Quick Fill
How it works
Enter your WiFi network name (SSID) - this is required. Add the password if your network is secured. Select the security type: WPA/WPA2 for most modern networks, WEP for older systems, or Open Network for public WiFi.
If your network is hidden (not broadcasting its name), check the hidden network option. This tells devices to actively search for your network rather than waiting for it to appear.
What happens when scanned:
- Device reads the WiFi credentials from the QR code
- iOS shows a "Join Network" notification
- Android prompts to connect to the network
- User confirms and connects automatically
The QR code generates as you type. Preview shows your network details. Download and print for guest areas, offices, or rental properties.
When You'd Actually Use This
Guest WiFi at home
Frame the QR code in your entryway. Guests scan to connect instantly. No more spelling out complicated passwords. Looks professional too.
Coffee shop customer WiFi
Display on tables or at the counter. Customers connect while waiting for orders. Reduces staff time spent sharing passwords repeatedly.
Office visitor access
Reception area display for visitors. They connect immediately upon arrival. Keeps your main network secure while providing guest access.
Vacation rental amenities
Include in the welcome book or frame on the wall. Guests connect without calling you for the password. Better reviews, fewer messages.
Event venue connectivity
Conference centers and wedding venues provide WiFi access. Attendees scan to connect. Include on event programs or signage.
Co-working space member access
New members scan to connect on day one. Multiple locations can have unique codes. Simplifies onboarding for hot-desking members.
What to Know Before Using
iOS requires iOS 11 or later.WiFi QR code support was added in iOS 11. Older iPhones won't recognize the code. Most devices are updated, but worth noting.
Password is visible in the code.Anyone who scans can see your password. Use a guest network with limited access. Don't put this on public-facing materials for your main network.
Hidden networks are harder to join.Some devices struggle with hidden network QR codes. Consider broadcasting your SSID if connection issues arise.
Enterprise networks need different setup.WPA2-Enterprise with username/password isn't supported by standard WiFi QR codes. Use for simple PSK networks only.
Security tip: Create a separate guest network for QR codes. Limit bandwidth and block access to your local devices. Change the password periodically.
Common Questions
Do I need to include the password?
For secured networks, yes. Open networks (no password) work without it. Select "Open Network" as the security type for password-free WiFi.
Will this work on Android and iPhone?
Yes, both platforms support WiFi QR codes. Android added support earlier, iOS joined in iOS 11. Most modern devices work perfectly.
What if someone shares the QR code?
Anyone with the image can connect. Use a guest network with rate limiting. Change passwords periodically if concerned about unauthorized access.
Can I update the password later?
No, the password is encoded in the QR pattern. Changing it requires generating and redistributing new QR codes everywhere.
Why isn't my phone connecting?
Check that WiFi is enabled. Ensure you're scanning from the camera app. Some phones require a QR scanner app. Verify the network is in range.
Can I add a logo to the QR code?
This tool generates standard codes. For branded QR codes with logos, use a design tool afterward. Keep the center clear for reliable scanning.
Should I laminate the printed code?
Yes, especially in high-traffic areas. Lamination protects from wear and moisture. Use matte finish to reduce glare that interferes with scanning.
