Generate QR codes from URLs, text, or vCards. Static only, no tracking, runs entirely in your browser — no upload.
QR Code Generator
Generate QR codes from text or URLs online for free. Works entirely in your browser — no uploads, no limits.
QR codes are the universal bridge between physical objects and digital content. Every restaurant menu, every event ticket, every product package, and every payment terminal uses a QR code to encode a URL, a text string, or structured data like a vCard. The QR code standard (ISO/IEC 18004) is open and free to implement, but most online QR code generators are not free in the privacy sense: they embed a redirect link that funnels every scan through their analytics server. This tool generates static QR codes directly in your browser. The output is a clean PNG or SVG with no redirects, no tracking pixels, and no scan data collection — the same privacy-respecting approach as the rest of the ToolConvoy toolset.
How to use
Enter your data
Type a URL, plain text, phone number, or vCard. The QR code updates in real-time as you type.
Choose size and error correction
Pick a pixel size (default 300×300). Error correction level: L (7%, smallest), M (15%, default), Q (25%), H (30%, largest but most scannable on damaged prints).
Download as PNG or SVG
Download as a raster PNG for print or as a vector SVG for scaling. The QR code is generated locally with no tracking pixels, no redirects, and no scan analytics.
Frequently asked
Why doesn't this tool track scans or offer analytics?
Most online QR code generators embed a redirect link that routes every scan through their server, collecting IP addresses, device info, and scan timestamps. This tool generates static QR codes — the encoded data is embedded directly in the image, with no server round-trip. A static QR code is a privacy-respecting QR code.
What's the difference between static and dynamic QR codes?
A static QR code encodes the data directly — scanning it reads the URL or text without any intermediary. A dynamic QR code encodes a redirect URL that points to a server, which then forwards the scanner to the real destination. Dynamic codes enable analytics, URL changes, and tracking. Static codes do not track and cannot be changed after printing.
Can I add a logo to the QR code?
No. Adding a logo reduces the error-correction margin and can make the QR code unscannable on damaged prints. For branded QR codes, use a dedicated print design tool that overlays the logo after the QR code is generated.
Which error correction level should I choose?
M (15% recovery) is the default and works for most use cases. H (30%) is recommended for QR codes printed on rough surfaces, curved objects, or that will be photographed in low light. L (7%) produces the smallest QR code but is least tolerant of damage.
Limitations
- Static QR codes onlyThe generated QR code cannot be changed after printing. If the destination URL changes, generate a new QR code.
- No scan analyticsStatic QR codes have no tracking mechanism. If you need scan counts, device data, or location analytics, use a dynamic QR code service — and be transparent with your users about what data is collected.
Platform notes
- Web
- Runs client-side. The QR code image is generated in your browser and never sent anywhere.
