Your QR code

Enter valid content to begin

The preview updates automatically as you type.

Image copying is unavailable here. PNG and SVG downloads still work.

What it does

Turn useful information into a scannable code

Generate QR codes for plain text, websites, email, phone numbers, SMS messages, Wi-Fi access, and contact cards. Adjust the size, quiet zone, colors, and error correction before downloading.

How to use it

Create a QR code in three steps

  1. Choose the content type and enter the requested details.
  2. Review the live preview and adjust its appearance.
  3. Download PNG or SVG, or copy the PNG when supported.

Supported QR code types

Text and websites

Share Unicode text or an http/https link that opens in a browser.

Messages and calls

Prepare email, telephone, and SMS actions for compatible devices.

Wi-Fi and contacts

Share escaped network credentials or a standards-compatible vCard.

Private by design

Generated on your device

The QR library and browser rendering APIs run locally after the page loads. ToolNest does not need an account and does not send entered QR content to a processing endpoint.

Choose a format

PNG for convenience, SVG for scale

Use PNG for everyday sharing and insertion into common documents. Choose SVG when the QR code needs to remain crisp for print, signage, or large layouts.

Helpful answers

QR Code Generator FAQs

Is my QR code content uploaded?

No. ToolNest generates the QR code inside your browser. The text, contact, Wi-Fi, or other content you enter is not sent to a ToolNest processing server.

Can I create a QR code in Urdu?

Yes. The generator supports Unicode text, including Urdu and other languages. Longer multibyte text may reach QR capacity sooner than short English text.

What is the difference between PNG and SVG?

PNG is convenient for documents, messages, and social posts. SVG stays sharp at any size and is often better for printing or design software.

Which error correction level should I use?

Medium is a sensible default. Higher levels can tolerate more damage but store less content and usually create denser QR codes.

Why does color contrast matter?

QR scanners need a clear difference between dark and light modules. A dark foreground on a light background is the most reliable choice.
