Offline QR code generator

You can generate QR codes from any text by typing in in this box. The code generation is performed on your local device, no data is sent anywhere.
You can even download this file (see button on the top right) and use it when you are not connected to the Internet.
If the layout looks strange, try resizing your browser window. It always tries to maximize the QR code's size, which can look strange sometimes.

⚠️ The maximum size of a QR code is 2953 bytes (one character is normally one byte, although foreign language characters and emojis take up multiple bytes)
⚠️ Some features will not work in some browsers. In my experience Google Chrome works best.
🎉 This should now also work with Emojis
📁 You can now drag and drop a file in this text box
📁 And you can copy-paste a file to this text area
