QR Code Generator

Questions

How the generator works, what the file contains, and what stays on your device.

Is there a free QR code generator?

Yes. This free QR code generator runs in your browser. PNG, SVG, and JPEG downloads are free, and a logo, colors, and module shapes are included. There is no account, no watermark, and the file does not expire here.

What is the best free QR code generator?

For a file you can print today, the best free QR code generator includes the logo and the SVG, then hands you the download with no signup. This site does that in the browser. The file stores the link itself, so it does not expire when a subscription ends. A hosted tool is the better fit only when you need to change the destination after printing.

Is QR Code Generator free?

Yes. PNG, SVG, and JPEG downloads are free. Colors, module shapes, error correction, and a logo are included. There is no account and no watermark.

Do you store what I encode?

No. The code is drawn on your device. A refresh clears what you typed and returns the fields to their starting values. It is not written into the address bar and it is not sent to a server as form data.

Will the code expire?

Not from this site. A static code keeps the link, text, or contact you put in it. If a website moves, the code still points at the old address, so you print a new one.

Which file should I download?

Use SVG for print, signs, and packaging. Use PNG for slides, email, and websites. Use JPEG only when another tool rejects PNG. 1024 px is enough for most screens. Use 2048 px or 4096 px for large print.

Can I put a logo in the middle?

Yes. Use a simple mark on a plain background, and set error correction to H. The logo covers modules, and H keeps enough repair data for a phone to read the code. Scan the file before you print it.

What is error correction?

It is spare data that lets a phone rebuild the code when part of it is dirty, cropped, or covered. L repairs the least and fits the most text. H repairs the most and fits the least. Q is the default.

Can I edit a code after I download it?

No. These are static codes. Hosted generators that let you change the destination later keep a redirect on their servers. Here, a new destination means a new file.

Does it work without an internet connection?

You need the page loaded in order to build the code. After that, drawing and downloading happen on the device. A Wi-Fi, text, phone, contact, or event code can be scanned later with no connection. A URL code still needs the destination site to be online.
