Create it

Open the free QR code generator and choose "Wi-Fi network".

Enter your network name (SSID) exactly as it appears, your password, and the security type (WPA for almost all modern routers).

Download the PNG and print it, or put it on a table card or the fridge.

How guests use it

On iPhone and most Android phones, open the camera, point it at the code and tap the "Join network" banner. No app is needed.

Tips

Use a separate guest network so visitors cannot see your other devices. If you change the Wi-Fi password, make a new QR code – the password is stored inside the code itself, so it never expires on its own.

Frequently asked questions

Do Wi-Fi QR codes expire?

No. They contain your network details directly and keep working until you change the password.

Is a Wi-Fi QR code safe?

Anyone who scans it can join, so only display it where you would share the password anyway.

Which security type should I choose?

WPA covers WPA, WPA2 and WPA3 networks, which is almost every router made in the last 15 years.
