Everyday Tools & Generators
QR codes and passwords generated locally — no expiry, no watermark, no tracking, nothing stored.
About these everyday tools & generators
This category collects the small generators people reach for in the middle of another task: a QR code for the Wi-Fi password, a menu, a payment link; a strong password for the account being created right now. The tools are simple. What this category is really about is refusing the two business models that usually come attached to them. QR generators on the open web typically mint a code that points at their own redirect service, so the code can be metered, tracked — and switched off when the free trial ends, leaving a dead square printed on a menu. Password tools ask you to trust that a server-side generator isn't logging what it made for you. Neither model is necessary, and neither is used here.
A QR code from Kwikfig encodes your payload directly — the URL itself, the WIFI: string your phone's camera understands, the mailto: or tel: link — with nothing in between, so it cannot expire, cannot be metered and reports nothing to anyone when scanned. The Password Generator builds its randomness from your browser's cryptographic source, the same getRandomValues API security libraries use, with rejection sampling so no character is favoured, and it shows the entropy of what it made in bits so 'strong' is a number rather than an adjective. The passphrase mode swaps character soup for a string of ordinary words, which is long, typeable and honest about its maths too.
Everything in this category is generated on your device and exists only in your tab. The QR image is rendered locally and downloaded straight from the page; the password is never transmitted, stored or remembered — close the tab and both are gone, which is precisely what you want from a tool whose whole output is a secret or a key to one. If a generator ever asks you to create an account to download your own QR code, or generates your password on its server, you are not the customer of that tool. Here, there is nothing to sign up for.
Frequently asked questions
Will QR codes made here expire or stop working?
No. The code encodes your payload directly — the actual URL, Wi-Fi credentials or contact details — with no redirect through Kwikfig or any other service. There is nothing to expire, no scan tracking and no subscription; a code printed today resolves the same way in ten years, as long as the destination itself still exists.
Are the generated passwords sent or stored anywhere?
No. Passwords are generated in your browser using its cryptographic random source (crypto.getRandomValues) and are never transmitted or stored. Close or refresh the tab and the password is unrecoverable from the site — save it in your password manager when you generate it.
What makes a generated password strong?
Length multiplied by unpredictability, measured as entropy in bits: each character drawn from a pool of size N adds log2(N) bits. A 16-character password from the full 82-character set carries about 102 bits — far beyond brute force — while a passphrase of five ordinary words carries about 33 bits plus whatever a separator, capitalisation and a digit add. Both tools show the figure for the settings you choose.
