The code is made in your browser. Nothing you type is sent to a server.

Scan codes too, and check links first.

The QR Code Scanner app reads QR codes and barcodes, checks links with Google Web Risk (Pro), keeps your scan history on your phone, and makes styled codes with the Pro designer.

How to make a QR code

Choose the code type. Select a website link, text, a Wi-Fi network, a contact card or an SMS message in Code type.
Fill in the content or the fields. Type a link or text in Content. For Wi-Fi, contact and SMS, fill in the fields, and the generator writes the content for you.
Set the size, the colors and the error correction. Pick a size in pixels, a code color and a background color. Keep a dark code on a light background. Higher error correction makes the code larger but easier to read when it is damaged.
Download the PNG and test it. Select Download PNG. Then point your phone camera at the code on the screen to check that it opens the right content.
