How WiFi QR codes work
A WiFi QR code is not a web link. It holds your network details in a short text format, like WIFI:T:WPA;S:MyNetwork;P:secret;;. Phones recognise this format and offer to join the network.
Symbols in your network name or password
Some symbols, \ ; , : ", have a special meaning in that format. If your network name or password contains one, it needs a backslash in front of it. A network called Café; Guest breaks without this: the code scans, but the phone looks for the wrong network. This tool adds the backslashes for you.
Hidden networks
If your network name does not show up in the WiFi list, tick "Hidden network". Otherwise the phone scans the code, cannot find the network, and gives up. If a code works at home but not at the office, this is often why.
Made to survive being printed
These codes get taped to walls and printed on table cards. They get scuffed and scanned at an angle. So damage tolerance is always set to Highest here.
Your password stays in this browser
The QR code is made on this page. Nothing is uploaded, so your password never reaches any server, including ours. You can check this in your browser's network tab.
