Product updates, new features, and improvements.
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 Business QR Code guides
The Business QR Code resources have been expanded with clearer explanations, more examples of real business use cases, and answers to the questions we hear most often. If you are deciding whether a QR code fits your business 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:
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.
