Scanned.
one job: generate a QR code
About this tool
Scanned. turns any text, link, wifi detail, or short message into a QR code you can display, print, or share, updating live as you type. Choose a size for how it'll be used (small for a business card, large for a poster) and an error correction level for how much damage or obstruction the code needs to survive.
The QR code is generated entirely in your browser and encodes your text directly, so it works forever, isn't a redirect through a third party, and doesn't depend on this site staying online.
Frequently asked questions
How do I create a QR code for a URL?
Paste the full URL, including https://, into the text field. The QR code updates automatically and can be downloaded as a PNG.
Do QR codes expire?
No. The QR code encodes the text directly, it is not a redirect through a third-party service, so it never expires and does not depend on this site staying online.
What is QR code error correction?
Higher error correction lets the code still scan even if part of it is damaged, dirty, or covered by a small logo, at the cost of a slightly denser pattern. High is a safe default for print.
Is my data uploaded or stored when I generate a QR code?
No. The QR code is generated entirely in your browser, nothing is sent to a server.
