The QR Code Generator on FunnyFunHouse builds QR codes directly in your browser. No account, no API call, no tracking. Whether you need a quick link for a flyer or a Wi-Fi code for guests, the generator produces a clean, scannable image in a few clicks.

What It Does

The tool encodes text, links, and structured data into a QR code you can download or copy. It supports the formats people actually use: plain text, URLs, Wi-Fi logins, vCard contacts, email, phone, SMS, and geographic coordinates. Because the QR library runs locally, nothing you type leaves your device.

Key Features

  • Eight content types with tailored input fields for each
  • Four error correction levels from L (~7%) to H (~30%)
  • Custom colors for the code and background, plus a transparent option
  • Logo overlay from an uploaded image or a FontAwesome icon
  • PNG and SVG downloads, or copy the PNG straight to the clipboard
  • Adjustable size from 128 to 2048 pixels
  • Live preview with pixelated rendering so the modules stay crisp

Common Use Cases

  • Sharing a Wi-Fi password with guests without reading it out loud
  • Adding a scannable contact card to a business card or email signature
  • Linking a printed flyer to an online landing page
  • Prefilling an SMS or email for a support contact
  • Pointing attendees to a map location at an event

Tips

Start with error correction level M and only raise it if you plan to print the code small or overlay a logo. An uploaded image covers part of the data area, so the app automatically raises error correction to H to keep the code readable.

Pick colors with enough contrast. A dark foreground on a light background scans best. Very light foregrounds or very dark backgrounds often fail on older scanners, even when the design looks fine on screen.

Test every code with a real phone before you publish or print it. Change a single input, rescan, and only then commit to the final version. The SVG export is useful for print because it stays sharp at any size, but remember that overlays are only included in the PNG output.

Why Use a Browser-Based Tool?

  • Private - your text never reaches a server
  • Offline - works once the page has loaded
  • Fast - regenerates the code as you type
  • Free - no sign-up, no watermark, no limits
