WiFi QR Code Generator
Enter your network name and password, choose the security type, and generate a QR code. Scanning it connects a phone to WiFi instantly — no typing required.
Enter your WiFi details
Never sent anywhere — the QR code is generated entirely in your browser.
Customize appearance
Higher levels keep the code scannable even if part of it is covered or damaged.
Adding a logo automatically raises error correction to High for reliable scanning.
How it works
- Enter your WiFi network name (SSID) exactly as it appears in your WiFi settings.
- Choose the security type — WPA/WPA2/WPA3-compatible, WEP, or none for an open network — and add the password if required.
- Download the QR code as PNG or SVG, or print it directly to place near your router or front desk.
Main features
- Supports WPA/WPA2/WPA3-compatible networks, WEP, and open networks

- Adjustable size, colors, error correction level, and an optional logo
- PNG and SVG download, plus one-click printing
Use cases
- Guests at home — skip reading out a long password.

- Airbnb and short-term rentals — leave a printed card for guests.
- Offices — a guest network card at reception.
- Events and conferences — display WiFi access on a screen or handout.
Supported devices
Modern iPhones (iOS 11+) and Android phones (Android 10+) can scan a WiFi QR code directly from the built-in camera app and connect without installing anything. Older devices may need a separate QR scanner app that supports WiFi network codes.
WiFi QR code guide
WiFi QR code for iPhone
On iPhone, open the Camera app and point it at the QR code. A notification appears offering to join the network — tap it to connect. No extra app is required. See our full iPhone WiFi QR code guide.
WiFi QR code for Android
Most Android phones can scan WiFi QR codes with the default Camera or Google Lens app. Some Android versions also let you generate a WiFi QR code directly from WiFi settings for a network you're already connected to. Read the Android WiFi QR code guide for details.
WiFi QR code for PC
Windows and macOS don't scan QR codes natively, but you can still generate and print a WiFi QR code from a desktop browser using this tool — it's just as useful for guests connecting with their phones.
With password vs. without a password
Choose WPA/WPA2/WPA3-compatible or WEP and enter your password for a secured network. For an open network with no password, choose "None" — the QR code will skip the password field entirely.
WiFi QR code security and privacy
A WiFi QR code encodes your password in a scannable but still readable format — anyone who scans it can see the text. Treat a printed WiFi QR code the way you'd treat a written-down password: don't post it somewhere the public can access it unless you're intentionally sharing that network. See our full QR code security guide.
Printing your WiFi QR code
For a table card or wall sign, print the QR code at least 2.5 cm (1 in) per side for close-range scanning, larger for a poster viewed from a distance. See how to print a QR code correctly.
Troubleshooting
| Issue | Likely cause |
|---|---|
| Phone shows "incorrect password" after scanning | Double-check the SSID and password match your router exactly, including capitalization. |
| QR code won't scan | Increase the print size, boost contrast, or raise the error correction level. |
| Network doesn't appear when scanning | Confirm the "hidden network" checkbox matches your router's actual setting. |
Frequently asked questions
What is a WiFi QR code?
A WiFi QR code is a QR code that stores your network name, password, and security type. Scanning it with a phone camera joins the network automatically, without typing anything.
How do I create a WiFi QR code?
Enter your network name (SSID), choose the security type, add the password if needed, then generate the QR code above. Download it as PNG or SVG, or print it directly.
Can I create a WiFi QR code on iPhone?
Yes. Use this tool in Safari or any browser on iPhone — no app required. iOS's Camera app can scan the resulting QR code to join the network directly.
Can I make a WiFi QR code without a password?
Yes. Choose "None" as the security type for an open network, and the password field is skipped entirely.
Does the WiFi QR code expire?
No. It's a static QR code — it encodes your network details directly, so it keeps working until you change your WiFi password or network name.
Is it safe to share a WiFi QR code?
The QR code contains your network password in plain form, similar to writing it on a card. Only share or display it somewhere your intended guests can access, and treat a printed code the way you'd treat a written password.
