Does anyone know of a qr code generator that allows you to choose which mask to use?

I have an F-Droid app called IWS QR that let you choose that, it's also let ypu choose the error correction and other options too.

Not that I know of. I think they automatically use the mask that works "best" while these codes are generated. I have tried some (free) QR code generators and there is no hint that the mask can be choosed.

If you have Affinity Designer 2, you are able to generate QR codes within the software. No need to sign up for a free one. But when creating a QR code with Affinity, there is no option to choose the mask.
