Common questions

Don't you need Instagram's own QR code?

No. A standard QR pointing at your profile address does exactly the same job, so you can print it anywhere the in-app square cannot go — packaging, posters, receipts, windows. Guests land on your profile either way, and you keep full control of the design.

Can it point at a specific post?

Yes — paste a Reel or a single post address instead of your profile and the QR lands exactly there. Use this for campaigns: one code per launch, each opening the exact video or post you want seen. Swap the address any time with a fresh code.

Is it permanent?

Yes. Static QR codes never expire and carry no tracking or fee, unlike Instagram's own dynamic codes which depend on the app. As long as the linked page exists, the printed code keeps working — years from now, on any phone.

Can I track scans?

Static QR codes have no analytics built in — that is also why they are free forever. If you need basic counts, route the QR through a short link with tracking first, then paste that short address into the generator instead.

Does it work on business cards?

Yes. A small Instagram QR on a card skips the follow step entirely — scan, land, follow. Pair it with a vCard QR and one card does both jobs: save the contact and grow the audience with a single handoff.

What if I change my username?

Generate a new QR with the new profile address. The old code still opens the old address, which keeps working if you set up a redirect — but reprint when you can, so every scan lands on the live profile.

Is it safe to scan a QR code?

Yes — if you check the preview first. Your phone shows the link before opening it. If the address looks wrong, close it. Our codes are static: they hold only text, run nothing, and phone nothing home. The risk never comes from the square itself. It comes from a bad link hiding inside it.

Can a QR code give my phone a virus?

No. A QR code is a picture of text. It cannot run programs or install apps by itself. The worst it can do is open a bad web page — and your phone shows you that address first. Read the preview, skip odd links, and scanning stays safe.

Are free QR code generators safe to use?

Ours is. Everything runs in your browser: your link never leaves your device, nothing is uploaded, nothing is stored. Many free tools upload your data or demand an email first. Ask two questions before any generator: does it need an account, and does my data leave my phone?

What are QR code phishing scams?

Fake codes that point at lookalike login pages to steal passwords. They hide on posters, parking meters, and emails. Defense is simple: read the preview address before tapping, and type important addresses by hand. Our static codes cannot redirect or change after printing, so what you check is what you get.

Do QR codes track me?

Ours cannot. Static codes carry no server, so there is nothing to phone home and nothing to count. Paid dynamic codes are different: they route through a server that logs every scan — city, device, time. If nobody should know you scanned, use a static code from a tool that asks for nothing.

Do QR codes expire?

Ours never do. A static code stores the data inside the pattern itself, so no server exists that could switch it off. Print it on a menu or a van and it scans in ten years. Codes that stop working are dynamic ones whose subscription lapsed — a calendar problem, not a code problem.
