Fast QR Code Generator for Chrome

The popularity of QR codes has increased over the last few years, what with their ability to convey information in a concise and practical manner. You simply need to scan one such code in order to be prompted with various details on an event, for instance, without the need to type anything in your browser.

Fast QR Code Generator for Chrome is a browser extension that helps you create a code in the blink of an eye so that you can send it to your phone.

First off, as suggested by its name, the addon is aimed at Chrome users who want to generate a QR code based on any text they see fit. Once the extension is installed, clicking its icon in the toolbar is all it takes to start customizing your code.

By default, the website you are currently visiting is turned into a QR code, but you can always edit the URL along with the page’s title. The QR code is automatically displayed in the popup, with any modifications being reflected in the image in real time, and once scanned with the help of your phone, you can access all the information it contains.

It is also worth mentioning that all visited URLs are stored so that the addon can easily create a QR code. Aside from that, in case you are skeptical about the addon and suspect it can only convert websites to QR codes, you may want to know that typing your own text is an option.

Other than that, users might be interested to know that the “Settings” section allows them to customize the QR size by inspecting a drop-down menu.

And that’s about all the browser extension can provide you with. While its characteristic ease of use and responsiveness are two factors that deserve your attention, you should know that the feature set it puts at your disposal is rather modest, with our main complaint being related to the lack of the save functionality, which would allow you to store your QR code for later use, outside the browser.
