Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about this tool.

How does the browser QR Code Generator work? ▼

The generator encodes your URL or text string into a 2D matrix barcode rendered on an HTML5 `<canvas>` element using client-side JavaScript.

Can I download the generated QR code as a high-res PNG? ▼

Yes! Click the "Download PNG" button to export a crisp 300x300 pixel PNG image file.

What types of data can be encoded in a QR code? ▼

You can encode website URLs (`https://...`), plain text messages, Wi-Fi credentials (`WIFI:S:...`), email addresses, and phone numbers.

Is my data tracked or sent to any external server? ▼

No! The QR code is generated 100% locally in your browser using canvas APIs. No data is stored or logged anywhere.

What color contrast is required for scannability? ▼

Ensure high contrast between the QR code foreground and background colors (e.g. dark foreground on a white or light background) for mobile camera scanners.
