Changelog

• Tap + Add under your links to add a Link, a Header, a Video or music player or an Email signup. On your phone the choices open from the bottom of the screen; on a computer they open in a menu.
• Headers group your links with a short title, like “Shop” or “Follow me”. They’re free on every plan.
• Video or music plays right on your page. Paste a link from YouTube, Vimeo, TikTok, Spotify, Apple Music or SoundCloud. Videos fill your page’s width in the right shape, Shorts and TikToks stand tall, and songs show a compact player. Instagram posts and Reels can’t play on the page: tap Add as Link and they show as a “Watch on Instagram” button instead. The player loads when someone taps play, so your page still opens fast on mobile data. If a video or song is made private or removed, your page shows “This video isn’t available” instead of an empty box.
• Email signup lets visitors share their email with you after ticking “I agree to receive emails from” your page. They see a thank-you message right away. Find everyone who signed up in the new Signups tab on your code’s page, with Export CSV and Delete. We only collect the emails for you; we never send emails to them.
• Every new item matches your page’s theme, font, button style and colors, on phones and on computers, and shows in the live preview while you edit.
• The Stats tab now shows plays for each video or song and signups for each Email signup, next to your link taps.
• Move any item with the up and down arrows, or drag it on a computer.
• Video or music and Email signup are on Starter and Pro. If you move to the free plan, they’re kept and hidden from your page until you upgrade again, and your signups stay in your Signups tab.

• Logo library: pick a ready-made icon for the middle of your code instead of uploading one. Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, WhatsApp, WiFi, PDF, Link, Phone, Email, Location, Calendar, Star, Heart, Shopping bag, Menu and Paw. The icon can follow your QR color or gradient, or have its own color.
• Bigger uploads: PNG, JPG, WebP and SVG logos up to 10 MB. We make big pictures smaller for you and remove the location from photos. On your phone, the upload opens your photos or files.
• You’ll see a small picture of your logo with a Remove button. Pick a logo size (Small, Medium or Large) and a logo shape (Square, Rounded or Circle), and keep the background box in any color.
• Codes with a logo still scan, even with a Large logo. A Rounded or Circle logo clears just its own shape, so its background box matches the logo.
• If a long link, the Dot shape and a logo together may not scan when printed small, you’ll see a note under the live preview, and the PNG sizes on the code’s page only include the ones that still scan.
• Frame shapes: Banner as before, plus Rounded banner, Speech bubble, Ticket, Phone outline, Circle badge and Scan me arrow. Each one keeps your frame text, its position, the Frame color and the Text color.
• Frame text font: Modern, Classic, Rounded or Bold. New codes start with Modern; your existing codes keep the font they have. Turn on Match QR colors and the frame uses your QR color, or your gradient when one is on.
• Borders: None, Solid, Rounded, Double, Dashed or Dotted, with your own color, three thicknesses and padding between the code and the border. A border can use your QR gradient too.
• Your code looks the same in the live preview, on its page and in every download: PNG, SVG, EPS, PDF and Download all. Plain black and white leaves them out.
• Logos and the logo library are on Starter and Pro. Every plan can add the Banner with a preset text like “Scan Me”. Your own frame text, frame colors and fonts, the new frame shapes and every border are on Starter and Pro. Your existing codes look exactly as they do today.

• Multi-link pages now have unlimited links on every plan, including Free. Add as many links as you need.
• You can add your photo or logo to a Multi-link page on the Free plan too. Like every photo you upload, it’s saved without location data.
• Themes, fonts, button styles, button text size, a highlighted link and link stats are still on Starter and Pro, and hiding “Powered by AQRHub” is on Pro.
• If your plan changes to Free, your page keeps showing all its links and your photo or logo, in the Clean look with your header color.

