Making a qr code for wifi password

SSID: none

Passphrase: none

Ever wanted to create a cool QR code for your guests? But never wanted to type in your WiFi credentials into a form that submits them to a remote webserver to render the QR code? QiFi for the rescue! It will render the code in your browser, on your machine, so the WiFi stays as secure as it was before (read the code if you do not trust text on the internet :-))!

If you use the Save-button to store a code, this is still secure, as the data is stored in HTML5 localStorage and is never transmitted to the server (in contrast to cookie-based solutions).

Don't trust your browser either? Just pipe the string WIFI:S:<SSID>;T:<WPA|WEP|>;P:<password>;; through the QR code generator of your choice after reading the documentation.

Tips for using a QR generator

Our online QR creator is designed to immediately suggest the optimal parameters for your network. It’s better to choose WPA/WPA2 wireless security protocol - this is the most secure option.

Before presenting the Wi-Fi QR code to other people, be sure to test it. Open the QR scanner or camera on your smartphone and point it at your code. A notification window will appear immediately, prompting you to connect to Wi-Fi. If this doesn’t happen - check whether you filled the fields correctly when creating the QR code online.

Our Wi-Fi QR code generator also allows you to edit any QR code. Just register, create a dynamic QR code and then change it if your network has changed parameters. Thanks to this feature, you don’t need to recreate, print, and post the QR code.

Wi-Fi QR code decryption will not be difficult for users. They just need to open the QR Scanner and scan the QR code. Once they try to do this, the next time they’ll be connected to the network almost automatically!
