What kind of code?

Your network name and password are encoded right here in your browser. They’re never sent to QRever — a Wi-Fi code doesn’t need a server.

How to

How to make a Wi-Fi QR code

  1. 1

    Enter the network name

    Type the network name (SSID) exactly as your phone shows it — it’s case-sensitive, and a trailing space counts.

  2. 2

    Add the password and security type

    Choose “WPA / WPA2” for almost every router, including WPA3 routers in mixed mode; WEP only for very old equipment; “Open network” if there’s no password. Tick “Hidden network” if the network doesn’t broadcast its name.

  3. 3

    Test on two phones

    Scan it with an iPhone and an Android phone before you print. If both offer to join, it’s right.

  4. 4

    Download and print

    SVG for print (it scales without blurring), PNG for screens and documents.

What’s inside a Wi-Fi QR code

A Wi-Fi QR code holds one short line of text in a format phones have recognised for years: WIFI:T:WPA;S:YourNetwork;P:YourPassword;; — the security type, the network name, and the password. The phone’s camera reads it and offers to join. There’s no link, no website and no server in between, which is why the code works offline and keeps working forever.

Semicolons, commas, colons, quotes and backslashes have special meaning in that format, so a password containing them has to be escaped or the phone reads the wrong password. The generator above escapes them for you — a common reason codes made by hand, or by careless tools, fail with “unable to join network”.

Does it work on iPhone and Android?

Yes. The iPhone camera has joined Wi-Fi from QR codes since iOS 11, and Android phones from Android 10 onward can do it from the camera, Google Lens, or the Wi-Fi settings screen. Older Android phones may need a QR scanner app. Some Android phones struggle with WPA3-only networks; if yours is one, switch the router to WPA2/WPA3 mixed mode or test before printing.

Changing your password means a new code

Because the password is written into the pattern, a Wi-Fi code can’t be edited — and a dynamic code can’t help here, since a phone only joins Wi-Fi from a code that contains the credentials themselves. If you rotate your guest password often, keep a stable guest network for the code, or plan to print a new one; making it again is free and takes seconds.

Treat the code like a password written on a card. Anyone who photographs it can join, so put it on a guest network kept separate from the devices you run your business on.

Print & placement tips
  • Label it plainly — “Scan to join Wi-Fi” — and print the network name and password underneath for anyone whose phone won’t scan.
  • Print at least 2.5 cm (1 inch) wide. For wall signs, make the code about a tenth of the distance people scan from.
  • Keep strong contrast: dark code on a light background. Inverted or pale codes fail on many phones.
  • Good spots: reception desks, café tables, guest-room doors, holiday-let welcome books, meeting rooms.
Questions

Wi-Fi QR codes — common questions

Is this WiFi QR code generator free?
Yes. Wi-Fi codes are static, so they need no account, carry no watermark and cost nothing — they never touch our servers.
Does a WiFi QR code expire?
No. The network name and password are stored in the code itself, so it works for as long as those details stay the same. Nothing about it depends on QRever or any other service.
Is it safe? Can QRever see my Wi-Fi password?
We can’t — the code is generated entirely in your browser and your password is never sent to us. The real exposure is the printed code: anyone who scans or photographs it gets the password, so use a guest network.
What happens if I change my Wi-Fi password?
The old code stops working, because it still holds the old password. Make a new code with the new password — it’s free — and replace the printed one.
Can I make a QR code for a hidden network?
Yes. Tick “Hidden network” in the generator so the code tells the phone the network doesn’t broadcast its name, and enter the name exactly.
Can I add my logo to a WiFi QR code?
Yes. Add a logo and set colours in the design step; the code switches to its highest error correction so it still scans with the logo in the middle.
