Get answers to your questions about Online QR Generator and QR codes
What is a QR code generator?
A QR code generator is a tool that allows you to make your own QR codes. These codes can be customized to contain data of your choice. People can scan these codes on their smartphones and they'll be automatically sent to the content you point them to, whether it's a website, a video or a social media profile.
How do you scan a QR code?
The majority of Android and iOS smartphones are equipped with an in-built QR code reader within their camera. However, if your smartphone lacks this feature, you can download an app that enables your device to read QR codes.
What's the difference between static and dynamic QR codes?
Static QR codes are the simplest kind of QR codes and they can't be modified or overwritten at any point in the future. In other words, once you have generated a static QR code, that's it - it cannot be edited. Dynamic QR codes are editable at any time. You can create a dynamic QR code, print the code, distribute it, and change the link that it points to at a later date. Also, dynamic QR codes can collect time, location, and frequency statistics.
What data is collected in dynamic QR code scans?
Our dynamic QR code scans collect a range of key information about the performance of your QR codes, such as how often they're being scanned and where and how they're being scanned. You'll be able to see information like the devices and the operating systems that people are using to scan your QR codes. You'll also be able to see how many times your codes have been scanned, as well as how many unique people have scanned them. Get more insights on your customers with our easy-to-use statistics and charts or easily export your data to Excel.
Can anyone create a QR code?
Yes! Our tool is designed so that anyone can create a high-performing QR code with no design experience required. All it takes is a few clicks. You'll select the options you want to use and tell us what you want your QR code to do, and our QR code generator will do the rest of the work! Simply save your QR code and start using it on your packaging, your print materials or anywhere else that you want to deploy it.
Why are there other websites offering QR code generators for free?
There are some free QR generators out there, but they only have limited options available and they'll often overlay their own branding on top of it. If you want access to advanced customization and analytics, you'll need a paid tool like the one we offer. With Online QR Generator, you can link your code to nearly any digital content, track results, and fully customize the code. Our dynamic QR codes let you edit the content of your QR code at any time, even if it's already printed! Try it for free with our trial period.

Why aren't my QR codes working?
In 99% of cases, your QR codes will work without a problem. In rare situations where they don't work, there are a few things for you to look at. Here is a list of common reasons why a QR code might not be working: It may be that the codes are being scanned in low light or from an old phone model. The QR code must be large enough for people to scan. If you're using a logo, make sure that it's not getting in the way of any important elements of your QR code. You should also make sure that there is a significant contrast between your QR code's foreground and background.
Can I add a QR code to my website (and will people be able to scan it)?
You can add QR codes to pretty much anything you can think of, from physical goods and locations to digital properties like websites, applications, emails and social media profiles. People will be able to scan it with any compatible device.
Do QR codes have a scan counter?
Yes. Our comprehensive analytics tracks the number of scans that a QR code receives, as well as when, where and what devices scanned the QR code.
