Tips for a QR code that scans every time
Test before printing
Scan the preview with two different phones before you send anything to print.
Keep links short
Shorter links make simpler codes that scan faster from further away.
Dark on light
A dark code on a light background scans on every phone; inverted colors don't.

Is this QR code generator really free?
Yes. No sign-up, no watermark and no expiry. The code stores your content directly, so it keeps working forever — even without QRLivo.
Can I change where the QR code points after printing?
Not with a free static code — its content is fixed once printed. If you want to edit things later, see statistics or add photos and links, create a QRLivo page: its QR code never changes while you update the page as often as you like.
Which file format should I download?
SVG for print shops, engraving and large prints — it stays sharp at any size. Transparent PNG for placing on colored designs, mugs and shirts. PNG with a white background for screens and dark or busy backgrounds.
Do QR codes made here expire?
No. A static QR code holds the link itself, so there is nothing to expire. It works as long as the website it points to is online.
