Choose Wi-Fi, URL, vCard Contact, or Plain Text, fill in the fields, and generate a 100% static QR code directly in your browser. Because the payload is encoded directly into the QR modules with no redirect server, the code never expires and never tracks scans.
Static QR codes vs. paid 'dynamic' redirect traps
Many 'free' QR code websites encode their own tracking redirect URL instead of your actual link or Wi-Fi credentials—and then deactivate your code after a 14-day trial unless you pay a monthly subscription. This tool encodes your exact data directly into a standard ISO/IEC 18004 static QR matrix that works forever.
| QR Mode | Encoded Standard | Behavior When Scanned on iPhone |
|---|---|---|
| Wi-Fi Network | WIFI:T:WPA;S:<SSID>;P:<Password>;H:<Hidden>;; | Prompts 'Join Network' in iOS Camera without typing password |
| Website URL | Direct https:// URL string | Opens the exact destination with zero tracking redirect |
| vCard Contact | BEGIN:VCARD VERSION:3.0 contact record | Opens 'Add to Contacts' sheet on iPhone & Android |
| Plain Text / Note | UTF-8 text string | Displays or copies text offline without internet access |
How to make a Wi-Fi QR code for guests without uploading your password
Sharing a long random Wi-Fi password with house guests or office visitors is much easier with a printed QR code. However, typing your home SSID and Wi-Fi password into a random cloud website sends your network credentials to someone else's server.
Our QR generator runs the Reed-Solomon error-correction and matrix layout algorithm entirely inside your browser tab. You can inspect the exact raw `WIFI:T:WPA;...` payload string below the preview and download a print-ready SVG or PNG.
- Select the Wi-Fi tab in the generator above.
- Enter your network name (SSID), password, and encryption type (WPA/WPA2/WPA3).
- Verify the scannable QR code with your iPhone camera right on screen.
- Download the vector SVG (for printing) or high-res PNG.
Do QR codes expire? And should you download SVG or PNG?
A static QR code never expires. The black-and-white modules directly represent the characters of your URL, Wi-Fi network, or vCard. As long as the destination website exists (or your Wi-Fi password stays the same), the QR code will work 10 years from now.
Download SVG when placing a QR code on a business card, flyer, or signage so it scales to any print resolution with razor-sharp edges. Download PNG when dropping the code into a slide deck, email, or messaging app.
Frequently asked questions
01Do QR codes generated here ever expire or have scan limits?+
Never. These are true static QR codes that encode your exact text, URL, Wi-Fi, or vCard directly into the pattern with zero intermediary servers.
02Is my Wi-Fi password or vCard phone number sent to a server?+
No. The QR matrix is computed locally in JavaScript in your browser.
03Are QR codes safe to scan on iPhone?+
Always check the URL preview banner that the iOS Camera app displays before tapping it, and avoid scanning sticker QR codes pasted over public parking meters or menus.
