How a location QR code works

A location QR code encodes a Google Maps search link for the address or coordinates you provide — for example https://www.google.com/maps/search/?api=1&query=30.2672,-97.7431. When someone scans it, Maps opens with your spot pinned and a directions button one tap away. It removes the friction of typing an address correctly.

Where location QR codes help

  • Storefronts and restaurants — scan for directions on the door, menu, or flyer.
  • Events and venues — get guests to the right entrance or parking lot.
  • Real estate — a yard-sign QR that opens the property in Maps; see QR for real estate.

Want scan analytics?

This is a static code and cannot be tracked. For scan counts and an editable pin, use a dynamic QR code pointing at your Maps link, or a plain URL QR.

Need trackable QR codes too?

Create dynamic QR codes with real-time scan analytics — editable after printing.

Frequently asked questions

How does a location QR code work?
It encodes a Google Maps link for the address or coordinates you enter. Scanning it opens Maps with your location pinned, ready for directions.
Can I use an address or coordinates?
Both. Type a full address (123 Main St, Austin TX) or latitude,longitude (30.2672,-97.7431). The tool builds a Maps search link either way.
Does it open Apple Maps on iPhone?
It opens the link in the default handler; most iPhones open it in Google Maps or the browser, which then offers directions. For guaranteed Apple Maps, use a maps.apple.com link in a URL QR.
Can I track scans?
Not with this static code. For scan counts and an editable pin, point a dynamic QR at your Maps link — Scanely records every scan.
