    QR Code Customization

    Error correction

    How much of the code can be smudged, torn, or covered and still scan. Higher levels add more squares, so the code gets busier. Medium suits most uses. Pick High or Highest for codes printed outdoors or on products.

    Module shape

    Changes the look of the small squares. The three corner markers keep a solid shape so phones can still find them.

    1024 × 1024 px

    1024 px works for screens and most prints. Go bigger for posters and signs. About 3.4 in (8.7 cm) wide when printed at 300 DPI.

    4 modules

    The blank border around the code. Scanners use it to find the edges, so 4 is the standard. Go lower only if the code will sit on a plain, light background.

    Dark codes on light backgrounds scan most reliably.

    FAQ

    Why are there ads on this site?

    Ads keep this tool free for everyone. If you can, please turn off your ad blocker for this site to help keep it up and running.

    Do my QR codes ever expire?

    No. Your link or text is stored inside the code itself, with no redirect through our servers. It will keep working as long as the link works or the Wi-Fi password doesn't change.

    Do you see or save what I type?

    No. Your QR code is made right in your browser, and what you type is never sent to our servers. If you accept cookies, we only measure general things like page visits and which file types are saved.

    Can I use these codes for my business?

    Yes. Codes you make here are yours to use on menus, packaging, flyers, business cards, etc., personal or commercial. No payment necessary.

    Is my Wi-Fi password safe in a QR code?

    The password is written into the code, so anyone who scans it can join your network and read the password. Share Wi-Fi codes only where you'd be comfortable sharing the password itself, like at home or for a guest network.

    How do I test my code before printing?

    Open your phone's camera, point it at the code on your screen, and tap the link that pops up. For printed codes, print one test copy at the final size and scan it from a normal distance.
