When to use it
For links, business card details, or café Wi-Fi passwords — any QR you'll print or display once and be done with. Standard square QR — common scanners read it.
Two modes
Default is Text / URL. Paste a URL or any text; the QR updates. The Wi-Fi mode just takes a network name and password. Scan it and the default iOS / Android camera offers to join the network automatically.
Picking the redundancy level
The redundancy is headroom — it keeps the QR readable even if part of it is torn or covered. For on-screen use, M is fine. If you're putting a logo over the print, or leaving it outdoors, go Q or H. Higher redundancy makes the QR denser and fits fewer characters.
Size guide
For on-screen sharing, 256 pixels wide is enough. In a document, aim for at least 2.5cm × 2.5cm; business cards and flyers 3cm × 3cm or larger. For print, choose SVG — it scales without blurring. For image attachments, PNG.
Where does your input go?
Text and Wi-Fi passwords never leave this page. QR generation runs in your browser, with nothing written to storage. Close the tab and it's gone.
