Social Media QR Code Generator
Make a QR code for your Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, X, LinkedIn, Facebook, Telegram, Discord or other profile from a username or a pasted link.
A profile QR code turns "find me on Instagram" into one scan. Choose the network, type your username or paste your profile link, and the tool builds the correct profile address, checks the username against that network's rules, draws the code in the colours you choose and decodes it again to confirm it scans. It works for Instagram, Facebook, X, LinkedIn, TikTok, YouTube, Threads, Snapchat, Pinterest, Telegram, Discord invites, GitHub and Spotify, and runs entirely in your browser.
How to use this tool
- Pick the network.
- Type your username (with or without @), or paste the profile link from the app's Share button.
- Choose size and colours — a dark code on a light background scans best — and PNG or SVG.
- Check that the scan check says Passed, then download and print.
Formula
instagram.com/USER/ · tiktok.com/@USER · youtube.com/@USER · x.com/USER · linkedin.com/in/USER · t.me/USER · discord.gg/CODE · github.com/USER
Other templates: facebook.com/USER, linkedin.com/company/NAME, threads.com/@USER, snapchat.com/add/USER and pinterest.com/USER/. Usernames are checked for each network's allowed characters and length (Instagram 30 characters, Telegram 5–32). Pasted links must belong to the chosen network; tracking parameters such as igsh, si and utm_ are removed.
Example
Instagram @nasa becomes https://www.instagram.com/nasa/ — 31 bytes, a version 3 code (29 × 29 modules) at level M. TikTok nasa becomes https://www.tiktok.com/@nasa. The Instagram name bad name! is rejected because spaces and exclamation marks are not allowed.
Frequently asked questions
Will the code still work if I change my username?
No. The username is part of the printed link, so a new username needs a new code — and the old name may later be taken by someone else.
Why are there no network logos?
Network logos are trademarks with strict usage rules, so the code is plain. You can place an official logo next to it following the network's brand guidelines.
Why did my light-on-dark code fail the scan check?
Many phone scanners, like the decoder used here, only read dark modules on a light background. Swap the colours for reliable scanning.
Does it work for private accounts?
Yes, the code opens the profile; people still need to follow or request access as usual.
