The default but boring QR code generator

When it comes to generating QR codes, the Adobe QR code generator is a to-to option for many. It is simple to use, and is backed by Adobe - the brand behind the professional design tools such as Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign.

However, you will be surprised by the limited styling options offered by the Adobe QR code generator. It generates a normal but boring looking QR code without issues, but if you were to print the QR code on stickers, product packages, posters and so on, you are missing out on the opportunity to make your brand stand out among the competitors.

Make your QR codes stand out

In this article, we will introduce QR Cool, a new product on the market that allows marketers and creators to generate unique-looking QR codes instead of the traditional black-and-white squares of eye sores. Comparison between the QR codes created by Adobe and QR Cool
