Image QR Code Generator
A scan opens the picture at the link you paste. Use a public image address, not a file from your camera roll.
The picture stays where you hosted it
Use a direct image address, or a page that shows the picture. The code does not contain the pixels. It contains the link.
A private album link often asks the viewer to sign in. Test the address in a private window before you print the code.
Questions
Can I upload a photo?
No. Host the image first, then paste its link. A logo inside the QR pattern is a separate option on the Design tab.
Which image address works best?
An https link that opens the picture without an account. Gallery pages work when you want a set of images rather than one file.
