Making QR codes: frequently asked questions
Straight answers to the questions people ask most.
Is it really free?
Yes. There is no paywall, no trial, no watermark, and no usage cap. Open QR Gen and use it as often as you like.
Does it upload my data?
No. Everything runs locally in your browser. Your text or URL never leaves your device.
Do I need to install anything?
No installation, no plugins, no extensions. A current browser is all you need.
Can I color it or add a logo?
Yes. Use custom colors and logo integration, and download as PNG or SVG.
What makes a code scan reliably?
Strong contrast (dark on light), a simple design, and enough size. Test with your phone camera first.
Does it work on my phone?
Yes. The tool adapts to any screen, so it works on phones, tablets, laptops, and desktops.
