Do WiFi QR codes work on iPhone and Android?

Yes. Modern iPhones (iOS 11+) and Android phones (9+) read WiFi QR codes with the built-in camera — point, tap the notification, and you are connected. No third-party app is needed.

Is it safe to share my WiFi as a QR code?

A WiFi QR code contains your network name and password in plain text, so only share it with people you would give the password to anyway. For cafes and offices, put it on a guest network rather than your main one.

What if I change my WiFi password?

A static WiFi QR code stops working when you change the password — you would reprint it. If you expect changes, a dynamic QR that points to a connection page is more flexible.

How to Make a WiFi QR Code (Free, No App)

What a WiFi QR code does

A WiFi QR code encodes your network name (SSID), password, and security type. When a guest scans it with their phone camera, the phone offers to join the network automatically — no typing, no spelling out "capital P, lowercase z, the number for the letter o." It is the single fastest way to get visitors online.

How to make one in 30 seconds

Open the Scanmint QR generator and pick the WiFi type.
Enter your network name (SSID) exactly as it appears, including capitalization.
Choose the security type (WPA/WPA2 for almost all modern routers) and type the password.
Customize the colors if you like, then download as PNG or SVG.

Print it on a table tent, a sticker by the door, or a framed card at reception.

Where WiFi QR codes shine

Cafes and restaurants, short-term rentals and Airbnbs, offices and waiting rooms, and home guests. Anywhere people ask "what's the WiFi?", a QR code answers it instantly and makes you look polished.

Static vs dynamic

A free static code is perfect when your password rarely changes. If you rotate your guest password regularly, consider a dynamic QR code so you can update the destination without reprinting. Either way, start free with the generator.
