Free App Store / Google Play QR Code Generator
Send people to your app's iOS App Store or Google Play listing with a scan, instead of asking them to search for it by name.

Colors
⚠ Low contrast may make your QR code difficult to scan.
Advanced customization
Style
Keep sufficient whitespace around the QR code for reliable scanning.
Higher error correction can help when a QR code is partially obscured, but it produces a denser pattern.

Test your QR code before printing or publishing it. Scan it with your phone to confirm it opens the correct destination.
QR information is processed locally in your browser and isn't uploaded to ClearQR's servers.
Telling someone to "search for our app" is a surprisingly weak call to action: wrong spelling, wrong app entirely, or the search just doesn't happen. An app store QR code removes that step by opening the listing directly.
Since ClearQR runs entirely in your browser with no backend to detect which device is scanning, this generator takes both an iOS and an Android link and does its best with whichever ones you provide, rather than promising a redirect it can't actually deliver.
How to create an App Store / Google Play QR Code
- Copy your app's link from App Store Connect or the Google Play Console.
- Paste the iOS link, the Android link, or both into the fields above.
- Style the code to match your packaging or marketing materials.
- Download it and add it to packaging, a receipt, or an ad.
Customizing your QR code
If your audience is mixed iOS and Android, consider two separate QR codes, one labeled "iOS" and one labeled "Android", rather than a single code that can only open one store. If you fill in both links here, the code defaults to the iOS App Store link, since there's no way for a static QR code to detect the scanning device on its own.
Where to use an App Store / Google Play QR Code
- App packaging or an insert card, linking to the correct store listing.
- A receipt or in-app screen prompting a rating via the store link.
- A launch ad or landing page pointing to the download page.
- A physical product's manual, linking to a companion app.
Testing your QR code
Before printing or publishing any QR code, test it yourself: scan it with your phone's camera from a normal viewing distance and confirm it opens the destination you intended. If you're printing it small or on a textured surface, test that exact size and material. A code that scans easily on a screen can struggle once it's shrunk onto a napkin or embossed on packaging.
Static QR codes, explained
ClearQR creates static QR codes. The information you enter (a URL, a phone number, contact details) is encoded directly into the QR code's pattern, so the generated code doesn't depend on ClearQR's servers to keep working.
The destination itself, though, still needs to remain available: if you delete the page a QR code points to, the code will still scan, but visitors will land on a dead link. If you need to change the destination later, create a new QR code; a static code can't be redirected after it's printed.

Frequently asked questions
Can this QR code detect whether someone is on iOS or Android?
No. ClearQR is a static, backend-free generator, so it can't inspect the scanning device. If both links are filled in, the code uses the iOS App Store link; fill in only one field for a guaranteed single destination, or generate two separate codes for a mixed audience.
Do I need both an iOS and Android link?
No, either one works on its own. Fill in whichever platform you want the code to open, or both if you're comfortable with the iOS-first fallback described above.
Will this code keep working if I update my app?
Yes, as long as your app's store listing stays at the same URL, which is the normal case for app updates. The destination itself, though, still needs to remain available: if you delete the page a QR code points to, the code will still scan, but visitors will land on a dead link. If you need to change the destination later, create a new QR code; a static code can't be redirected after it's printed.
Are my app links stored anywhere?
