WiFi QR Code Generator
Create a QR code that connects any phone to your WiFi network. Your password is encoded in your browser and never uploaded.
Typed here and encoded locally. It is never uploaded.
Rounded keeps adjacent modules joined; dots separates them.
Applies to the three locator squares. Their proportions stay exact.
Blank margin around the code. The spec requires 4 — lower it and scanners start to struggle.
Applies to PNG and WebP downloads.

Placed in the centre. Your image stays on this device.
Higher levels survive damage and dirt but make the code denser.

How to create a wifi
- Type your network name exactly as it appears when you search for WiFi — it is case sensitive.
- Choose your security type. WPA covers WPA, WPA2 and WPA3; pick "Open" only if the network has no password.
- Enter the password. It stays in your browser: nothing is sent anywhere.
- Download the code and print it. Guests point their camera at it and get a prompt to join.
What is a wifi?
A WiFi QR code holds your network name, security type and password in a short text format that iOS and Android both recognise. When a phone scans it, the operating system offers to join the network instead of opening a link — no typing a long password off a chalkboard.
This is the single most useful QR code for cafés, restaurants, hotels, clinics and holiday rentals. It removes the most common friction point a guest hits in the first minute, and it works without an app on either side.
Because the credentials live inside the pattern, anyone who can photograph the code can join the network. That is the point, but it means a printed code belongs where you would happily tell someone the password aloud — not on a window facing the street.
Does this QR code expire?
No. This code is static: the data is written directly into the pattern, not stored on our servers. There is no link back to us that could break, no subscription that could lapse, and nothing we could switch off. Print it once and it keeps working — including after this website is gone.
Frequently asked questions
- Is it safe to put my WiFi password in a QR code?
- The password is readable by anyone who scans the code, exactly like writing it on a card. It is not encrypted. Treat the printed code like the written password: fine on a table inside, not on a shop window. Many venues use a separate guest network for this reason. On our side, nothing is uploaded — the code is built in your browser, so we never see the password at all.
- Why does my WiFi QR code not work?
- The three usual causes are a mistyped network name, the wrong security type, or a special character in the password that the generator failed to escape. Network names are case sensitive and must match exactly. If your password contains a semicolon, colon, comma, backslash or quote mark, it has to be escaped in the encoded text — we handle that automatically, but many generators do not.
- Does this work on both iPhone and Android?
- Yes. Both handle WiFi QR codes natively through the built-in camera. Android has supported it since version 10 and iOS since iOS 11. Older devices may need a QR scanner app.
- What is a hidden network?
- A hidden network does not broadcast its name, so it will not show up in a normal WiFi list. Tick the hidden box only if that describes your network — setting it for a normal network can stop some phones from connecting.
- Can I use WPA3?
- Yes — choose WPA. The QR format has no way to distinguish WPA, WPA2 and WPA3, and devices negotiate the actual protocol themselves. Any generator offering separate WPA2 and WPA3 options is showing you a choice that does not exist in the data.
