How to create a QR code

For: EveryoneDifficulty: Easy⏱ 2 min

Step by step

1. Open QR codes from the navigation rail and choose Make a QR code.
2. Pick what the code should hold — a website link, plain text, WiFi details, a contact card, an email, an SMS or a phone number.
3. Give it a Name. That is for finding it in your own list later; it is not part of the code and nobody scanning it ever sees it.
4. Fill in the fields for the type you picked — the web address, the network name and password, the contact details, and so on.
5. Save. The finished code appears on its own page, and that is where you Download it — SVG for print, PNG for screens and slides.

Tips

• The code is generated when you save, not while you type, so the image you see on the page afterwards is the real thing rather than a mock-up of it.
• Free includes 3 codes, Starter 25, Growth 250; Premium and Enterprise are unlimited.
• Test every code with two different phones before you send anything to print.

Frequently asked questions

Can I see the code before I save it?
Not yet — the code is drawn once you save, on the page you land on next. Nothing is published by saving, so a code you decide against can simply be deleted.
