Frequently asked questions

Is this QR code generator really free?

Yes. Basic QR code generation - any content, custom colors, PNG download - is completely free with no account required. Scan tracking and unlimited history require a free ToolBit account.

Do the QR codes expire?

Static QR codes (encoding a URL or text directly) never expire. If you use tracking QR codes with a short redirect URL, those links remain active as long as your ToolBit account is active.

What can I encode in a QR code?

Anything - website URLs, plain text, email addresses (mailto:), phone numbers (tel:), SMS, Wi-Fi network credentials, vCards, calendar events, and more. Any string of text up to ~4,000 characters.

How do I scan a QR code?

Open your phone's camera app and point it at the QR code. Most modern smartphones (iOS 11+, Android 9+) decode QR codes natively through the camera without a separate app.

What resolution is the downloaded PNG?

QR codes are downloaded at 512×512px by default - suitable for most print and digital uses. For very large format print (banners, signage), scale the image up with nearest-neighbor interpolation to keep it crisp.

Can I track how many times my QR code was scanned?

Yes. Enable tracking when generating your QR code. ToolBit creates a short redirect URL, and every scan is logged. View scan counts, daily trends, and device breakdowns in your dashboard under the QR History tab.
