The Hidden Feature On Every Modern Phone

iPhone since iOS 11 and Android since version 10 support Wi-Fi QR codes natively — point the camera app at a properly-formatted QR code, and the phone offers to join the network with one tap. No typing a 20-character password letter-by-letter into a tiny on-screen keyboard. No more printing 'Wi-Fi: GuestNet / Password: XyZ123…' on a sticker. One scan, one tap, joined.

The WIFI: Scheme Format

The QR payload follows a scheme Google introduced and Apple adopted: `WIFI:T:<security>;S:<ssid>;P:<password>;H:<hidden>;;`. `T` is the security type — `WPA` (covers WPA/WPA2/WPA3), `WEP` (legacy), or `nopass` (open network). `S` is the network SSID. `P` is the password (omitted for `nopass`). `H:true` marks hidden networks. Special characters in SSID or password are backslash-escaped to avoid ambiguity.

Hidden Networks

If your SSID is hidden — not broadcast, requires manual entry — the Wi-Fi QR still works; just check the 'Hidden network' toggle. The scan will prompt the user to join and include a flag telling the phone to request the SSID explicitly rather than passively listen for a broadcast. This is how the phone knows a 'not-in-the-nearby-list' SSID isn't a typo.

Use Cases That Matter

Small businesses — cafés, salons, gyms — print a Wi-Fi QR sticker for guest use. Airbnb and short-term hosts include one in the welcome book. Offices stick one by the front desk for visitors. Conference rooms post one beside the door. Anywhere you'd otherwise write a password on a whiteboard, a QR sticker replaces that friction with one scan. And since everything is generated in your browser here, the password never leaves your device when you're preparing the sticker.

FAQ

How do I use the QR code?

Print it, stick it on the fridge, and guests can hold their phone camera over it — iPhone since iOS 11 and Android since 10 can join a Wi-Fi network directly from a scan.

Does this work for hidden SSIDs?

Yes — check the 'Hidden network' toggle. The scan will still prompt the user to join, and the phone will know to request the SSID explicitly.

What security types are supported?

WPA / WPA2 / WPA3 (the most common), WEP (legacy), and open (no password). The scheme uses Google's widely-adopted WIFI: QR format.

Is my password uploaded?

No. The QR code is built locally in your browser — your password never leaves your device. We can't see it, and neither can anyone else.
