Will the QR stop working over time?

No. The code simply contains your link or text and works as long as the link itself works.

Yes. Download the PNG and use it in print at any size — QR codes scan well.

Is there a text length limit?

The more text, the denser the code. For long links, use a short link first.

Is data sent anywhere?

No, the QR is created in your browser; nothing goes to a server.

Do QR codes expire or need a subscription?

No. This is a static QR — the data is baked into the image itself, so it works forever, offline, with no account or fees.

What size should I print a QR code at?

At least 2×2 cm for phone cameras, and larger for posters scanned from a distance. Keep a clear margin around it and don't stretch the image.
