About WiFi QR codes
A WiFi QR code encodes your details in a standard format that any phone camera or QR app can read. FileTinker builds it in your browser and renders a crisp, high-resolution image you can print or share — the data is embedded directly in the code, so it keeps working forever with no account or redirect.
For reliable scanning, keep a clear quiet zone (margin) around the code, use high contrast, and pick a higher error-correction level if the code will be small or printed on something textured. Everything runs locally, so your data stays private.
The WiFi QR format encodes your network name, password and security type (WPA/WEP or open, with a flag for hidden networks) as plain text inside the code — iPhones and Android phones join straight from the camera. Because anything that scans the code can read the password, print it for guests you'd happily hand the password to anyway, and make a new code when you change it.
Frequently asked questions
How do I make a WiFi QR code?
Fill in the fields above and FileTinker builds the WiFi QR code instantly. Adjust the size or colours if you like, then download it as a PNG or SVG.
Is the QR code free to use?
Yes. The QR codes you create are free for personal and commercial use, with no expiry and no tracking — they encode your data directly, not a redirect through us.
Will it still scan if I change the colours?
Usually — as long as there's strong contrast between the foreground and background and the code isn't inverted (light on dark can fail). A higher error-correction level also makes a code more robust. Always test it with a phone before printing.
Is my data uploaded?
No. The QR code is generated entirely in your browser from what you type — nothing is sent to a server or stored.
Is the WiFi password visible inside the QR code?
Yes — the code literally contains the password as text, which is what lets phones join instantly; any scanner app can display it. Treat the printed code like the password itself, and regenerate it whenever you rotate your WiFi password.
