WiFi QR code generator

Turn your network name and password into one QR code guests scan to join — generated in your browser, your password never leaves your device.

Security

Most networks made in the last decade use WPA2 or WPA3.

Type your network name to see the code.

Static code — no account, no scan limit, never expires.
The QR code updates as you type.

Runs in your browser. Nothing is uploaded.

How it works

  1. 01

    Fill in your network

    Type your network name and password, pick the security type your router uses, and tick "hidden network" only if your router hides its name.

  2. 02

    The code updates as you type

    Print it, put it on the fridge, or show it on your screen. The download is created on your device.

  3. 03

    Guests scan and join

    A guest opens their camera, points it at the code, and taps the prompt to join. On most phones no app is needed.

One code, every guest

With a WiFi QR code you stop spelling out your password letter by letter — "is that a zero or an O, capital or not" — every time someone visits. The code joins them in one scan, and it works for the next guest, and the one after that, because it never expires.

Static, free, and it stays that way

The code this page makes is a static QR code: your network settings are encoded directly into the pattern, not parked behind a redirect service. That means three things hold true — it costs nothing, it needs no account, and it cannot expire, because there is no server involved that could one day switch it off. Scan it in ten years and it will still join your network, if your password hasn’t changed.

A WiFi QR code is your password in a square

Be deliberate about where you put it. Joining information is encoded in the pattern itself, so anyone who can scan the code can join your network — that is its job, and also its catch. Frame it for guests, don’t stencil it on the door. And if you ever change your password, the old code quietly stops working; come back and make a new one — it takes ten seconds and costs nothing.

Printing it for the wall?

A WiFi code lives on paper, and paper has rules: a printed QR code should be at least 2 × 2 cm, and bigger if people will scan from across the room.

Frequently asked questions

Do WiFi QR codes expire?

No. The network settings are encoded into the code itself — there is no link and no redirect service involved, so nothing can expire. The code stops working only when the password it holds no longer matches your router.

Does this work with WPA3?

Yes. WPA, WPA2, and WPA3 networks all use the same marker in the WiFi QR format, and phones that support WPA3 will connect with it. For an old WEP network, pick WEP; for an open network with no password, pick None.

What if my network name is hidden?

Tick "hidden network" before downloading. The code then carries the hidden flag, and phones will find and join your network even though it doesn’t broadcast its name.

Can someone get my WiFi password from the QR code?

Yes — that’s how the code works. The password is encoded in the pattern, so the code and the password are the same secret. Share the code exactly as generously as you’d share the password, no more.

I changed my WiFi password. Do I need a new QR code?

Yes. A static code can’t be edited after the fact — its content is fixed into the pattern. Generate a new one with the new password and replace the old printout; the stale code simply won’t connect anyone.
