Free Snapchat QR Code Generator
A Snapchat QR code opens your Snapchat 'add friend' page, so people can add you without searching for your username and picking the right account. Creators, campus clubs and event hosts use it on posters, name tags and projected slides.
Snapchat's own Snapcode only scans inside the Snapchat app. A QRdx code is a normal QR code that any phone camera can read; it opens snapchat.com/add/yourname, which hands off to the Snapchat app when it's installed and shows your profile on the web when it isn't.
How to create a Snapchat QR code
- 1Type your Snapchat username (not your display name).
- 2Check that the encoded link ends with /add/yourname.
- 3Scan the preview to make sure your add-friend page opens.
- 4Download the code as PNG or SVG.

Snapchat QR code FAQ
What's the difference from a Snapcode?
A Snapcode is Snapchat's own code format and only scans inside Snapchat. A QR code works with the normal camera app as well.
Where do I find my username?
In Snapchat, open your profile; the username appears under your display name.
What if Snapchat isn't installed?
The link opens snapchat.com in the browser, which shows your profile and offers to open or get the app.
What if I change my Snapchat username?
Snapchat allows occasional username changes, and the old username stops pointing to you. Generate a new code after changing it.
