Facebook QR Code

One mode stores the page or profile URL itself.

Everything runs in this browser. Text, files and the finished image are not sent to a server.

Pick a look — colours, modules, frame and caption. Works with any content type; your fields stay as they are.

What does a style template change?

It applies colours, module style, a decorative frame and a short caption. Your field values stay as you left them. The frame and caption are drawn outside the quiet zone, so they are not part of the encoded data.

Which download formats include the frame and caption?

PNG, SVG and PDF. EPS stays a classic unframed monochrome code, because that format is meant for simple print workflows.

Does the caption get encoded in the QR code?

No. A scanner reads only the QR modules. The caption is a label on the card, fitted in at most two lines, including in Arabic (right to left).

Can I still change colours after picking a template?

Yes. A template is a starting style. You can adjust colours and download again. Switching templates or type pages does not clear the fields you already filled in.

Can I use a style with a different content type?

Yes. Styles are only looks. A review-card look works on a website URL, Wi-Fi, vCard or any other type. Changing the content type keeps the style you picked.

Customise Colours, shapes, size, border and centre mark. Optional — a style template already sets these.

The image stays in this browser. It is not uploaded. Adding one switches error correction to H.

How to use it

  1. 1

    Choose whether the scan should open a page or a share sheet.

  2. 2

    Paste the Facebook URL, or the link to share.

  3. 3

    Create the code and test it while signed out, if you want to see what a visitor sees.

What it does

One mode stores the page or profile URL itself. The other stores Facebook’s public share address for a link you provide.

In page mode the URL is normalised and encoded as a static web address. In share mode the tool builds a facebook.com/sharer link for the address you enter.

Why it works this way

This is not an official Facebook product, and it does not log you in or post on your behalf. It only writes a URL into a symbol.

If a page is later renamed or removed, the printed code still holds the old address. We cannot retarget it.

A share sheet still requires the visitor to be able to reach Facebook and, if they post, to use their own account.

Examples

https://www.facebook.com/example
https://www.facebook.com/example
page mode encodes the address as given, after a scheme check
share https://example.com/hours
https://www.facebook.com/sharer/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fexample.com%2Fhours
share mode points at Facebook’s public share endpoint for that link

Inputs and outputs

  • a Facebook URL, or a link to share
  • a static QR symbol whose payload is a web address

Edge cases

  • javascript URLs are rejected
  • a removed Facebook page will still be the payload of an old print

Frequently asked questions

Do you have access to my Facebook account?

No. Nothing is authorised, and no post is made by this site.

Why is this a separate page from the URL tool?

So a search for a Facebook code lands on a page that also explains the share option, which is a slightly different URL.

Do you store what I type on this page?

No. For a static code, encoding happens in your browser. We do not upload or keep the payload.

Will the printed code still work if this site is offline?

Yes for a static code: the content is in the image. A Dynamic URL code is different — a scan needs this site to redirect, and we do not guarantee that it will stay online.

Do style templates change what a scanner reads?

No. The decorative frame and caption sit outside the quiet zone. Only the QR modules are encoded. Framed styles download as PNG, SVG or PDF; EPS stays an unframed monochrome code.
