Sharing WiFi credentials with guests, customers, or colleagues has never been easier or more secure. The WiFi QR Code Generator creates a scannable QR code that encodes your network name (SSID), password, and security type in the standardized WiFi QR code format. Anyone with a smartphone camera can scan the code and connect to your WiFi network instantly — no need to type long passwords, share them verbally, or post them on a wall where they compromise security.
The tool supports every major WiFi security standard: WPA3-Personal (the newest and most secure), WPA2-Personal (the most widely used), WPA2/WPA3-Transition (mixed mode for compatibility with older and newer devices), WPA-Personal (legacy), WPA2-Enterprise (802.1X with EAP-PEAP, EAP-TTLS, and EAP-TLS for corporate and institutional networks), WEP (legacy, not recommended), open networks with no password, and Enhanced Open (OWE) which provides encryption without requiring a shared password. You can also mark the network as hidden if your SSID is not broadcast. Each QR code is generated using the industry-standard WiFi QR code format (WIFI:T:...;S:...;P:...;E:...;A:...;PH2:...;H:...;) which is natively supported by iOS (11+), Android (10+), and most modern QR code scanner applications.
WiFi QR codes are perfect for a vast range of environments. Homes can display a QR code in the kitchen or living room so guests connect without asking for the password. Cafes and restaurants eliminate the friction of printing and replacing password cards by displaying a QR code at each table or at the counter. Hotels and Airbnb rentals provide QR codes in welcome packets or room key cards so guests connect instantly upon arrival. Co-working spaces and offices publish QR codes in common areas, meeting rooms, and reception desks, making network access seamless for visitors and employees alike. Event venues generate QR codes for temporary event WiFi networks, automatically expiring after the event concludes. Schools and universities distribute QR codes to students for secure network enrollment. In every case, the QR code eliminates the security risks and user friction associated with sharing passwords in plain text.
Enterprise WiFi (802.1X) support sets this tool apart from most free WiFi QR code generators. Corporate IT teams can generate QR codes for WPA2-Enterprise networks by selecting the EAP method (PEAP, TTLS, or TLS), entering the user password, optionally setting the anonymous identity for privacy during the initial EAP handshake, and choosing the phase 2 authentication protocol (MSCHAPV2, PAP, CHAP, MSCHAP, or GTC). iOS devices and most modern Android devices support QR-based enterprise enrollment natively, allowing employees and guests to connect to corporate networks without manual configuration. The anonymous identity field is particularly valuable for enterprise deployments — it allows the device to send a generic identifier (like "anonymous@domain.com") before the TLS tunnel is established, protecting the user's real identity until the connection is encrypted.
The tool uses High (H) error correction level (15% error recovery) for WiFi QR codes. This provides an optimal balance between data capacity — WiFi QR codes contain more information than simple URL codes, especially for Enterprise configurations with multiple fields — and scanning reliability. Medium error correction ensures the QR code remains scannable even with minor surface damage, low-contrast printing, or less-than-ideal lighting conditions, while still keeping the QR code compact enough to fit on small cards, table tents, or key fobs. As with all tools on this platform, QR codes are generated entirely in your browser using client-side JavaScript — your network credentials, passwords, and enterprise authentication details never leave your device.
Example 1 — Personal Network:
SSID: "Guest WiFi"
Security: WPA2-Personal
Password: "welcome2026"
Hidden: No
Encoded Data: WIFI:T:WPA;S:Guest WiFi;P:welcome2026;;
Example 2 — Enterprise Network:
SSID: "CorpNet"
Security: WPA2-Enterprise
EAP Method: PEAP
Password: "user@password"
Anonymous Identity: "anonymous@corp.com"
Phase 2 Auth: MSCHAPV2
Hidden: Yes
Encoded Data: WIFI:T:WPA2-EAP;S:CorpNet;P:user@password;E:PEAP;A:anonymous@corp.com;PH2:MSCHAPV2;H:true;
iPhone (iOS 11 and later) and most Android devices (Android 10 and later) can scan WiFi QR codes directly from the built-in camera app without installing any third-party app. Simply point the camera at the QR code and tap the notification to connect.
The password is encoded as plain text within the QR code data. Anyone who scans the code can view the raw QR content and read the password. Treat the QR code with the same care as a printed password — display it only in trusted locations.
Yes, select "None (Open Network)" as the security type. The QR code will connect users without requiring a password. Note that open networks transmit data without encryption.
OWE (Opportunistic Wireless Encryption), defined in IEEE 802.11-2016, provides individual encryption for each client on an open network without requiring a shared password. It prevents passive eavesdropping by encrypting data between each device and the access point. Older devices may not support it — select "None (Open Network)" for maximum compatibility.
Yes. Select "WPA2-Enterprise (802.1X)" and configure the required fields: EAP method (PEAP, TTLS, or TLS), user password, anonymous identity (optional), and phase 2 authentication protocol. iOS and most Android devices support QR-based enterprise enrollment natively.
The anonymous identity is sent during the initial EAP request before the secure TLS tunnel is established. It is commonly set to something like "anonymous@domain.com" to hide the user's real identity until the connection is encrypted. Some RADIUS servers require this field to route the authentication request correctly.
Three EAP methods are supported: PEAP (Protected EAP) with MSCHAPV2 — the most common enterprise WiFi authentication method, EAP-TTLS (Tunneled TLS) with MSCHAPV2, and EAP-TLS (certificate-based). PEAP and TTLS use a password, while TLS requires client certificates.
Check the "Hidden network" option. The generated QR code will include the hidden network flag (H:true), which tells devices to actively probe for this network even when it is not broadcasting its SSID in beacon frames.
High (H) — providing 30% error recovery. This provides maximum damage tolerance for WiFi QR codes (especially Enterprise configurations with multiple fields). The code remains readable even with significant surface damage or low-contrast printing.
Absolutely. Home WiFi networks typically use WPA2-Personal or WPA3-Personal security. Enter your SSID and password, generate the QR code, print it, and place it in your kitchen or living room for guests.
The format is based on the standard defined by the WiFi Alliance and is widely supported. iOS (11+), Android (10+), and third-party QR scanner apps all recognize the WIFI:... format and use it to configure network connections automatically.
Yes, but special characters like semicolons, backslashes, commas, colons, and double quotes are properly escaped in the generated QR code data. Most modern devices handle these correctly, but older or unusual devices may have issues with non-alphanumeric characters.
