QR Code Scanner
A Wi-Fi QR code encodes your network name, password and security type into one scannable square. Guests point their phone camera at it and tap "Join Network" — no typing, no spelling out "was that a zero or an O?". You can create one free in the QR Code Scanner app in under a minute.
"What's the Wi-Fi password?" is the most-asked question in every home, café, clinic and Airbnb. A Wi-Fi QR code answers it permanently: print it once, stick it on the fridge or menu stand, and every guest connects themselves — on iPhone and Android alike.
Create a Wi-Fi QR code in 4 steps
- Open the create tab in the QR Code Scanner ＊ Barcode Reader app and choose Wi-Fi.
- Enter your network name (SSID) exactly as it appears in Wi-Fi settings — capitalization matters.
- Enter the password and security type. Most modern routers use WPA2 or WPA3; check the router label if unsure.
- Save, style and print. Optionally add your colors or logo, then save the image, AirPrint it, or share it to a family group chat.
Because the app generates the code on your device and offline, your Wi-Fi credentials are never uploaded to a website — a real privacy advantage over browser-based generators.
How guests use it
- They open their phone camera (or any QR scanner).
- They point it at your code.
- They tap the Join Network prompt. Connected — password never seen, never typed.
Where Wi-Fi QR codes shine
- Home: a small framed code by the door ends the password question forever.
- Airbnb & rentals: put it in the welcome book — fewer messages, better reviews.
- Cafés & restaurants: add it to menus and table tents so customers connect without staff help.
- Offices: a guest-network code at reception beats IT tickets for visitor access.
- Events: print it on signage so attendees get online instantly.
Never spell out your Wi-Fi password again
Create your Wi-Fi QR code free, offline and in under a minute — then print it once and forget it.
Frequently asked questions
Is it safe to share Wi-Fi with a QR code?
Creating the code in an offline app is safer than a website generator — your credentials never leave your phone. Anyone who can physically scan the code can join, so display it only where you'd happily hand out the password, ideally for a guest network.
Do Wi-Fi QR codes work on both iPhone and Android?
Yes. iOS 11+ and Android 10+ recognize Wi-Fi QR codes natively with the camera and prompt to join the network automatically.
What happens if I change my Wi-Fi password?
The old code stops working — the password is encoded in the pattern. Generate a fresh code with the new password and replace printed copies.
