Free QR Code Lock Screen Generator
Turn your phone into a business card. Paste your link, pick a style and get an animated lock screen with a QR code that people can scan, as a video and an image.
How to make a QR code lock screen
- Paste the link the code should open: your website, booking page, menu, WhatsApp link or bio page.
- Add a headline and a short call to action such as "Scan to book".
- Pick a style, your phone and your colors.
- Create it, download the video or the image and set it as your lock screen.
Where a QR code lock screen helps
- Events, trade fairs and meetups: show your phone instead of handing out business cards.
- Shops, cafes and salons: the phone at the counter opens the menu, the booking page or the review link.
- Sales people and real estate agents: share your contact page or a listing in one scan.
- Creators and photographers: send people straight to your portfolio or bio page.
Why an animated lock screen
A QR code on your lock screen is the fastest way to share a link in person: you wake the phone and the other person scans it. No app, no typing, no paper.
The motion catches the eye, but the code itself never moves. Every lock screen is rendered on our servers and the QR code is decoded before you get it, so it scans. The video loops for 12 seconds, which Samsung phones accept as a lock screen; the image works on every phone.
Frequently asked questions
Is the QR code lock screen generator really free?
Yes. You can create one animated lock screen per day without signing up. With a Brandlix account you can create more, put your logo into the code and use your own photo as background, for 1 media credit each.
Will the QR code scan from my lock screen?
Yes. The code sits on a white tile with a quiet zone, uses high error correction and never moves. We decode every lock screen before you get it; if a design would not scan, it is not delivered. Turn the screen brightness up when people scan.
Can I use a moving lock screen on iPhone?
iPhone does not take a video as lock screen. Use the image as wallpaper. If you want motion, turn the video into a Live Photo with a converter app; iOS 17 and later can play a Live Photo when the phone wakes.
Which links can the QR code open?
Any http or https link: your website, a booking or menu page, a WhatsApp chat link, a review page or your bio page. The code holds your link directly, without a redirect through us.
Does the QR code expire?
No. It is a static QR code that contains your link, so it works for as long as the link itself works.
What size are the files?
iPhone: 1290 x 2796 pixels. Android: 1080 x 2400 pixels. The video is a seamless 12-second loop in MP4, the image is a PNG.
