Create a QR code with any text message. Encode plain text into a scannable QR code.
Create TEXT QR CodeA QR code can hold up to approximately 4,296 alphanumeric characters or 2,953 bytes of data. However, more text means a denser, more complex code that requires larger print sizes. For best scannability, keep text under 300 characters.
QR codes support UTF-8 encoding, so emojis and characters from most languages are supported. However, special characters increase the data size, making the code more complex. Test scannability after including special characters.
The text is displayed on the screen of the scanning device. The user can then copy it, share it, or take action on it. Unlike URL QR codes, text codes do not open a browser — they simply show the encoded text.
