On macOS, QR Factory can be launched via the command line to generate single or multiple QR codes. All the features that are normally available are also provided through the CLI. It even supports the standard input and output streams for redirecting the generated QR codes, or providing the content from another tool.
In addition to the professional features in QR Factory 3, we've also included the following abilities (click on the tabs to the right to view them) to help increase productivity.
QR codes are continuously scanned to ensure that they are readable by a real user. The result of the verification is shown below the code.
As well, it also will monitor the reliability level when a middle icon/logo is used and adjust it accordingly.

The entire app state can be saved into a snapshot, called a QRD file. This can be opened later to make changes to a QR code design without having to start over.
It's also fully transferable between the macOS and iPadOS versions.
QR Factory 3 is available both macOS and iPadOS.
We specifically built it using native technologies (Swift & SwiftUI in particular) with custom interfaces for each platform. We believe apps should be easy to use and follow the interface patterns for each platform.
The best part is, one subscription provides access to both platforms. Using QRD files, it's even possible to work on one and move to the other without any interruptions.
We've been working on QR Factory for almost 10 years, and now with this major update, we're pleased to announce that we've added many customer requested features and improvements.
Professionals love using QR Factory with the ease of use yet powerful options, especially the multiple codes feature and the delightful customization choices.
