QRaft vs Canva QR
A dedicated, no-account QR tool vs a QR feature inside a design editor. Here's when each makes sense.
Try QRaft free →Canva's QR generator is handy when you're already designing a poster or social post inside Canva — but it needs a Canva account and mainly turns a URL into a QR code. QRaft is a dedicated tool: open it, pick a type, download — no account, no editor to learn. And it covers far more than links: WiFi, vCard, WhatsApp, SMS, Google Maps, calendar events, UPI, crypto, and 1D barcodes too.
