Review Summary
Users appreciate that the Offline QR Code Generator is simple, quick, and respects privacy options, making it useful for generating QR codes from URLs. However, common issues include the lack of a white margin causing scanning problems on dark backgrounds, no error feedback when input text is too long, and a significant bug where the last character may be missing from the QR code. The shift to generating shortened URLs by default without clear consent raises privacy concerns for some users. Overall, it works well but could improve usability and transparency.
Pros
- Simple and easy to use.
- Generates QR codes quickly and mostly accurately.
- Privacy-conscious with options to disable online features like dynamic QR code generation.
- Supports creating QR codes from URLs and some editable text.
- Useful for transferring URLs between devices.
Cons
- No white margin or border around QR codes, causing scanning issues on dark backgrounds.
- Failure to generate QR codes correctly for long text inputs without error notification.
- Bug where the last character typed may not be encoded in the QR code.
- Default behavior changed to generating shortened URLs, raising privacy concerns and contradicting offline claims.
- Limited functionality in terms of transferring multiple URLs or browser data beyond single URL codes.
