QR Maker / Link to QR code
Paste any web address. People point their camera at the code and the page opens.
Fill in the form and your code appears here.
On iPhone, press and hold the code to save it to Photos.
Open the page you want people to reach and copy its address from the browser bar or the Share menu.
The code draws itself as soon as the address is complete.
Save a PNG or SVG, scan it with your phone, and check that the right page opens.
| To share | Get the link like this |
|---|---|
| A website or menu | Copy the address from the browser bar. |
| A Google Form | Choose Send or Share and copy the link for respondents. |
| An Instagram profile | Open your profile, tap Share profile, then Copy link. |
| A Facebook page | Open the page, tap the three dots, then Copy link. |
| A YouTube video | Share, then Copy link. |
| A PDF or document | Upload it to Drive, Dropbox or your site, share by link, copy that link. |
| A Google review page | In your Google Business Profile, use the option to ask for reviews and copy its link. |
A long address needs more dots, and more dots are harder to scan from a distance. Trim tracking clutter you do not need, and prefer the plain address of the page.
Everyone who scans arrives on a phone. Check that the page loads quickly, is readable without zooming, and does not ask for a login the visitor will not have.
A code on its own gets ignored. Put a few words beside it: "Scan for the menu", "Scan to book", "Scan to leave a review".
A rough rule: the code should be about one tenth as wide as the distance people scan from. Arm's length on a table needs about 3 cm; a poster read from two metres needs about 20 cm.
QR Maker for iPhone
Scan with your iPhone camera to get the app
Free to download on the App Store.
Paste the link into the box at the top of this page. The code appears straight away. Download it as a PNG or SVG, or print it.
The code itself never expires: it holds your link directly and does not pass through our servers. It keeps working for as long as the page it points to stays online at the same address.
No. The link is fixed in the code. If you might move the page, point the code at an address you control and can redirect, such as a page on your own website.
The code itself cannot count scans. If you use website analytics, add a tag to the end of the link before you make the code, for example ?utm_source=qr&utm_medium=flyer. Visits from the code then show up under that name.
Open the form, choose Send or Share, and copy the link for people filling it in. Paste it here. Anyone who scans the code opens the form ready to fill in.
A QR code holds a link, not the file. Upload the PDF somewhere it can be opened by link, such as Google Drive, Dropbox or your website, set sharing to "anyone with the link", then paste that link here.
You can leave it off: we add https:// for you. If your page only works with http://, type that in full.
