Enter your WiFi name and password to instantly generate a scan-to-connect QR code. Eliminate the hassle of typing long passwords and share your network easily.
Generate QR Code
Overview
Understand what the tool solves, how it works, and the boundaries of its data.
Enter a Wi-Fi network name (SSID), choose its security option, and add a password when the network requires one. A QR preview appears when an SSID is present, and you can download it as a PNG. The hidden-network setting is included in the encoded network information.
This is a convenience for sharing access details. A Wi-Fi QR code does not encrypt the password: the network name and password are encoded as readable information that compatible scanning software can interpret. Anyone who can scan or photograph a posted code may be able to obtain those credentials.
Enter the SSID exactly as it appears in the network settings, including capitalization and spaces. Then select WPA, WEP, or No Password. The WPA choice is labeled for WPA, WPA2, and WPA3 networks; WEP is provided for older networks; choose No Password only for an open network. A password field is shown for the password-protected options and omitted when No Password is selected.
Use the hidden-network checkbox when the network is configured as hidden. It adds that setting to the QR data, but it does not make the credentials secret or guarantee that every device will join successfully.
Guide
Follow the workflow and verify inputs and outputs with practical examples.
Type the exact network name. The code preview becomes available after the name is present.
Select the matching security option. For a protected network, enter its current password; for an open network, select No Password.
Enable it only when the router or access point is configured to hide its network name.
Use a device you trust to scan the preview and confirm it refers to the intended network. Then download the PNG for a private handout or sign.
Use cases
See how the tool fits into real work and everyday tasks.
Prepare a small printed code for visitors instead of reading out a long password. Keep it in a place where only intended guests can access it.
Share a guest-network code with visitors when your network policy allows it. Use the credentials for the guest network rather than exposing a private or administrative network.
Add the downloaded image to an event sign so attendees can scan for network details. Remove or replace the sign when the password changes or access should end.
Q&A
Find concise answers to common questions and confusing cases.
No. The network details are encoded in the image and may be readable by compatible scanning software. Share the code only where the people who can see it are allowed to access the network.
Not necessarily. The tool creates an image from the values you enter; scanning behavior depends on a device and its software. Confirm the SSID, security choice, and password, and enter them manually if scanning does not work.
Generate a replacement code with the current password and remove old copies. A previously downloaded image continues to contain the credentials that were entered when it was made.
Notes
Review scope, result limitations, and important precautions before use.
The QR image carries the values supplied in the form. It does not check that the network exists, test the password, change router settings, or ensure automatic connection on a particular phone. Scanning behavior depends on the device and its software. If a scan does not work, verify that the SSID, password, and security choice match the router, then try entering the network details manually.
Changing a password after generating the image makes the old code stale. Create and distribute a replacement whenever the credentials change.
Treat the downloaded image like a written password. Do not put it on a public webpage or an unrestricted location if the network is private. A person who can capture the image may be able to read the embedded details even if they cannot see the original input form.
For a public guest network, consider whether its password grants access only to the intended guest service. This generator creates a QR image from the values you enter; the image itself does not provide encryption, access control, or network security.
