Paste your Instagram profile link (e.g. instagram.com/yourhandle) and download a free Instagram QR code. Scanning it opens your profile so people can follow in one tap — no searching for your handle. The code is built in your browser and never uploaded.
To create yours:
Copy your profile URL
Open your profile, tap the menu and “Copy profile URL” — it looks like instagram.com/yourhandle.
Drop the link in the box above
OpenQR reads it as a URL, so there’s nothing else to configure.
Brand it (optional)
Drop in your logo, match your feed’s colours and add a “Follow us on Instagram” frame.
Export with no watermark
PNG for Stories and screens, or vector SVG/PDF for stickers and print.
Repoint it from profile to a drop
Pick “Make it editable” and the printed code becomes a dynamic link you can swap any time — send it to your profile today, a new product drop next week, or your link-in-bio page after that, all without reprinting. The scan count comes free.
Instagram has its own scannable code (formerly the “Nametag”), found under your profile’s share menu. The catch: it only resolves inside Instagram’s own scanner — point a phone camera at it and nothing happens. Use the in-app Nametag for follower-to-follower moments where both people already have the app open, like a meetup or a collab. Use a standard Instagram QR code (the kind this tool makes) for the real world — packaging, a shop window, a flyer, the end of a Reel — because any phone camera reads it, opening your profile in the app for people who have it and in the browser for everyone else. You also own the design and the export, which the in-app version doesn’t allow.
Put it on packaging, flyers, a shop window, your stall, business cards or the end of a video. It works from the native camera on iPhone (iOS 11+) and Android (10+) — no Instagram app screen needed. Want it branded? Add your logo with the logo QR generator.
