How to make a QR code in a few steps
Generating a QR code takes under a minute.
Step 1: Open the tool
Go to QR Gen. It runs entirely in your browser — nothing to install, no account to create.
Step 2: Enter your text or URL
Type plain text or paste a URL. This is what the code will link to when scanned.
Step 3: Style the code
- Set custom colors to match your brand
- Add a logo in the center if you have one
- Keep strong contrast between the code and its background
Step 4: Download the QR code
Download as PNG for web or print, or SVG for a resolution-independent vector. Then test it with your phone camera.
Tips
- Double-check the URL before generating — the code is fixed once made
- Plain black on white scans most reliably
- Test a print mockup before large print runs
What you need to get started
A modern browser (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, or Edge). The tool takes text or a URL and does everything on your device.
Verdict
Skip installs, accounts, and uploads: open QR Gen and make a scannable code in seconds.
