How to Make a FaceTime QR Code

To make a FaceTime QR code, pick a video or audio call, enter the phone number or Apple ID email to reach, and download the generated code. When someone scans it on an Apple device, FaceTime offers to start the call to that contact. The call details are encoded directly into the QR pattern, so the code needs no service behind it and never expires.

Ways to Use a FaceTime QR Code

Step-By-Step

  1. Choose video or audio depending on the kind of call you want to start.
  2. Enter the phone number or Apple ID email the call should reach.
  3. Decide whether to confirm first. Turn on "Confirm before the call starts" for public or printed codes so people aren't surprised by an instant call.
  4. Download the QR code as PNG, JPG, or SVG. SVG stays sharp at any print size.
  5. Test it on an iPhone or Mac before printing a batch.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I make a FaceTime QR code?

Choose a video or audio call, enter the phone number or Apple ID email to reach, and download the generated QR code. When someone scans it on an iPhone, iPad, or Mac, FaceTime offers to start the call to that contact.

What is the difference between the prompt and non-prompt versions?

Tick "Confirm before the call starts" and the code uses the prompt variant, which asks the person to confirm before FaceTime dials. Leave it off and scanning can start the call more directly. The confirm option is the safer choice for public or printed codes.

Does a FaceTime QR code work on Android?

FaceTime is an Apple feature, so the call itself only starts on an iPhone, iPad, or Mac. Newer FaceTime links can let others join from a browser, but a scheme-based FaceTime QR code is aimed at Apple devices. For a universal option, pair it with a phone or SMS QR code.

Can I use an email instead of a phone number?

Yes. Enter either the phone number or the Apple ID email address associated with the person you want to reach on FaceTime. Both are supported.

Is the FaceTime QR code free?

Yes. FaceTime QR codes are static — the call details are encoded directly into the pattern — so they are free forever with no watermark, no scan limit, and no expiry. No account required.
