Where to put it.

Cafes, salons, waiting rooms, Airbnbs and offices usually tape it near the counter, on a table tent or inside the front door. Print it at least 2 cm (about an inch) wide, and add a line of text like “Scan to join Wi-Fi” so people know what it’s for.

If you change your Wi-Fi password, you’ll need a new code, because the network details are stored inside the pattern.

  1. Enter your network nameType it exactly as it appears in your phone’s Wi-Fi list, including capital letters.
  2. Add the password and security typeMost home and business routers use WPA/WPA2.
  3. Test it, then printScan it with your phone camera before you print copies.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

Do Wi-Fi QR codes work on iPhone?

Yes. iPhones running iOS 11 or later can join a network from the built-in Camera app. Android phones support this through the camera or Google Lens.

Is it safe to put my Wi-Fi password in a QR code?

The password is stored inside the code, so anyone who scans it can join. Use it for a guest network, not the network your business systems run on. FairQR never receives or stores your password.

Why won’t my Wi-Fi QR code connect?

The usual causes are a misspelled network name (it’s case-sensitive), the wrong security type, or a password that changed. Double-check each one and make a new code.
