Frequently Asked Questions
What is a QR code?
A QR (Quick Response) code is a two-dimensional barcode that can store text, URLs, contact information, and other data. It can be scanned by smartphone cameras or QR code reader apps to quickly access the encoded information.
What error correction level should I use?
Error correction determines how much of the QR code can be damaged while still being readable. Low (L) allows 7% damage recovery, Medium (M) 15%, Quartile (Q) 25%, and High (H) 30%. Use higher levels if the QR code will be printed on materials that may get damaged, or if you plan to add a logo overlay.
What size should I choose for my QR code?
For digital use (websites, emails), 256px is usually sufficient. For printing on business cards or flyers, 512px works well. For large format printing (posters, banners), choose 1024px to ensure the QR code remains sharp and scannable.
Are my QR codes stored on a server?
No, all QR code generation happens directly in your browser. Your data never leaves your device, ensuring complete privacy. The generated QR codes are not stored or tracked.
Can I customize the colors of my QR code?
Yes, you can change both the foreground (dark modules) and background colors of your QR code. Make sure there is sufficient contrast between the two colors for reliable scanning. Dark foreground on light background works best.
