How To Use The Qr Codes In Animal Crossing

If you aren't surrounded by people in your life that are playing Animal Crossing: New Horizons, then you need a new social circle. Just, a whole new one entirely, those fools are just not working out for you. Ditch the clowns, and get yourself someone who respects animals.

Animal Crossing: New Horizons is the hot new thing right now, and everyone is adoring the ability to create their own designs and totally customise their entire town. Lovely, right? One of the best things about it is that those of you with little talent can download shared designs online, and even scan QR codes from previous games, Animal Crossing: New Leaf and Happy Home Designer.

You can't actually create QR codes in New Horizons, but we have a way to get around that. Using an online tool, this guide will teach you how to create your own custom QR codes to share with Animal Crossing: New Horizons players, and not only that, we'll show you how to convert normal images into Animal Crossing QR codes - mind, the low-resolution and colour palette of Animal Crossing designs may render your ideal images into something less-than intelligible.

With that limitation in mind, read on for everything you need to know about creating and sharing your own QR codes for Animal Crossing: New Horizons players - and if for some reason you're still on New Leaf or Happy Home Designer, yes, these will work for you too!

If you need to know how to scan QR codes into Animal Crossing: New Horizons, be sure to read our full instructions on how to do so right here!

Online creation

This guide will entirely use the AC Patterns online editor, which you can find right here. This pattern editor works just like the one you will recognise from Animal Crossing: New Horizons, and you can create designs in basically the same way, with a few new features. Luckily it works on both mobile and desktop, though desktop users might have a better overall experience.

To create a design using this tool, the first thing you'll want to do is open the colour editor in the top right, and then customise your colour palette at the top. You can only use a limited number of colours, so be mindful of that.

Once that is done, it's a simple case of filling in the grid with colours to create your design. You can edit the metadata of the design, like the title, author name, and home island, and the pattern type (the 'Standee' type is not compatible with New Horizons) using the 'change' button on the left - but beware, using naughty words in these fields may make your design incompatible with New Horizons.

Once you're happy with your design, you can press the 'Generate QR Code' button in the bottom right, which will give you a QR code on an image that you can then download and share.

Image conversion

Now here's where the fun begins. You can use the 'Convert' button on the right side of the screen to upload an image, which will then be converted into an Animal Crossing-friendly design. Now, this means images will lose a lot of fidelity, so you should be cautious.

The editor is also not perfect, meaning you should make manual adjustments to the exact design you want.

But when the image is smoothed-over using the filter that New Horizons puts on design, the end result can be quite striking. Or it can blur into a mess. One of the two.

It took me several tries before I found an image of Toon Link which didn't get smeared into a mess, but keep in mind that in-game you'll often be looking at these pictures at a much lower resolution, which makes them a bit more passable.

Interior of your dreams

Of course, you can place these designs absolutely anywhere. Inside your house, on your floor, as wallpaper, as paintings, as clothing, as flooring outside, anywhere. You can make your island look as if it's being run by an absolute psychopath, and that's okay.

But personally? I'm in it for the memes. To be honest, most of the designs I've imported into the game are a bit too rude to be posted here. But I've got one to share with you, just to get your imagination sparking.

I said the resolution was too low to show anything with detail, but you can absolutely crop images into several pieces, making each piece a design, and then display those in your town, on the floor as people enter, on your walls, wherever. Just make an impact, and have fun!

Animal Crossing: New Horizons. It's a good game, and we can't get enough of it. In fact, I myself once again spent multiple hours this morning playing Animal Crossing before breakfast, and once again, I am hungry, yet have paid off a considerable amount of debt. Swings and roundabouts.

One lovely feature you can use in Animal Crossing: New Horizons is the ability to scan QR codes of designs created in New Leaf or Happy Home Designer, and then import them into your main game. You can only do one at a time, sadly, and not all designs look clean with New Horizons' new image smoothing put onto pixelated designs, but this is a feature I love since I can steal designs from more talented people online.

If you want to share designs made in New Horizons however, it's a bit more complicated, and you will need a Nintendo Online Subscription in order to share them. Frustrating, I know, but luckily the QR codes are free at least.

To find out how to scan QR codes and share your new designs, just take a look at our guide below… But if you want to create your own QR codes, or even convert images into ACNH designs, check out our guide.

Scanning QR codes from New Leaf

In order to scan QR codes from New Leaf or Happy Home Designer, you will need to use the Nintendo Switch Online app on an Android or iOS device - you know, that app for voice chat and Splatoon 2 items - and you will need to connect it to your New Horizons save file. Follow these instructions to link up NookLink…

Download the Nintendo Switch Online app, and ensure you are logged in with the same account you use for your New Horizons save file.
On Animal Crossing: New Horizons, press - on the main menu screen, this will take you to the game's settings. Here you can activate NookLink.
Restart the app on your mobile device, and NookLink should now be active.

Now NookLink is active, and you can start scanning QR codes. Unfortunately, you can only scan one at a time into the game, and the face cut-out boards that were available in New Leaf are now no longer compatible with the game, so don't try those.

In the Nintendo Switch Online App, tap on Animal Crossing: New Horizons and then Designs.
Press the Scan a QR Code button.
Allow any permissions requested, and then simply point your camera at a QR code. You can easily find one on Google if you wish to test.
Once you have a QR code scanned and saved, it's time to open up New Horizons.
Go to your designs app, and then press +. This should download any saved designs.
Pick a slot to save your new design in, and it should be complete!

Sharing designs in New Horizons

Finally, you can share designs made in New Horizons, but not with QR codes anymore, meaning that previous advice is meaningless when it comes to this. First you will need to construct the Able Sister's Tailor shop, and once that is done, along with a Nintendo Switch Online Subscription, you will be able to share your designs…

Go to the Able Sister's shop, and at the back of the room should be an online kiosk.
When you first use this kiosk, you will be assigned a creator code. Share this code and people will be able to find all of your designs at any point.
You will be able to upload your designs now. It's as simple as navigating the menus, and each designs will also be assigned a code that you can share online.
And finally, of course, you can type in design or creator codes if you want to seek out certain designs that people have created. That's all you need to know!

Unfortunately, you will need the online subscription to use this kiosk, and frankly, it's not as easy as scanning a QR code, but we're glad the creator codes allow you to showcase all of your best designs.
