Safety note for Location QR codes

Use the share link from Google Maps for your exact place or pin, and test it on both iPhone and Android. A typed address can be ambiguous; a Maps link resolves to the precise spot.

Before you print or publish

  • Scan the finished code with both an iPhone and an Android phone.
  • Keep a clear white margin around the QR code and avoid stretching or cropping it.
  • For print, use high contrast and make the code at least 1 inch (2.5 cm) wide.
  • Confirm the destination, payment recipient, contact details, or network settings before distributing it.

Location QR codes — frequently asked

How do I make a QR code for a location?

In Google Maps, open your place, tap Share, copy the link, paste it above, and download the QR code.

Will it open the map app?

It opens the location in Google Maps or the device’s default map app, ready for directions.

Can I use coordinates instead of a Maps link?
