How to Use the WiFi QR Code Generator

Create a scannable QR code that lets anyone connect to your WiFi network instantly — no typing long passwords. Enter your network details, customize the look, and download the code as PNG or SVG.

Step-by-Step

  1. Enter your SSID — the name of your WiFi network, exactly as it appears on your router.
  2. Enter the password — leave blank only if the network is open (no encryption).
  3. Select encryption type — most home and office networks use WPA/WPA2. Older networks may use WEP. Choose "None" for open networks.
  4. Check "Hidden network" if your router doesn't broadcast the SSID.
  5. Customize size and colors — pick a size that fits your use case and adjust colors to match your branding.
  6. Download — save as PNG for printing or SVG for scalable graphics.

Where to Use WiFi QR Codes

  • Hotels & Airbnbs — print a card or sticker so guests connect without asking for the password.
  • Cafes & Restaurants — display on table tents or menus for quick customer access.
  • Offices — place near conference rooms so visitors can join the guest network.
  • Home — stick on the fridge or near the router for friends and family.

How It Works

The QR code encodes your WiFi credentials in the standard WIFI: format recognized by both iOS and Android. When someone scans the code with their phone camera, it prompts them to join the network automatically — no manual typing required.

Everything runs in your browser. Your network name and password never leave your device.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I scan a WiFi QR code on my phone?

On iPhone (iOS 11+), open the Camera app and point it at the QR code — a notification will appear to join the network. On Android (9+), open the Camera or Google Lens and scan the code. Tap the notification to connect automatically.

Is my WiFi password safe when using this tool?

Yes. The QR code is generated entirely in your browser using JavaScript. Your SSID and password are never sent to any server. You can verify this by disconnecting from the internet before generating the code — it still works.

What encryption type should I choose?

Most modern routers use WPA2 or WPA3 — select "WPA/WPA2" for these. Only choose "WEP" if you have a legacy router that specifically uses WEP encryption. Select "None" for open networks with no password.

What does the "Hidden network" option do?

If your router is configured to not broadcast its SSID (the network name doesn't appear in WiFi scan lists), check this box. The QR code will include a flag telling the phone the network is hidden, so it knows to connect even though the SSID isn't visible.

What size should I choose for printing?

For a small label or business card, 256px is sufficient. For a poster or wall sign, use 512px or 1024px. The QR code should be printed at least 2 cm x 2 cm to ensure reliable scanning. For best print quality, download the SVG format which scales to any size without losing sharpness.
