How to use QR Code Generator

1.Enter a link or text. Arabic, French and mixed text are encoded as UTF-8.
2.Choose a preset or your own foreground, gradient and background colors. Add an optional background image.

Limitations

The image decorates the border; the code retains an opaque contrasting background and a quiet zone for reliable scanning.
Foreground colors must be darker than the background with at least 4.5:1 contrast. Long content may require a larger output size.
Decoding the preview is checked automatically, but printing, resizing and the scanning camera can affect readability. Test a final printed sample.

Privacy and processing

Local browser processing

The input content never leaves your device. Processing happens inside your browser, with no file or text upload to an external processing server. No registration is required, so the content-processing step is private to your device.

Frequently asked questions

Will the QR code expire?

The QR contains your text directly; this generator does not add an expiring redirect service. A destination website can still change or become unavailable.

Can I use an Arabic URL or Arabic text?

Yes. Unicode text is supported. The generator checks that decoding the rendered image reproduces the entered text.

Does a background photo cover the QR?

No. A safe, opaque area protects the modules and quiet zone. The photo is visible around that area.
