Frequently Asked Questions

What is a QR code?

A QR (Quick Response) code is a two-dimensional barcode that stores data as a pattern of black and white squares. It can be scanned by smartphone cameras and QR code reader apps to quickly access the encoded information — such as opening a URL, connecting to WiFi, or saving a contact.

QR codes were invented in 1994 by Denso Wave, a Japanese automotive company, to track vehicle parts during manufacturing. Today, they're used worldwide for marketing, payments, authentication, and information sharing.

Which QR code type should I use?

Choose the type based on your content:

URL / Text — Websites, plain text, or any alphanumeric content
WiFi — Share network credentials without typing passwords
vCard — Digital business cards that save directly to contacts
Email — Pre-filled emails for quick communication
SMS — Quick text messages with pre-filled content
Location — GPS coordinates for map navigation
Event — Calendar invitations that save to user's calendar
Crypto — Cryptocurrency payment requests with wallet addresses

What does error correction mean?

Error correction allows a QR code to remain scannable even if parts of it are damaged, dirty, or obscured. The QR code standard uses Reed-Solomon error correction with four levels:

Level	Recovery	Best For
L (Low)	~7%	Clean environments, digital displays
M (Medium)	~15%	General use, printed materials
Q (Quartile)	~25%	Industrial environments, outdoor use
H (High)	~30%	Logo embedding, harsh conditions

Important: If you're embedding a logo, always use level H to maintain scannability. Higher error correction creates larger, more complex QR codes.

Can I add my company logo to the QR code?

Yes. Upload a PNG or JPG image (under 2MB) in the Customize section. The logo is placed at the center of the QR code, and error correction is automatically set to H to compensate for the covered area.

Logo tips: Use a square or circular logo for best results. Keep the logo simple with high contrast. The logo should not exceed 20-30% of the QR code area to maintain reliable scanning.

What format should I download?

Digital Use

PNG Format

Most widely supported
Supports transparency
Perfect for web and documents
Lossless compression

Print Use

SVG Format

Vector graphics
Infinite scalability
No quality loss at any size
Ideal for professional printing

JPG offers a smaller file size but does not support transparency. Use it for email attachments and messaging when file size matters more than quality.

Is my data safe?

Yes. All processing happens in your browser using client-side JavaScript. No data is transmitted to any server. Your WiFi passwords, contact information, cryptocurrency addresses, and other content remain on your device.

Zero Data Collection

We don't log, store, or analyze any input data.

Local Processing

All QR generation runs in your browser memory.

Open Source

Code is transparent and verifiable.

Why does my QR code not scan?

Common scanning issues and solutions:

Common mistakes to avoid:

Low contrast — Use dark foreground on light background (or vice versa)
Complex dot styles at small sizes — Use square dots for codes under 512px
Logo too large — Keep logo under 20-30% of code area
Insufficient error correction — Use level H when embedding logos
Too much data — Reduce content length or increase QR code size
Poor print quality — Use SVG format and print at high resolution

Best practices: Test your QR code with multiple devices and scanner apps before mass production. Ensure minimum size of 2×2 cm (0.8×0.8 inches) for printed codes. Maintain adequate white space (margin) around the code.

What is the maximum content length?

QR codes can store up to approximately 4,296 alphanumeric characters or 7,089 numeric characters. The actual limit depends on the content type and error correction level:

Data Type	Maximum Capacity	Error Correction Impact
Numeric only	7,089 characters	-30% at level H
Alphanumeric	4,296 characters	-30% at level H
Binary/Byte	2,953 bytes	-30% at level H
Kanji/Kana	1,817 characters	-30% at level H

A character counter below the URL/Text input shows how much capacity you've used. Keep in mind that larger QR codes with more data become more complex and may be harder to scan, especially at small sizes.

Practical tip: For best scanning reliability, keep content under 300 characters. Use URL shorteners for long web addresses. Consider splitting very large amounts of data across multiple QR codes.
