Tips for a code that scans every time

Questions and answers

Is a WiFi QR code safe?

The code contains your network name and password, just like a note on the wall. Only show it where you would be happy to share the password, and use a guest network for visitors where you can.

Does it work on iPhone and Android?

Yes. Recent iPhones and Android phones recognise WiFi codes in the built-in camera app. On some older Android phones you may need Google Lens or a QR scanner app.

What if my network is hidden?

Tick “This is a hidden network” so phones know to look for it.

Does it work with company networks that ask for a username?

No. WiFi QR codes work with networks that use one shared password (WPA, WPA2 or WPA3 Personal). Enterprise networks that ask each person to sign in can’t be shared this way.

Does the code expire?

No. It works until you change the network name or password.
