About QR Codes

QR codes encode text, URLs, WiFi credentials, contact details, or any short payload into a scannable square. The generator here lets you build a QR code from a URL, plain text, WiFi network, or vCard contact, and download the result as a PNG or as scalable SVG for print. The reader decodes a QR code from an uploaded image or directly from your webcam.

Businesses use QR codes on menus, table cards, and posters to take customers straight to a page without typing. Event organizers print vCard QR codes on badges so attendees can save contacts in one tap. Hosts share WiFi networks with guests via a QR code rather than reading out a password.

Generation and decoding both run in your browser — the content you encode is never sent to a server, and the webcam feed for scanning stays on your device. Output works with every modern QR reader, including the built-in camera apps on iOS and Android.
