How to Make a Location QR Code

Make a QR code that opens a spot on the map - point it at an address or exact coordinates, download the code, and print it. Static and free forever, no account.

What the video covers

  1. Choose address or coordinates - Pick 'Address or place name' for a normal street address or landmark, or 'Coordinates' for an exact pin with no address - a trailhead, festival gate, or parking lot.
  2. Enter the location - Type the address, or paste the latitude and longitude. To get coordinates, right-click the spot in Google Maps (long-press on mobile) and copy them - latitude first, then longitude.
  3. Download the QR code - Download as PNG, JPG, or SVG. SVG stays sharp on signs and brochures at any print size.
  4. Scan-test it on both phones - Modern iPhone and Android cameras read the code and offer to open it in Apple Maps or Google Maps - no separate app needed. Scan-test on both before printing.
