QwiRky

A QR code generator and reader for Windows, built on one idea: you should never have to hope a code works.

Most QR tools hand you an image and wish you luck. QwiRky exports your code, reads it back with a scanner engine, and shows you what actually came out. If it won't scan, you find out before you print a thousand flyers — and QwiRky offers to repair it. A contrast guard grades every change as you make it and tells you the moment a design stops being readable, so styling a code and keeping it scannable stop being opposites.

Your code also carries its contents directly — the website, the Wi‑Fi network, the contact details are in the code, not behind someone's redirect service. So there is no link to go dead, no scan limit, and no invoice to keep a code you already printed working.

Why it's different

• Checked before you get it — every export is decoded and read back, so what you print is what a scanner reads.
• It offers to fix it — a code that fails the check isn't just flagged, it's repaired.
• Codes that never expire — the data is in the code, so no redirect service, no scan limits, no renewal fee.
• Nothing leaves your PC — the app makes no network connections at all; its Store package declares no network capability.
• Nothing is written to disk — what you type into a code is held in memory only. A Wi‑Fi password is exactly why.
• Pay once — no subscription, no credits, no ads, no watermark.

What it does

• Seven kinds of code — text, a website, a Wi‑Fi network, a contact, an email, an SMS or a phone number.
• Style it properly — module and corner shapes, gradients, a transparent background, or a picture in the middle.
• Colours from your own photo — lift a palette from an image and the contrast guard grades the result as you go.
• Ready to print — PNG, WebP or JPEG up to 2048 px, or SVG: vector, no resolution at all, as crisp on a shop sign as on a phone.
• It reads codes too — from a file, the clipboard, or a box you draw anywhere on screen.
• A scan does nothing on its own — a code you scanned came from a picture someone else made, so QwiRky shows you what's in it and leaves every action to you.
• Eleven languages — with High Contrast and screen-reader support throughout.
