Before printing
Common Wi-Fi QR code mistakes
Changing capitalization
SSIDs and passwords can be case-sensitive. Copy both values exactly.
Choosing WEP for a WPA network
The security field must match the router or the join request will fail.
Testing on an already connected phone
Forget the network first or use another phone to verify the full join flow.
Publishing the staff password
Create a guest network before displaying a code in a public area.
Questions
Wi-Fi QR code FAQ
Does a Wi-Fi QR code reveal the password?
The password is encoded in the QR data and can be read by someone with a QR decoder. Treat a displayed code like sharing the password itself.
Will it work on iPhone and Android?
Current iOS and Android camera apps support standard Wi-Fi QR codes. Very old devices may need a scanner app.
Does the QR code expire?
No. It continues working until you change the SSID, password, or security settings.
Can I create a code for a hidden network?
Yes. Check the hidden-network option before generating, then test it on the devices your guests use.
