About the Email QR Code Generator

This generator encodes a standard mailto: URL into a QR code, with optional subject and body parameters pre-filled. When scanned, it opens the user's default email app (Gmail, Apple Mail, Outlook) with everything ready to send. Use it for one-tap support contact, event feedback collection, RSVP flows, or anywhere you want to remove the friction between someone scanning a code and sending you an email.

Questions people ask

How does an email QR code work?

It encodes a mailto: URL into a QR code. When scanned by a phone camera, the OS recognises the mailto: prefix and opens the user's default email app with the To, Subject, and Body fields pre-filled.

Will the recipient see my email address?

The recipient (the person scanning) will see the To address pre-filled in their compose window — that's the whole point. They send from their own email account, so you receive a normal email from them.

Can I include a subject and message body?

Yes. Both are optional but supported. Long bodies are URL-encoded automatically and may exceed some QR code's data capacity — keep the body short for best results.

Does this work on iPhone and Android?

Yes — both treat mailto: URLs identically. The user's default mail app opens with the email pre-filled and ready to send.
