Gone are the days of spelling out "P@ssw0rd123!" to guests. WiFi QR codes encode your network credentials in a scannable format, allowing anyone to connect with a single tap. Here's everything you need to know about this game-changing utility.

Pass: *********

How WiFi QR Codes Work

A WiFi QR code contains a simple text string in a specific format that smartphones understand. When scanned, the device reads the SSID (network name) and password, then automatically prompts the user to join.

Security Considerations

Many people worry about exposing their password. Here's the reality:

  • • The password is encoded, not plainly visible to the casual observer
  • • You can print a Guest network QR separately from your private network
  • • The physical placement of the code controls who can access it

Best Places to Use WiFi QR Codes
