Make a QR code that opens Apple Maps exactly how you want - a search, a pinned location, or turn-by-turn directions - on iPhone, iPad, and Mac. Static and free forever, no account.

## What the video covers

1. **Choose what the code should do**  - Pick an action: search for an address or keyword, view a location by coordinates, or get directions to a destination.
2. **Fill in the details**  - Enter the address, keyword, or "latitude, longitude" - plus an optional pin label, zoom level, transport mode (driving, walking, or transit), and map type (standard, satellite, hybrid, or transit).
3. **Download the QR code**  - Download as PNG, JPG, or SVG. Use SVG for print so the code stays sharp at any size. The map link is encoded into the pattern, so it needs no service behind it and never expires.
4. **Test on a real Apple device**  - Scan with an iPhone, iPad, or Mac to confirm Apple Maps opens the right result before printing a batch. For the widest reach, also offer a Google Maps QR code.
