I know Edge has this - very handy. You just right-click the page and Edge will generate a QR code for the URL.

I'm currently using this extension which is decent:

Thanks!

Seconded. Firefox Android has the ability to scan QR codes, it makes sense for Firefox Desktop to offer QR codes.

Brave Android Version also has this.

This would be a great addition to the Android/iOS version(s) of Firefox and Firefox Focus, since some browsers (like Chrome/Brave) have customized QR code designs, a Firefox one could have a QR code with a fox (or other Mozilla-related icon) in the middle to show that it was made in Firefox.

A use case for Android Firefox (at least): when you're with friends and want to share a link without having to send it to them or use NFC (which nobody seems to use or know how to use). With the diversity of devices and messaging platforms (FB messenger, imessage, signal, email, SMS ๐Ÿคฎ), a QR code is way easier.

Which is probably why restaurants use QR codes๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ

Qr code generator

Hello Mozilla folks, I hope you're doing wellโ€ฆ

I wish that could activate Qr code generator for pages like brave and chrome

simply by adding QR Code option next to address bar, to generating Qr Image for page so can be share with other devises.

I am proud to be a part of your users, and always thank you all, for making our life safer.

Hi @Jon,

it was planned to develop this feature?
How I can support this idea?

I also discovered this great extention:  https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/offline-qr-code-generator/
It follows the Firefox Photon Design and it works offline, maintaing the privacy first.

It should be great to integrate this add-on in Firefox.

Built-in QR Generator for URL

It would be an amazing tool for developers and to anyone who would feel the need of it, if there was a symbol, beside the favorite symbol, that generated a QR code directing to the actual URL.

I have tried a couple, but they never work by Firefox's command. It is terrible enough that QR Codes are all Java9<, no C++.
