Pretty QR

A QR code that plays a voice message or audio file

Record a message or pick an audio file. Print the code on a card, a gift, or a sign, and the person who scans it hears it on their phone.

Make your audio QR codeOne file $4.99, paid once

What to put behind it

  • A voice message in a card

    Birthdays, weddings, and goodbyes: say what does not fit on paper.

  • An audio guide

    One code per stop in a museum, a garden, or a city walk.

  • A song or a demo

    A track on a poster, a CD sleeve, or merch.

  • A podcast sample

    A first episode on a flyer, with no app to install.

How it works

  1. 1Open the speech bubble template and choose File under Content.
  2. 2Upload your audio file (MP3, M4A, AAC, WAV, OGG, or FLAC). Pay once if you do not have Pro.
  3. 3Download the QR code and print it. Scan it with your phone to test.

Price

Hosting one file is $4.99, paid once. Pro is $39 once and hosts up to 10 files.

  • Hosted with no time limit
  • Replace the file any time, and the printed code keeps working
  • No subscription
  • No app needed to open it

Anyone with the code can open the file, so put only what you are happy to share on it. The browser gets a link that works for one hour: a link copied from the address bar stops working, while the printed code keeps working.

Questions

How long can the recording be?
The limit is 50 MB. That is about 50 minutes of MP3 or M4A at 128 kbps, but only about 5 minutes of uncompressed WAV. Use MP3 or M4A for anything long.
Can I upload an iPhone voice memo?
Yes. Voice Memos saves M4A files, which we accept. Share the memo to Files, then upload it from there.
How does it play on the phone?
In the browser's own audio player. The person taps play; there is no app, account, or streaming service involved.
