Frequently asked questions
Why will my QR code not scan?
Usually contrast or size. Dark-on-light is what scanners expect; inverted codes fail on many readers. The code also needs a clear margin around it, and enough physical size — roughly one centimetre per 10 centimetres of scanning distance.
Do these codes expire?
No. The content is encoded directly into the pattern itself, so the code works forever and requires no service to stay online. Dynamic QR codes from other services point at a redirect URL that can break if the company shuts down — that is not the case here.
What size should I use for print?
Generate at 1000 pixels or higher. For a business card, roughly two centimetres square is the practical minimum. For a poster read from several metres, scale up proportionally — about one centimetre of code per 10 centimetres of viewing distance.
How much text can a QR code hold?
The format supports several thousand characters, but the pattern becomes dense and much harder to scan long before that limit. For anything substantial, encode a short URL instead of the content itself.
Can I put a logo in the middle?
Not with this tool. QR codes include error correction that tolerates some obstruction, which is how logo overlays work elsewhere, but this generator produces the standard pattern without overlay support.
How to use QR Code Generator?
1) Open the tool. 2) Enter or upload your input. 3) Get your result instantly. Everything happens locally — nothing is uploaded.
When should I use QR Code Generator?
Use it when you need a QR code on a poster, business card, restaurant menu or product label without exposing the destination URL to a tracking provider.

Yes. QR Code Generator runs 100% in your browser. Inputs are never uploaded, stored, or logged — safe for confidential content.
