Wi-Fi QR Generator

WEB

Generate a scannable Wi-Fi QR code from your network name and password so guests can join instantly with their phone camera, no typing needed.

Security

Enter a network name

Fill in the SSID to generate a scannable Wi-Fi QR code.

Anyone who scans this code joins your Wi-Fi instantly — no typing the password. Keep it private.

What is the Wi-Fi QR Generator tool?

This Wi-Fi QR code generator packs your network name (SSID), password, and security type into a single scannable code. Point any modern phone camera at it and the device offers to join the network on the spot — no fumbling through a long, mixed-case password on a tiny keyboard, and no reading it out loud to guests.

Enter your SSID, choose WPA/WPA2, WEP, or an open network, and the code updates live as you type — the same instant-preview pattern used across Carbide's QR tools. For an open network the password field disables itself automatically, since there is nothing to encode. A show/hide toggle lets you check the password is typed correctly before you generate or print the code.

It is built for the moments a written password card cannot cover well: a café or Airbnb welcome sign, a home office guest network, a small office reception desk, a classroom, or a family gathering where everyone needs the Wi-Fi at once. Download the code as an SVG to print at any size with no blur, or share it directly. Everything happens in your browser — your password is never sent anywhere, so it stays as private as the network itself.

How to use the Wi-Fi QR Generator

  1. Type your network name (SSID) exactly as it appears on your router.
  2. Choose the security type — WPA/WPA2, WEP, or None for an open network.
  3. Enter the Wi-Fi password (skip this for an open network — the field disables itself).
  4. Use the show/hide toggle to double-check the password before generating.
  5. Download the QR code or share it so guests can scan and join instantly.

Frequently asked questions

How does a Wi-Fi QR code work?

It encodes your network name, password, and security type in a standard format that phone cameras recognize. Scanning it prompts the device to join the network automatically, without you having to type anything.

Is my Wi-Fi password safe when I generate this code?

Yes. The QR code is built entirely in your browser — your SSID and password never leave your device or get sent to a server. Treat the printed code the same way you'd treat a written password: don't post it somewhere the public can scan it if you want to keep the network private.

Does this work for open networks with no password?

Yes. Choose 'None' as the security type and the password field disables itself automatically — the code will just tell devices to join the open network.

Will the QR code work if I change my Wi-Fi password later?

No — the code is generated from the password at the moment you create it. If you change your network password or name, generate and print a new code so guests keep getting a working one.

What phones can scan a Wi-Fi QR code?

Most modern iPhones (iOS 11+) and Android phones (Android 10+) can scan a Wi-Fi QR code directly from the built-in camera app, with no extra app needed.