• 8 new themes: Sunset, Ocean, Forest, Midnight, Blush, Mono, Neon and Sand, each with its own colors. Every theme shows as a small preview in the editor, so you can see it before you pick it.
• Your own colors: pick the background, button, button text and page text colors. Or tap Match photo and we pick colors from your photo or logo for you.
• Background image: upload a separate image for the Photo background theme, up to 10 MB. It’s made smaller when you upload it, and location data is removed.
• Blur and overlay: keep the photo background blurred or show it sharp, and choose a darker or lighter overlay so your text is always easy to read.
• Banner photo: show your photo wide across the top of the page instead of in a small circle.
• Social icons: add a row of icons under your name for Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, YouTube, X, LinkedIn, WhatsApp, email and phone, apart from your link buttons.
• Your page on computers: on wider screens your page now shows in the middle of the screen exactly as it looks on a phone, with the same photo, buttons and sizes. This is on for every page, including the ones you already have. Prefer the old look? Choose Simple under On computers. Phones always show your page full screen.
• Behind your page on computers: your photo, strongly blurred, or your theme’s background, darker than your page, with a soft shadow around the page. On Starter and Pro, choose a solid color or upload your own image (up to 10 MB, location data removed), blurred to start with.
• The live preview on Create and Edit shows every option, with a Desktop button to see your page on a computer.
• Taps on your social icons show up in Link taps on the Stats tab, one row per icon.
• Themes, your own colors, the background image, the Banner photo, Match photo and social icons are on Starter and Pro. Free pages keep the Clean look with your photo or logo and header color.
• On phones, pages you made before look exactly the same until you change them.

• Give your Multi-link page a handle and get a short, clean link like aqrhub.com/yourname. It’s made for your Instagram, TikTok or other social bio.
• Pick it when you create the page or on its Edit page. We tell you right away if it’s available or taken. Handles use 3 to 30 letters, numbers, dots or underscores, and capital letters don’t matter.
• With a custom domain, the same handle works on it too, like qr.yourdomain.com/yourname.
• Already shared a link with an @ in it, like aqrhub.com/@yourname? It still works and opens the same page.
• Copy link on your page and on your dashboard now copies the handle link. Visits from it show up as link visits in Stats, separate from QR scans.
• Your QR code doesn’t change. Changed your mind? Pick a new handle any time, and your old link keeps working for 90 days.
• Handles are free on every plan, and optional. Pages without one work exactly as before.

• QR code style now has three pickers. Dot shape sets the small squares: Square, Rounded, Circle, Dot and Diamond as before, plus Extra rounded, Classy and Bars.
• Corner frame sets the outer ring of the three big corner squares: Square, Rounded, Extra rounded, Circle, Leaf or Dot. Corner center sets the square inside it: Square, Rounded, Circle, Diamond, Leaf or Star. Auto keeps the corners matched to your dot shape.
• Give the corners their own color, or fill the dots with a gradient of two colors, straight across or out from the center.
• If your colors are too close, or the code is light on a dark background, you’ll see a note that it may not scan on some phones. You can still save it.
• Your code looks the same in the live preview, on its page and in every download: PNG, SVG, EPS, PDF and Download all.
• The new dot shapes, corner frames, corner centers, corner color and gradients are on Starter and Pro. Every plan keeps the five dot shapes and solid colors. Your existing codes look exactly as they do today.

• WiFi codes now come in two kinds. Joins automatically works like before: phones join your network as soon as they scan. Editable opens a simple page with your network name, a Copy password button, a Show password switch and short steps to connect.
• With an Editable WiFi code you can change the network or password any time without reprinting, see how many times it was scanned, and pause it when you need to.
• The Editable page also shows a small WiFi code, so guests can scan it with a second device like a laptop.
• Pick the kind when you create the code. Editable WiFi is on Starter and Pro. Your existing WiFi codes keep working exactly as they do today.

• A cleaner dashboard. Search your codes, filter by type, and see each code’s short link with Copy and Open buttons right next to it.
• Duplicate any code from its menu to start a new one with the same content and design. The copy counts toward your plan’s code limit.
• Pause a code when you don’t need it and resume it later. A paused code shows a short “isn’t active” page instead of its content, and the printed code keeps working once you resume.
• Create and Edit now share one layout with numbered steps, so making a code and changing it later feel the same.
• A live preview sits next to your form. Switch between “After scan” to see the page people get when they scan, and “QR code” to see the code itself.
• Better on phones. Types sit in a tidy grid, the type you picked folds into one line, and the preview opens full screen.

