📱 Do all smartphones support WiFi QR codes?
Most modern smartphones (Android 10+ and iOS 11+) support WiFi QR codes natively through their camera apps. Older devices may need a QR code reader app.
🔒 Is it safe to share WiFi passwords via QR codes?
QR codes are as secure as sharing the password directly. The QR code contains the same information you would manually provide. Only share with trusted individuals.
🖨️ Can I print WiFi QR codes?
Yes! Use higher error correction levels (Quartile or High) for printed QR codes to ensure they remain scannable even with minor damage or wear.
🌐 What if my network name has special characters?
Special characters are supported, but some may need to be escaped. Our generator handles most special characters automatically.
📶 Does this work with 5GHz networks?
Yes, WiFi QR codes work with both 2.4GHz and 5GHz networks. The QR code contains the network name and password, not the frequency band.
🔄 Can I regenerate the same QR code later?
Yes, as long as you use the same network settings (SSID, password, security type), the generated QR code will be identical.
