  1. Open the Wi-Fi QR generator and confirm the Wi-Fi tab is selected.

  7. Test the QR code with a phone camera before sharing it with guests.

Tips for reliable scanning

  • Print the QR code at least 3 inches wide.
  • Keep high contrast: dark code on a light background.
  • Leave a quiet margin around the code for faster scans.
  • Save a backup image in case you need to reprint.

Wi-Fi QR code FAQ

Is a Wi-Fi QR code secure?

Anyone who scans it can see the credentials. Share it only where you want guests to have access.

Should I use PNG or SVG?

Use PNG for quick sharing or screenshots. Use SVG for signage and large prints.

Does it work offline?

Yes. The QR code encodes the Wi-Fi data directly, so it does not require a server or internet connection to create.
