QR Code Generator
Create custom QR codes for URLs, text, Wi-Fi, email, and vCards with instant PNG & SVG downloads.
Generates standard QR code matrix patterns using client-side Reed-Solomon error correction algorithms. Destination URLs and Wi-Fi credentials are never logged or stored.
The FileTools Quick Response (QR) Code Generator creates custom, high-resolution 2D matrix barcodes directly in your browser. QR codes provide a bridge between physical media and digital resources, allowing smartphones to instantly open URLs, connect to wireless networks, dial telephone numbers, or save contact vCards without manual typing. Our generator supports configurable error correction levels, custom color schemes, and vector SVG or crisp PNG exports with complete client-side confidentiality.

Important Operational Notes & Realistic Limitations
- Longer URLs or extensive text payloads require denser QR matrices with smaller dots, which require closer camera scanning.
- Ensure sufficient contrast between foreground and background colors; light gray on white will fail to scan on many mobile camera sensors.
- Always perform a real-world camera test scan on a printed sample before mass-producing marketing materials.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do the generated QR codes ever expire?
No. These are direct, static QR codes that encode your exact data permanently. They will work indefinitely as long as your destination URL remains active.
What is the best error correction level for print materials?
Level M (15%) is standard for general print, while Level H (30%) is recommended if you plan to overlay a logo or expect physical wear.
Can I use the generated QR codes for commercial projects?
Yes. All generated QR codes are free for both personal and commercial use without royalties or attribution requirements.
Are my Wi-Fi credentials uploaded when generating a Wi-Fi code?
Never. The Wi-Fi configuration string is formatted and rendered purely in local browser memory without network transmission.
Do QR codes generated by this tool ever expire?
No. They are direct, static QR codes that encode your text or URL directly into the pixel matrix without redirects or expiration dates.
Can I download the QR code as a high-resolution PNG or SVG?
Yes. Download in crisp PNG format ready for print flyers, restaurant menus, business cards, or digital screens.
