📖 How it works & FAQ

Network name (SSID)

Password

Encryption

Hidden network

Share your Wi-Fi without spelling out the password

Reading a 16-character password aloud — "capital B, lowercase r, the number zero, not the letter" — is nobody's favorite way to welcome a guest. A Wi-Fi QR code fixes that. Modern phones (iOS 11+ and Android 10+, plus most earlier Androids via the camera or QR app) recognize a standard Wi-Fi payload and offer to join the network with one tap. This generator builds that payload in the format WIFI:T:WPA;S:NetworkName;P:Password;H:false;;, renders it as a crisp QR code, and lets you download it as a PNG you can print, frame, or drop into a guest-room welcome card.

Everything happens locally in your browser. Your network name and password are never uploaded, logged, or stored anywhere — close the tab and they are gone. Special characters like semicolons, commas, colons, and backslashes are automatically escaped so the code scans correctly even with unusual passwords.

How to use it

Enter your network name (SSID) exactly as it appears in your router settings — capitalization matters.
Type the Wi-Fi password. For an open network, choose "None" and the password field is skipped.
Pick the encryption type. Almost every modern router uses WPA/WPA2/WPA3; WEP is only for very old hardware.
If your router does not broadcast its name, switch "Hidden network" to Yes.
The QR code updates live as you type. Test it with your own phone, then click Download PNG to save a print-ready image.

FAQ

Is it safe to type my Wi-Fi password here?: Yes. The code is generated entirely in your browser with JavaScript — nothing is sent to a server. You can even load the page, disconnect from the internet, and it still works.
Which encryption option should I pick?: WPA covers WPA, WPA2, and WPA3, which is what virtually all routers made since 2006 use. Only pick WEP if your router explicitly says so, and "None" for open networks with no password.
Anyone who scans the code can see my password — is that a problem?: The QR code contains the password in readable form, so treat the printout like the password itself. Post it inside your home or business, not in a public window.
Do I need to regenerate the code if I change my password?: Yes. The code stores a snapshot of your credentials, so any change to the SSID or password means printing a fresh one.