• A redesigned contact page with your photo, header color, and one-tap Call, Text, Email and Save contact buttons.
• Phone numbers are tidied up as you type and dial correctly from anywhere.
• More fields, including a work phone, plus your own custom buttons, like a booking or WhatsApp link.
• Save contact keeps your social links and link buttons, so they land in the phone’s contacts too.
• Share your info: people who scan can send you their details, and get your card back by email. Starter and Pro.
• Your leads in one place, with notes, a follow-up date, a “new leads” badge on your dashboard, and a CSV that opens cleanly in Excel. Starter and Pro.
• Card stats showing views, saves and taps over time. Starter and Pro.

• Multi-link page: one QR code that opens a page with all your links. Free plans get up to 3 links and a header color. Starter and Pro get up to 30 links, a photo or logo, themes, button styles, fonts and a highlighted link.
• Pick a link type like Instagram, TikTok, WhatsApp or phone, and just enter your handle or number.
• Link stats show how many times each link was tapped. Starter and Pro.
• Pro plans can hide “Powered by AQRHub” on Multi-link pages.
• Note, PDF and Multi-link pages have a fresh design that matches the contact page.
• PDF codes now open the document right on the page, with a Download button and the file’s original name. PDF codes are available on Starter and Pro.

• Scan charts and dates now show in your own time zone, so a scan at 9 p.m. counts on the right day.

After you generate a QR code you go straight to its details page, where edit, analytics and every download format sit together. Previously you landed on a confirmation screen with downloads only, so fixing a typo meant finding the code in your dashboard first.

The page has also been reworked to fit on screen without scrolling on desktop.

The Plain option in the row download menu now produces a completely unstyled QR code with a black foreground on a white background and no saved styling. Previously it only reset the colours, so the code's logo, frame and border still came through.

Applies to all four formats: PNG, SVG, EPS and PDF.

Download All ZIP now includes PDF and EPS alongside PNG and SVG. PDF is what most print shops ask for, EPS is for older prepress systems.

Vector formats are on Starter and Pro.

You can now change a QR code's type from its edit page. A vCard code can become a link, an SMS code can become a note, and so on. The QR code image and short link do not change, so anything you have already printed keeps working, and your scan history is preserved.

WiFi codes are the exception. The network details live in the code itself, not behind a link, so the type cannot be changed. To repurpose one, delete it and create a new one.

PDF and EPS added

You can now download any saved QR code as a PDF or an EPS file, alongside PNG and SVG. Both are vector and carry the full styling: logo, frame, border, and pattern.

Vector downloads are now on Starter and Pro

SVG, EPS, and PDF are on Starter and Pro. Free gets the watermarked PNG.

You can now generate up to 100 QR codes from a single CSV upload, double the previous limit. A catalog of 200 products fits in two uploads instead of four. If your file goes over the limit, we'll tell you clearly instead of quietly skipping rows.

Pro plans now include a REST API. Generate dynamic QR codes directly from your own software, in bulk, without logging in to the dashboard. Send a batch of URLs and get back tracked, editable codes with labeled image files ready for print or integration. Create and manage your API keys from your account page.

Clearer guides for shops and companies

Our guides for shops and companies have been expanded with clearer explanations, more real-world examples, and answers to the questions we hear most often. If you are deciding whether a QR code fits your shop or company, or trying to pick the right type, the guide now walks through it in plain language.

Updated Airbnb and vacation rental guides

The Airbnb and vacation rental resources have been refreshed with practical examples for guest WiFi, check-in details, review requests, and managing QR codes across multiple properties. If you run one home or fifty, the guide now covers what to put on each QR code and where to place it in the property.

Easier navigation between related guides

We improved the links between related QR code guides so it is easier to move from one topic to the next. If you are reading about dynamic QR codes, analytics, bulk generation, or an industry-specific solution, related pages are now surfaced right where you need them so you do not have to hunt through the menu.

