Is my phone number sent to a server?

No. The QR code is generated entirely in your browser using a client-side library. The number never leaves your device.

What happens when someone scans the code?

Their phone camera detects the tel: link and offers to open it in the dialer app, with the number already filled in. They still have to tap call themselves.

Do I need to include the country code?

Yes, for the number to dial correctly from any country. Pick a country code from the dropdown, or type the full number starting with + if you already know the international format.

What is error correction level and which should I pick?

It controls how much of the QR code can be damaged or obscured (like a logo) and still scan. Medium (M) works well for most prints; choose High (H) if the code will be small or printed on a rough surface.

Can I download the QR code as SVG?

Yes. SVG is a vector format, so it stays sharp at any print size, which is useful for posters or large signage. PNG is better for quick sharing or embedding in documents.

Will this work with extensions or dashes in the number?

Dashes, spaces, and parentheses are stripped automatically. Extensions are not supported by the tel: URI standard, so enter the direct dial number only.

Summary

This tool builds a standard tel: URI from the phone number and country code you choose, then renders it as a scannable QR code entirely in your browser. Scanning the code with a phone camera opens the dialer app with that number already filled in, ready to call. Nothing is uploaded to a server.
