A QR (Quick Response) code is a two-dimensional barcode that can store URLs, text, contact info, and more. It can be scanned by any smartphone camera to instantly access the encoded information.

Is QR Forge completely free?

Yes! Our QR code generator is 100% free with no limits on the number of QR codes you can create. No sign-up or account required.

What formats can I download?

You can download your QR codes in PNG (raster) or SVG (vector) format. SVG is ideal for print materials as it scales to any size without losing quality.

Can I customize the colors of my QR code?

Absolutely! Use the color pickers to set any foreground and background color. Just make sure there's enough contrast for scanners to read the code reliably.

Static QR codes (like the ones we generate) never expire. They encode the data directly, so they'll work forever — as long as the URL they point to is still active.

What size should I use for printing?

For print, we recommend downloading in SVG format at the largest size. A minimum of 2 × 2 cm (about 0.8 × 0.8 in) is recommended for reliable scanning at arm's length.

Is my data stored or tracked?

No. QR codes are generated entirely in your browser. We never see, store, or track the data you encode.

What content can I encode?

You can encode any text: URLs, email addresses, phone numbers, Wi-Fi credentials, plain text, and more. The maximum capacity is around 4,296 alphanumeric characters.
