Most QR codes look like something a printer coughed up. QR-Verse makes ones you would actually put on a menu, a poster or a business card, and then shows you what happens after people scan them. MAKE A CODE 27 code types, grouped five ways. β€’ Basic: website link, plain text, Wi-Fi, GS1 barcode β€’ Contact: vCard, email, SMS, WhatsApp, phone β€’ Social: Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, LinkedIn, X, YouTube β€’ Media: PDF, image, video, audio β€’ Business: location, event, payment, App Store link, menu, review request, Digital Product Passport, GS1 Digital Link Pick a type, fill in the fields, tap create. Static codes are unlimited on every plan. Media codes hand the file upload over to qr-verse.com and come straight back. STYLE IT WITH AI Open AI Studio, describe the look you want in your own words, and the app designs variants of your code. Not sure where to start? The gallery holds sixteen looks our team trained, scanned and validated, each with its own scan score out of 100. Free generations unlock after two short ads. Paid plans drop the ads. SEE WHAT YOUR CODES DO Your dashboard counts total scans and unique scanners, ranks the codes that are actually pulling their weight, and shows which countries your scans came from and whether people scanned on a phone or a computer. Dynamic codes point at a short link instead of a fixed address, so you can edit the destination after the code is printed. The sticker stays. The link moves. SCAN WITHOUT LEAVING THE APP The built-in scanner reads links, Wi-Fi, contacts, email, SMS, phone numbers, locations, events and plain text, and recognises a QR-Verse code on sight. Copy it, open it, share it, or save the image to your library. STAY IN THE LOOP Notifications are optional and off until you say otherwise. When you turn them on, you hear about it when scans spike or drop, when a code is about to expire, when your AI art is ready, and once a week in summary. SEVEN LANGUAGES, ONE ACCOUNT English, Dutch, German, French, Spanish, Italian and Portuguese. Switch language in the app and it changes on the spot. Sign in with your QR-Verse account and your codes are the same ones you see on qr-verse.com. PLANS Free: unlimited static codes, one dynamic code, the scanner, scan counts, and AI art after a short ad. Banner ads appear on the home and analytics screens. Pro: more dynamic codes, the full analytics dashboard, your logo on your codes, a bigger AI Studio allowance, and no ads anywhere. Business: everything in Pro, plus the Digital Product Passport and GS1 Digital Link code types. Prices are shown inside the app in your own currency. A subscription renews until you cancel it, and you can manage or cancel it any time in your App Store account settings. You will need a free QR-Verse account. It takes an email address and about thirty seconds.
