QR Forever

No expiration date

Free location QR code for maps

A location QR code opens a place in the maps app as soon as it is scanned, so people can get directions. Enter coordinates or an address or place name, and download the code. It uses a standard Google Maps link, is static, and never expires.

You can also turn it into a printable 3D object: a table stand, a keychain, or a wall plaque.

Demo example: replace this link with your own destination. We add HTTPS if it is missing.

Start from a template

Applies shape, text, and style. Keeps the links and credentials you typed. Enter your real destination before sharing.

Preparing your design…

3MF keeps the two colors per part. Assign the filaments in your slicer; automatic assignment depends on the program. STL does not keep colors.

Customize the design

Screen colors are approximate; assign real filaments in the slicer.

Your links, images, and data (Wi-Fi, contacts, messages, events) are processed in this browser and never sent to a server. The files you download do contain the information you encode, including Wi-Fi passwords.

How to make a map QR code

Decide whether to use coordinates or an address.

1

Choose how to name the place

Use latitude and longitude for an exact spot, or type an address or place name. Nothing is looked up here: the text goes into the map link.

2

Style the code

Choose colors for your flyer, invitation, or sign, keeping strong contrast between the code and its background.

3

Download and test

Download PNG or SVG. Scan a printed sample and check that the map pin lands where you meant it to.

Making a map QR code useful

Coordinates are exact

Addresses can be ambiguous or missing for rural places and new buildings. Coordinates from your map app pin the exact entrance.

No expiry, no server

The map link is stored in the code. QR Forever does not store the place or track who scans.

Test it on site

Open the result on a phone and confirm the pin. If a name returns several results, add the city.

A sign that stays put

For entrances, trailheads, or event spaces, a plaque keeps the directions available.

Common questions

About location QR codes

What organizers and shop owners usually ask.

Which maps app opens?

The code is a Google Maps search link. Phones typically open it in Google Maps or the maps app they have set as default for such links.

How do I get coordinates?

In most map apps you can long-press a spot to see its latitude and longitude. Use values between -90 and 90 for latitude and -180 and 180 for longitude.

Does the location QR code expire?

No. The code holds the link. If the place moves, make a new code; the old one keeps pointing to the old spot.

Does QR Forever look up my address?

No. The address is put into the link as typed, and only the maps app resolves it when someone scans.
