Wi-Fi QR code generator

Let guests join your Wi-Fi by pointing their camera at a code instead of typing a long password. Both iPhone and Android cameras recognise Wi-Fi QR codes and offer to connect.

Share your Wi-Fi in three steps

  1. Enter the network name (SSID) exactly as it appears, including capitals.
  2. Choose the security type and enter the password, or pick an open network.
  3. Download the code and print it for your home, office, café or rental.

What is inside a Wi-Fi QR code

The code holds one short line of text in the format phones expect for Wi-Fi: WIFI:T:WPA;S:network name;P:password;;. Backslashes, semicolons, commas, colons and double quotes in the network name or password are escaped with a backslash, so a password such as pa;ss:word still joins correctly instead of being cut off halfway.

Hidden and open networks

If your network does not broadcast its name, tick Hidden network and the code adds H:true, so the phone knows to look for it. For an open network, choose None as the security type and the password field disappears; the code then carries only the network name and tells the phone that no password is needed.

Wi-Fi QR code questions

Which phones can join a network by scanning?

Current iPhones and most Android phones read Wi-Fi QR codes straight from the camera app and offer to join the network. Some older Android phones need Google Lens or a separate scanner app. If a phone only shows the text, the guest can still read the network name and password from it.

Can guests see the Wi-Fi password?

Yes. Anyone who scans the code can find the password, because Wi-Fi codes store it as plain text, whichever generator made them. For visitors, a separate guest network that you can change without touching your own devices is the safer choice.
