## Description

Short URL QR Code lets you shorten the current page URL or any URL you enter, then instantly generate a QR code for the shortened link.
Features:
- Use <a href="https://prod.outgoing.prod.webservices.mozgcp.net/v1/1f53c4101614662e4ab0e9e36c0f5cc2834953e57ba87e8af4294f6426155af2/http%3A//is.gd" rel="nofollow">is.gd</a> without an API key.
- Use Bitly or <a href="https://prod.outgoing.prod.webservices.mozgcp.net/v1/486b76545179dd359172a1323d1888bf9b81724840e907098b8c394101985984/http%3A//reurl.cc" rel="nofollow">reurl.cc</a> with your own API token.
- Automatically fill in the current page URL.
- Copy the shortened URL with one click.
- Generate QR codes entirely inside the extension.
- No analytics, advertising, or tracking.

When you click “Create short URL,” the entered URL is sent only to the shortening service you selected. If you use Bitly or <a href="https://prod.outgoing.prod.webservices.mozgcp.net/v1/486b76545179dd359172a1323d1888bf9b81724840e907098b8c394101985984/http%3A//reurl.cc" rel="nofollow">reurl.cc</a>, your API  token is stored locally in Firefox and sent only to that selected provider for authentication. QR code generation is performed locally and does not contact an external QR code service.
