Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between QR codes and barcodes?

QR codes are 2D square codes that can store more information (URLs, text, contact info) and can be scanned from any angle. Barcodes are 1D linear codes typically used for product identification.

Are the codes I create permanent?

Yes — once you download a code the image is static and contains the data directly. They do not expire unless you delete the image.

Can I use custom colors for branding?

Absolutely. Ensure sufficient contrast — dark foreground on a light background is the most reliable for scanning.

What size should I use for printing?

For business cards and small prints, 256–384px works well. For posters, 512px is a good starting point. Barcodes depend on scanner distance — increase width and height for farther distances.

Can smartphones scan these codes?

Modern smartphones can scan QR codes directly from the camera app. Barcodes may require a dedicated scanner app or POS system.

Is this tool really free?

Yes — generate unlimited codes in your browser with no signup and no watermarks.

💡 Pro Tip: For URLs, always include `https://` so scanning devices open links reliably.
