Frequently asked questions
What is a Medium QR code?
A Medium QR code encodes the URL https://medium.com/@yourusername so anyone who scans it lands on your Medium writer profile, where they can browse all your published articles.
Do I include the @ symbol in my username?
No — enter your username without the @ symbol. The generator automatically builds the correct medium.com/@username URL for you.
Can I create a QR code for a specific Medium article?
This tool links to your author profile. To link to a specific article, use the URL QR code generator and paste the full article URL.
What are the best uses for Medium QR codes?
Speaking event handouts, author business cards, press kits, book introductions, printed article excerpts, newsletter footers, and conference workshop materials where you want to drive attendees to read more of your writing.
Does the Medium QR code work for publications too?
Medium publication URLs follow a different pattern (medium.com/publication-name). Use the URL QR code generator with the full publication URL to link to a Medium publication.
What if I move my writing to a different platform?
A static QR code is permanently tied to your Medium URL. If you migrate to another platform, use Dynamic QR to redirect scans to your new writing home without reprinting materials.
