APPLE / 01

Create an Apple Calendar invite and share it via QR code

Fill in the invite above and download the finished QR. When an iPhone user scans it with a compatible scanner, the standard iCalendar data can be opened in Apple Calendar for review and saving. Put the location and arrival notes in their dedicated fields so they appear with the invite.

GOOGLE / 02

Add to Google Calendar via QR

Google Calendar understands the same iCalendar event format. Android users can scan the code and choose a compatible calendar app to add it. Because camera and scanner behavior varies, always test the final code on your audience's likely devices before printing.

Frequently asked questions

What is a calendar event QR code?

It is a QR code containing an iCalendar event. A compatible scanner or calendar app reads the title, dates, location, and description and lets the person add the event.

Does this work with Apple Calendar?

Yes. The generator uses the standard iCalendar format understood by Apple Calendar. Scan and confirm the event details before saving the invite.

Can people add the event to Google Calendar?

Yes. Google Calendar supports iCalendar events. The exact handoff depends on the phone and QR scanner, so test the code on the devices your audience is likely to use.

Can I include a venue and event notes?

Yes. Add a venue name, address, or map link in the location field and include useful instructions or links in the description.

Can I change the event after printing the QR code?

No. This is a static QR code, so its event details cannot change after download. Generate and print a new QR code if the schedule changes.

Is the calendar QR code free and private?

Yes. It is free, requires no signup, and the event payload is generated locally in your browser.
