Description from store

The QR Code Generator (TQRCG) Chrome Extension allows you to quickly generate a QR code for the current webpage and scan QR codes using your webcam. With a single click, it creates a QR code from the URL of the active tab and displays it in a clean, compact pop-up.

Trusted by over 600,000+ active users, and completely free for everyone.
This extension is designed to be fast, lightweight, and privacy-friendly. It does not request access to your browser data, tabs, or history. It only runs when you click the extension icon, so it uses no memory or resources in the background.

All QR Code generation happens entirely offline. The URL you visit is never sent over the internet unless you choose to open the "Edit QR Code" option, which redirects to www.the-qrcode-generator.com. This makes it a highly secure and private option for creating QR Codes directly in your browser.

Key Features
- Generate a QR code from the current tab with one click
- Scan QR codes using your webcam
- No special permissions required
- Fully offline QR code generation for maximum privacy
- Minimalist popup interface for quick access
- Lightweight and resource-efficient
- Optional link to edit and customize the QR code on the website

Where can you use TQRCG QR Codes?
- Add QR codes to packaging or signage to direct customers to digital content.
- Collect instant customer feedback in restaurants, retail, or service industries.
- Link printed materials to websites, videos, or downloads without manual typing.
- Share digital business cards at events using vCard QR codes.
- Enable mobile app downloads or multi-language landing pages with one scan.
- Track performance of offline marketing with detailed scan analytics.
- Use dynamic QR codes for campaigns that require flexibility and updates.

Fox MacDonald 2022-07-29: I've been using this app for ages and like others, find it really useful. It's great for those sites that have insanely long web addresses, or if you want to quickly grab it when you're rushing out of the house but still want to read. It doesn't require any permissions, it isn't constantly using memory as it only loads when you use it - then unloads straight away, is quick and instant, and even loaded has the smallest memory footprint of all my extensions.

Hong Koon 2021-11-19: You have no idea how much this helps consider google has removed the direct access to QR code in the latest browser update Also it works way better than the actual chrome QR code because the QR code is way bigger on this extension

万凸三 2021-02-06: 感谢开发者。谢谢。它帮助了很多。但是我要移除它了。因为chrome已经支持这个功能了。
Franklin Barreto 2021-02-02: Excelente, super útil 👍
Alexander Gräf 2020-12-05: Works as described, and I use it regularly in web development when I want to test a website on my phone. Just use the QR code to quickly transfer the URL to the phone. One change I'd like to see is the icon getting a white background (with proper quiet zone of course), as the icon in the toolbar really looks ugly when using the browser in dark mode, i.e. the toolbar having a dark background.

Sky 2020-10-14: Though this hasn't been updated in a while, I use it just about every day and love it, it still works perfectly. Thanks for creating a very solid piece of software. If I could have anything changed about it, it'd be nice to have a light-colored icon to be visible on the bar in dark themes, but I use this anyway because it's no-muss, no-fuss, and lightweight.

Rafael D' França 2020-07-24: Muito boa a extensão e simples. Quebra muito o galho para transferir links para o celular.
Pedro Sancho 2020-04-06: Très pratique pour partager rapidement un article avec son téléphone, devrait être intégré de base dans tout les navigateurs.
le zou 2020-03-14: 好用，手机直接扫码打开网址，再不用通过其他平台复制粘贴给手机
H4RD3R 2020-03-05: Сделайте инверсию иконки для тёмных тем!
Bbb Michael 2020-02-19: 非常喜欢！！简洁方便好用！！
Kevyn Tuleu 2020-01-10: Sensational, very good. I would only give two suggestions that I think are important: 1 - The logo in dark theme can hardly see, put a beautiful logo mixed with the green of the site 2 - I can not edit directly in the extension, this would facilitate a lot of quick uses (it opens with the URL but lets you change)
