Learn how to customize your QR code's colors and add a logo without affecting its readability.

In LibreQR you can customize your QR code's design so it matches your brand, without affecting how well it scans.

What you can customize

  • Colors: change the color of the code's modules and the background to match your visual identity.
  • Logo or centered image: add your brand's logo or another image in the center of the QR code.

Why does a QR code with a logo still work?

When you add a logo, LibreQR generates the code with a high error correction level. This means the QR code includes enough redundant information to stay readable even though part of it is covered by the center image.

Recommendations for a QR code that scans well

  • Avoid color combinations with low contrast between the background and the modules (for example, light colors on a light background).
  • Keep the center logo a moderate size; if it's too large it can make the code harder to read.
  • Before printing or publishing the code, test it by scanning it with several different phones and apps.

How to customize the design

  1. From your dashboard, create a new QR code or edit an existing one.
  2. Go to the design customization options.
  3. Choose the colors you want for the background and the modules.
  4. Upload the logo or image you want shown in the center.
  5. Generate or save your changes and check the result by scanning the code.
