Frequently asked questions
What is a QR code and why do you need a generator?
A QR (Quick Response) code is a two-dimensional barcode that encodes data — typically a URL — that any smartphone camera can read instantly. They appear on restaurant menus, product packaging, event tickets, business cards, and print advertising. A QR generator converts your URL into that scannable image. Most basic generators produce a plain black-and-white code with no customization. Alshorty's generator lets you match the QR to your brand — colors, gradients, dot styles, logo — all without paying or watermarking.
Why shorten your URL before making a QR code
A QR code is only as good as the URL inside it. Long URLs create denser, harder-to-scan QR codes. Short URLs produce cleaner, more scannable codes — and if you shorten with Alshorty, every scan becomes a tracked click. You can see how many scans happened, from which country, on which device, from which referrer. This turns a static QR code into a live analytics asset.
SVG vs PNG — which format to download
Use SVG for anything that will be printed — business cards, flyers, packaging, signage. SVG is a vector format that scales to any size without pixelation. Use PNG for digital contexts — websites, emails, social posts, presentations. For safety, download both: the SVG for your designer and the PNG for immediate use.
