QR Code Generator

What is a QR Code Generator?

A QR Code Generator is a tool that creates Quick Response (QR) codes. QR codes are two-dimensional barcodes that can store various types of information, such as website URLs, plain text, contact details (vCard), Wi-Fi network credentials, email addresses, phone numbers, SMS messages, geographic coordinates, and more. They can be easily scanned using smartphone cameras or dedicated QR code reader apps.

How Do QR Codes Work?

QR codes store data using a pattern of black squares arranged on a square grid against a white background. The specific arrangement of these squares encodes the information. Built-in error correction allows QR codes to be scanned even if they are partially damaged or obscured. Our generator uses established standards to create reliable and scannable codes.
