Wi-Fi QR Code Generator

Make a Wi-Fi QR code so guests connect with one scan, no password typing.

Copy it exactly from your router or phone's Wi-Fi settings.

Anyone who can read this QR code, including from a photo, can decode the Wi-Fi password. It is encoded, not encrypted. Share it only with people you trust.

Tick if your network doesn't broadcast its name.

Customize design

Presets

Higher levels survive more damage and bigger logos, at the cost of a denser code.

Blank border around the code in modules. 4 is the specification recommendation.

Center logo (optional)

Your QR code

Made in your browser
Your QR code appears here as you type

Waiting for valid content

Free, no watermark, never expires. SVG scales to any size for print.

Turn your Wi-Fi network name and password into a QR code, and guests can join with a single scan. No more tapping out 16-character passwords or reading them out letter by letter.

Both iPhone and Android phones support Wi-Fi QR codes natively: point the camera at the code, tap the notification, and the device connects. No app is needed on modern phones.

The generator encodes your network details directly in the QR code in your browser, without uploading them for generation. Sharing the code shares the encoded Wi-Fi password.

Sharing Wi-Fi safely

A Wi-Fi QR code contains your password, encoded rather than encrypted. Anyone who can read the code, including from a photo or screenshot, can decode the password and use or share it. Treat the code like the password itself: share it only with people you trust, and consider a separate guest network for visitors.

If you change your Wi-Fi password later, simply generate a new code here and replace the old print. The old code will keep trying to connect with the old password and fail, so swap it out wherever it's displayed.

Frequently asked questions

Does a Wi-Fi QR code reveal my password?
Yes. Anyone who can read the QR code, including from a photo or screenshot, can decode its Wi-Fi password. It is encoded, not encrypted. Some phones connect without displaying the password, but that does not keep it secret. Treat the code like the password itself and share it only with people you trust.
Does it work on iPhone and Android?
Yes. Modern versions of both iOS and Android recognize Wi-Fi QR codes directly in the camera app. On older phones, the built-in QR scanner or a free scanner app handles it.
Which security type should I pick?
Choose WPA/WPA2 for almost all home and office networks. It also works for WPA3 networks on current phones. WEP is only for very old equipment. If your network is open (no password), choose None.
My network name or password has special characters. Will it break?
No. Special characters like ; : , " and \ are properly escaped, which is a common bug in other generators. Enter your details exactly as they appear in your router settings.
Can I share a hidden network?
Yes, tick “Hidden network”. The QR code then tells the phone to search for the hidden SSID instead of waiting for it to broadcast.
What happens when I change my Wi-Fi password?
The old code stops working because it contains the old password. Generate a fresh code with the new password and replace the printed one.