Preview bulk QR codes without an account

You can now try bulk QR generation before creating an account. Upload a small CSV and get up to three QR codes so you can see the workflow, the output quality, and the file format on real data of your own. When you are ready to generate a full batch, create a free account to continue.

Safer bulk generation

Bulk QR generation now checks every link in your upload against Google Safe Browsing and skips destinations flagged as unsafe instead of creating codes for them. The rest of your batch continues as usual, and we tell you which rows were skipped so you can review and replace them.

Smoother guest bulk experience

The guest bulk preview now handles partially valid uploads more gracefully. Messages are clearer when a link cannot be used, valid rows still generate as expected, and the overall flow from upload to preview is more reliable end to end.

Clearer WiFi QR codes

WiFi QR codes now show only what is real. Because a WiFi code connects your phone straight to the network, there is nothing for our servers to track, so these codes no longer display a scan count. Your network name, password, and the QR code itself are unchanged.

Cancel or resume anytime

You can now cancel your subscription whenever you like from your account page, under Plan and Usage. Canceling keeps your access until the end of your current billing period, and then your account moves to the free plan with all your QR codes intact. Changed your mind? Resume with one click.

The Create and Edit pages now group all customization options into the same four tabs: Style, Logo, Frame, and Border. The Save button stays visible at the bottom of the page as you edit, so you no longer need to scroll back down to apply your changes. Same features, less scrolling.

You can now wrap any QR code in a solid or rounded decorative border, with your choice of color and width up to 20 pixels. Add it on the create page or apply it later from the edit page, and remove or change it anytime without recreating the QR. Available on Starter and Pro plans.

You can now change or remove the center logo on an existing QR code from its edit page, without recreating the QR. The short URL and printed pattern stay the same, so any QR codes you have already printed keep working with the new (or removed) logo. Available on Starter and Pro plans.

Pro users can now serve their QR codes from their own branded subdomain, like qr.yourbusiness.com, instead of aqrhub.com. New QR codes you generate automatically use your domain, and already printed QR codes keep working through aqrhub.com so nothing breaks. Add your subdomain from the new Custom Domain page in your account settings.

QR scan counts are now filtered to exclude hits from email security scanners (Microsoft SafeLinks, Google Safe Browsing, Proofpoint, Mimecast, Barracuda) and known bots. These scanners automatically open URLs in emails to check for malware, and we were previously counting each of those as a real scan.

What changed in your dashboard:

• A new "Verified human scans" metric is now the primary number on your analytics
• "Total redirects" is shown as a secondary number so you can still see the raw count
• When filtered scans are present, we tell you how many were filtered and why

Your existing scan data has been reclassified, so your historical numbers may now be lower, but they reflect actual human engagement more accurately. This matters most if you're sharing QR codes via corporate email systems, where security scanners can inflate counts by 3 to 5 times.

Sign-up now stops automated bots before they can create an account. Real people sign up just as before, with no extra steps.

• Two-factor authentication (2FA). Add an extra layer of security to your account. Turn it on in your account settings and we’ll email you a code every time you sign in.
• The Help Center is here, with step-by-step guides for every QR type and feature.
• Updated Terms of Service, covering file uploads, reporting abuse, how long we keep data, and billing.
• The pricing page now lists WhatsApp and App Download QR codes.

Security

• Links are checked against Google Safe Browsing, and unsafe links are blocked.

• WhatsApp QR codes. Enter a phone number and optional message. Scanning it opens WhatsApp, ready to chat.
• App Download QR codes. iPhone users go to the App Store and Android users go to Google Play, automatically.
• App Download and WhatsApp available on Starter and Pro plans.

• 30-day free trial on all paid plans. Cancel anytime before it ends.
• PDF QR codes. Upload any PDF and share it with a QR code. Swap the PDF anytime without changing the QR code. Available on Starter and Pro.
• Deleted a QR code by accident? You have 7 days to restore it from your dashboard.
• Better protection for your files. Files you upload can only be opened through AQRHub.

• Bulk QR upload. Create up to 50 QR codes at once from a CSV file. Pro plan only.
• The pricing page now lists PDF QR codes.
