QR Code generator

I just use Barcode Scanner to generate QR codes. You can generate QR codes from URLs, apps, whatever text is in your clipboard, and contacts. The only hiccup is that it doesn't give you an option to just save the QR code to your device, but you can send it to Snaptic, Picasa, email it to yourself, etc. As well, the 3Banana app creates QR codes of your notes.

And FYI, the above mentioned easyshare app allows you to share anything to a QR code, not just apps.

Dont know whether it is exactly what you are after, but I have used www.qrstuff.com to create QR codes.

It lets you do text, URLs, telephone numbers, contact details, google map locations, etc.

You can then email/copy the image that is created and save it to your phone.
ya there is a lot of good web sites but personally I was just hoping for "an app for that"

How do you read a qr code if it's sended to your phone by mail by example? you have the attachment in gmail and is a qr code, but barcode scanner don't decrypt from stored files.

There is a program for decoding qr codes from files? i have a friend who send me files with qr codes, and i have to send to my PC, put the image on the screen and point with the camera with barcode scanner to decode, maybe a program can decode directly from files.

Hi,

I know I'm late but this is how you can solve this:

- Download "QR Droid" from the market
- Open email with QR image attached and download it
- Open downloaded image from notification bar
- Select Menu > Share > Decode with QR Droid

Let me know if that helped you
