FAQ

Is this Text QR code generator free?
Yes. QRFlow is free to use and generates QR codes locally in your browser.
Do you upload my data?
No. Inputs stay in your browser. “Share this QR” stores data in the URL hash only (not sent to the server).
Which format should I download for printing?
Use SVG for crisp, print-ready output at any size. Use PNG for quick sharing.
What is a text QR code?
It stores plain text so scanners show your message directly without opening a link.
How much text can I include?
Short text is best. Longer text makes the QR dense and harder to scan.

Tips

  • Keep text short to make the QR easier to scan.
