What Is a WiFi QR Code?
A WiFi QR code is a square pattern that encodes a network's login details — name, password, and security type — in a format phone cameras already know how to read. Instead of typing a long, often case-sensitive password on a small keyboard, a guest scans the code and their phone offers to join the network directly.
Fill in your network name and password below and the code updates as you type. It's built entirely in your browser using the standard WIFI: payload format, so it works the same whether it's scanned by an iPhone, an Android phone, or a dedicated QR reader app — nothing is uploaded or stored anywhere.
What Gets Encoded
Network Name (SSID)
The exact name of the WiFi network, as it appears in a phone's network list.
Password & Encryption
The password and security type (WPA/WPA2, WEP, or none) needed to authenticate.
Hidden Network Flag
An optional marker telling the scanner to connect even though the SSID isn't broadcast.
Where a WiFi QR Code Helps
At Home
Stick a printed code by the router or front door so guests join without asking for the password.
Cafes & Restaurants
A table tent or receipt code gets customers online in one scan, no staff interruption needed.
Offices
Hand a visitor a guest-network code instead of reading a password aloud across a meeting room.
Events & Airbnbs
Conferences, weddings, and short-term rentals all benefit from a one-scan connection for a crowd that changes constantly.
A Note on Security
The password is embedded directly in the QR code image — anyone who scans it can join the network, the same as if they read the password off a sticky note. Treat a printed WiFi QR code the same way you'd treat the password itself: fine to post inside a home or a private office, but not somewhere a stranger could photograph it if that's a concern.
For businesses handing codes to the public, a separate guest network keeps visitor devices off the same network as internal equipment and staff devices.
If you ever change the WiFi password, the old QR code stops working — generate and reprint a new one with the updated credentials.

FAQ
Is this WiFi QR code generator free?
Yes, it is completely free to use with no limits, signup, or account required.
Is my network name or password uploaded anywhere?
No. The QR code is built entirely in your browser. Your SSID and password are never sent to a server or stored.
How does scanning it actually connect to WiFi?
The QR code encodes a WIFI: payload — a format iOS and Android camera apps recognize automatically. Scanning it prompts "Join Network" with the SSID, security type, and password already filled in.
Which encryption type should I choose?
Match whatever your router is actually using — almost always WPA/WPA2 today. Pick WEP only for very old routers, or "None" for an open network with no password.
Is it safe to put my WiFi password in a QR code?
Anyone who scans the code gets your password, the same as if you read it out loud. It's fine for a home entryway or a private office, but don't post a QR code with your real network password somewhere public — use a dedicated guest network instead.
Can I make a code for a hidden network?
Yes — check "Hidden network" and the payload includes a flag telling the scanner to connect even though the SSID isn't being broadcast.
Will this work if my phone camera doesn't auto-detect WiFi QR codes?
Most modern camera apps do, but older phones may just show the raw text. Any QR scanner app that supports the WIFI: format will still parse it correctly.
