A Wi-Fi QR code encodes your SSID, password, and encryption type into a single image. Anyone scanning it with a modern phone camera is offered a one-tap join. Capy QR runs entirely in your browser, so the password you enter never leaves your device — no servers, no logs, no signup. Print the result on a sticker for the café counter, frame it for an Airbnb, or drop it into a slide deck for the office.

How to generate a QR code for Wi-Fi

Type your network name (SSID) exactly as it appears on your phone, including capitals and spaces, then your password, and pick the security type — WPA covers almost every home and business router. Tick “Hidden” only if your network doesn't broadcast its name. Style the code, add a “Wi-Fi” frame label, and download it. Before printing, scan it with an iPhone and an Android phone and check that both offer to join.

How guests connect with a Wi-Fi QR code

On iPhone and most Android phones, guests open the camera, point it at the code and tap the “Join network” prompt — no typing. On Android phones whose camera doesn't read QR codes, the Scan QR code tile in Quick Settings or Google Lens does the same. If a phone shows the details but doesn't connect, the usual cause is a typo in the network name or password, or the wrong security type.

Where to find your Wi-Fi name and password

The network name and default password are usually printed on a sticker on the router. If you changed them, check your router's admin page or your internet provider's app. On a connected phone: on iPhone (iOS 16 and later) go to Settings → Wi-Fi, tap the ⓘ next to the network and tap Password; on Android 10 and later, open the network in Wi-Fi settings and tap Share — the password is shown under the QR code it displays.

Where to put a Wi-Fi QR code

Anywhere guests ask for the password: a framed card in an Airbnb or guest room, a counter sign in a café or salon, a table tent in a restaurant, the welcome screen of an office meeting room, or a sticker on the fridge at home. For a framed sign, 5 cm (2 in) or larger scans comfortably from arm's length. Add the network name in plain text under the code as a fallback.

Is it safe to share Wi-Fi with a QR code?

The code contains your password in readable form — anyone who scans it, or reads it with a QR app, can see it. That's fine for a guest network you're happy to share, so use a separate guest network for visitors where your router supports it, and don't post the code for your private network where strangers can photograph it. Capy QR builds Wi-Fi codes in your browser, so the password isn't sent to our servers.

How it works

  1. 1

    Enter your Wi-Fi details

    Type your network name (SSID) and password, pick the encryption type (WPA is by default), and check the hidden box if your network doesn't broadcast.

  2. 2

    Customize the look

    Match the QR to your brand or the room — solid color or gradient, dot style, eye markers, optional center logo (Capy QR auto-bumps error correction so it stays scannable), and a frame border with a 'Wi-Fi' label.

  3. 3

    Download in the format you need

    Export as PNG, JPEG, SVG, or PDF at up to 3,200 pixels. No signup, no watermark, no limit on downloads.

Pretty by default. Powerful when you need it.

Frequently asked questions

Is the password safe?

Yes. The QR is generated entirely in your browser. Your network name and password never reach Capy QR's servers — there are no servers in this flow.

Will iPhone and Android both auto-join?

Yes. Wi-Fi QR codes use a standard format (WIFI:T:WPA;S:Name;P:Password;;) that iOS and Android have supported natively in their cameras since 2017–2018.

Should I use the guest network?

For cafés, Airbnbs, and offices, yes. A guest SSID isolates visitors from your private devices and lets you change the guest password without disrupting your own gear.

Can I add my logo to the Wi-Fi QR?

Yes. When you add a logo, Capy QR sizes it automatically, raises error correction to the highest level (H) and clears the dots behind it, so the code stays scannable. Test it with two phones before printing.

Can I change the Wi-Fi password without reprinting the QR code?

No. A Wi-Fi QR code has to contain the network name and password itself — the phone needs them to join, and there's no link to redirect. When you change the password, make a new code and replace the old sticker. That's true of every Wi-Fi QR generator, which is a good reason to use a guest network with a password you rarely change.

Does a Wi-Fi QR code work with WPA3?

Pick WPA for WPA, WPA2 and most WPA3 networks running in transition mode, which phones join normally. If your router is set to WPA3-only, test the code with both an iPhone and an Android phone before printing.

What size should I print it?

Rule of thumb: minimum side length is one tenth the typical scan distance. A QR meant to be read from 30 cm should be printed at least 3 cm wide. Larger is always safer.

Does it expire?

Static Wi-Fi QR codes never expire — the data is baked into the image. The QR stops working only if you change your network's name, password, or encryption.
