How to Create a WiFi QR Code for Easy Sharing

A WiFi QR code lets guests connect to your network by scanning instead of typing a password. It is especially useful for cafes, hotels, offices, and home guests.

The WiFi QR code format: Use this exact string structure: WIFI:S:<network name>;T:<encryption type>;P:<password>;;

Parameters: - S: The network SSID (name). Case-sensitive. Escape semicolons and backslashes with a backslash. - T: Encryption type: WPA, WEP, or nopass (for open networks). WPA covers WPA2 and WPA3. - P: The network password. Case-sensitive. Leave empty for open networks. - The double semicolons at the end are required.

Examples: - WPA2 network: WIFI:S:MyCafe WiFi;T:WPA;P:coffee123;; - Open network: WIFI:S:PublicLibrary;T:nopass;P:;; - Hidden SSID: WIFI:S:MyNetwork;T:WPA;P:mypassword;H:true;;

How to generate: Paste the WiFi string into Tooler's QR Code Generator and download the SVG. Print it and display it where guests can easily scan it. Test by scanning with both iPhone and Android devices — they handle WiFi QR codes slightly differently.

Design tip: Add a small WiFi icon and the network name text near the QR code so guests know what it does before scanning. A simple label reading "Scan to connect to WiFi" improves adoption.
