YouTube QR Code Generator
A QR code for a video link, with tracking parameters stripped so the code stays simple.
Tracking parameters are stripped — the QR code points at a clean youtu.be link.
Same job, one API call
Runs in your browser — the code is drawn locally and no link is sent anywhere.
Questions
Why strip tracking parameters first?
Every character in a URL makes the QR pattern denser and harder to scan small. A clean youtu.be link keeps the modules large.
Can I print the QR code?
Yes — copy the generated code into your layout and keep it at least about 2 cm square so the modules stay crisp. Test-scan a printed copy before a full run.
Does the QR code expire?
No — it encodes the video URL directly, not a redirect through this site. As long as the video stays up at that address, the code resolves.
