QR Code Generator
QR Code Generator turns text, a URL or Wi-Fi credentials into a scannable QR code in your browser, with no account, no tracking and no ads baked into the code.
Static code: your text is encoded directly, with no redirect, no scan tracking and no expiry.

No ads, no scan tracking, and codes that never expire, because every code made here is static: the URL or text you type is written straight into the pattern, with no short link or redirect server in between. A phone that scans it opens your link directly, so there is nothing for us to count and nothing that can be switched off later. The code is drawn on an HTML canvas by the qrcode library running in this browser tab, and what you type is never sent anywhere.
Static codes versus dynamic codes
Many QR sites make dynamic codes by default. Those encode a short link on the generator's own domain, which then redirects to your page. That is how they show scan counts, and how they can let you change the destination later. It is also why such codes can carry an ad page, or stop working when a free trial ends or the company shuts down. A static code skips the middleman. The trade-off is that you cannot edit it after printing; to change the destination, make a new code.
How to use it
- Type or paste the text or URL you want to encode.
- Pick an error correction level if the default doesn't fit your use case - higher levels tolerate more damage but look denser.
- Click "Download Image" to save a PNG, or "Copy to Clipboard" to paste it directly into another app.
Frequently asked questions
Is this QR code generator free without ads?
Yes. There are no ads on the page and none inside the code: what you download is a plain PNG of a QR code holding exactly the text you typed. There is no sign-up, no watermark, and no paid tier that unlocks downloads.
Do the QR codes track scans?
No. The code stores your URL or text itself, so a phone that scans it goes straight to your link without passing through any server of ours. We never see a scan and could not count one if we wanted to. Generators that offer scan statistics do it with a dynamic code that points at their own redirect link first.
Do the QR codes expire?
Never. A static code has nothing that can expire: the content is printed into the pattern, and no service has to stay online for it to work. It keeps working for as long as the link inside it works. Codes that stop working after a trial are dynamic codes whose redirect service was switched off.
Is the text I enter sent anywhere to generate the code?
No. The QR code is drawn in your browser by the qrcode JavaScript library, and the text is never sent to a server, which matters for something private like a Wi-Fi password. The site's analytics record that a code was downloaded or copied, not what it contains.
Can I change where the code points after printing it?
No, and that is the trade-off of a static code. Because the destination is inside the pattern, a new link means a new code. If you expect the link to change, point the code at a page you control and update that page instead.
What can I put in a QR code?
Any text: a plain URL, a phone number (tel:+1...), an email address (mailto:...), or a Wi-Fi network (WIFI:T:WPA;S:network-name;P:password;;). What happens when it's scanned depends on the scanning app recognizing that format.
What does the error correction level do?
It controls how much of the code can be damaged, dirty, or covered by a logo and still scan correctly - Low tolerates about 7% damage, High about 30%. Higher levels also make the code visually denser.
Is there a limit to how much text I can encode?
QR codes can hold a few thousand characters, but longer input produces a denser code that's harder for cameras to scan reliably. Shorter is more reliable - a URL works better than a paragraph.
What format can I download?
PNG, ready to print or share. Copy to Clipboard also copies a PNG.
