A QR is a saved design (colours, frame, eye style, body pattern, optional logo) connected to one or more short links. Print the code once, hand it out, change where it points whenever you want.
What you can do
Design your QR
Open QR codes → New QR code.
Lands you on the editor with a live preview.
Pick body pattern + eye style.
Square, rounded, dots, fluid, classy. Eyes can be square, rounded, circle, or leaf.
Pick a frame (optional).
Square, rounded, round, hexagon, heart, or just brackets. Slider controls the gap.
Colours + logo.
Foreground, background (or transparent), and any image dropped in the centre. Error correction stays high enough to scan around the logo.
Connect to a short link
QR + link is a many-to-many connection. Same QR can mark multiple short links; same link can have multiple QR variants for different print runs.
Download
Every connected QR has a Download dropdown:
- SVG — vector, infinite scaling. Best for print.
- PNG — raster, transparent-friendly. Web and slides.
- JPEG — raster, white background. Email-friendly.
- PDF — A4 page with the QR centred. Print-ready.
Re-point printed codes
The QR encodes your short URL. Edit the link's destination — printed codes keep working. Change the link's type from URL to SMS, vCard, or calendar event — same code, different behaviour when scanned.
Tags
Tags are shared with short links — same pool. Tag both a coffee-shop link and a coffee-shop QR and you'll see them grouped + ranked together when picking from either side.
Duplicate a design
Open the QR and click Duplicate in the top right. You land on a copy that carries the full visual (colors, dot style, error-correction, frame, logo) and the tags — only the name picks up (copy). Connections to short links don't carry, so the duplicate is a fresh design ready to tweak before you wire it up.
Useful for a colour variant on the same brand QR, an A/B layout test, or branching a campaign design without losing the original.
Disconnect or delete
- Remove on a row only severs the connection — the QR and the link both stay.
- Delete the QR design — files you've already downloaded keep working (they encode the URL, not the design).
- Delete the underlying link — every printed code that points at it goes dead. Be intentional.
