QR code generator

Create a downloadable QR code from text or a URL.

Literal text, up to 1,000 UTF-8 bytes. Black-on-white PNG, error correction M and a four-module quiet zone. Requested size is adjusted to whole modules, with at least three pixels per module for readability. The encoded link is neither visited nor checked for safety; do not open unknown destinations. Content is neither sent nor saved.

What this tool does

Generate a local QR code PNG containing your text or URL, without shorteners or redirects.

How to use it

  1. Enter the content and choose a size within the limits.
  2. Generate the code and test it with a QR reader.
  3. Download the PNG and test reading it in its intended context.

Verifiable example

Input
The text https://www.iana.org/ entered in the generator.
Expected result
A reader recovers that exact content; the generator does not open the destination.

Limitations to review

  • Up to 1,000 UTF-8 bytes. Requested sizes 256–1024 are adjusted to whole modules and a quiet zone.
  • A readable QR code does not establish safety. URLs are neither visited nor certified.
