Wi-Fi QR code generator
Enter your network name and password, then download the code. Guests scan it with their phone camera and tap to join. The code is made in your browser, so the password is never sent to us.
Make a Wi-Fi QR code
Before you print
- Anyone who can see the code can join, so put it where you would be happy to share the password. Many people use a guest network for this.
- If you change your Wi-Fi password, you need a new code.
- Most routers use WPA, WPA2 or WPA3. Choose "None" only for open networks with no password.
- Tick "Hidden network" only if your network does not appear in your phone's Wi-Fi list.
- Check the network name and password carefully: capital letters, spaces and symbols all count. Scan the code with your own phone before printing it.
Where people put them
A guest room, a holiday-rental welcome card, a café counter, a meeting room or a front desk. As a rule of thumb, make the code about a tenth as wide as the distance people scan from: 3 cm (1.2 inches) for a card held in the hand, bigger for a sign on the wall.
Questions
Is it safe to put my Wi-Fi password in a QR code?
Anyone who scans the code can read the password, just as if it were written on a card. A separate guest network keeps your main network private.
Do you store my password?
No. The code is made in your browser and the password is never sent to us.
What if I change my Wi-Fi password?
Make a new code. The old one still contains the old password, so it will stop connecting.
Does it work on iPhone and Android?
Yes. Recent iPhones and Android phones can join straight from the camera app.
Can I count how many people scanned it?
No. A Wi-Fi code holds the network details themselves, so it cannot go through a short link that counts opens.
