone number becomes a tel: link and an email becomes a mailto: link with your optional subject. The text is encoded as UTF-8, so accented letters, other alphabets and emoji all work.

Error correction decides how much of the code can be damaged or covered and still be read. Low gives the smallest code, Medium is a good everyday choice, and High or Highest suit print, small sizes or a logo placed on top. Higher levels make the pattern denser, so a short text keeps it easy to scan.

Because the information sits inside the picture itself, the code needs no website to stay alive and nothing is sent anywhere. The PNG and SVG are created in your browser and saved straight to your device, and closing the tab discards everything.

Questions about QR Code Generator

Does the QR code expire?

No. The code holds your text or link itself, with no middleman in between. Nothing is switched on or off by us, so it works for as long as the link or information inside it is still valid. There is no account and no trial.

How do I make a QR code for my Wi-Fi?

Choose Wi-Fi, type the Network name and Password, and pick the Security type: WPA, WPA2 or WPA3, WEP, or None (open network) if there is no password. Guests can then scan the code with their phone camera and join without typing the password.

Which colours and size should I use for print?

Use a dark colour on a light background, ideally black on white. If the colours are too close, the tool warns you, because many phone cameras cannot read them. For print, choose Highest error correction, a large PNG size or the SVG, and test the printed code with a phone before you make many copies.

Is my information kept private?

Yes. The code is drawn inside your browser tab, so your link, text or Wi-Fi password is not uploaded and not stored. There is no tracking redirect, so scans are not counted or passed through anyone. It even works offline once the page has loaded.

Should I download PNG or SVG?

PNG is a normal picture, good for websites, documents and chat. SVG is made of shapes, so it stays perfectly sharp at any size, which is best for posters, signs and print shops. If you are unsure, take the SVG for print and the PNG for screens.

What can I put in a QR code?

A link (https:// is added if you leave it off), plain text in any language, a Wi-Fi login, a phone number that starts a call, or an email address with an optional subject. Shorter content gives a simpler code that is easier to scan. If the text is too long for one code, the tool tells you.
