Reserved backslash, semicolon, quote, comma, and colon characters are escaped before assembling WIFI:T:…;S:…;P:…;H:…;;. Compatibility remains scanner-dependent.
Client-Side Generation
The component calls the loaded QR library in the browser and does not intentionally persist the fields. This is a limited implementation statement, not a guarantee about browsers, extensions, screenshots, or copied/downloaded artifacts.
Validation and Export
SSID input is measured as UTF-8 and limited to 32 bytes; secured modes require a password. Render and export failures are displayed, and PNG/print actions remain disabled until a current render succeeds.

Example Scenarios
Create a separate guest-network code, scan-test the print, display it only to intended visitors, and rotate credentials when access should end.
A cafe uses an isolated guest network and validates the actual printed code across representative devices before putting it on tables.
An organizer treats the QR as public credentials, coordinates network capacity and expiry separately, and avoids encoding private administrative access.
FAQ
The tool escapes reserved WIFI payload characters and encodes the exact SSID, security label, password, and hidden-network flag. A compatible scanner may offer to join; connection is not guaranteed.
The panel emits WPA for WPA/WPA2-style credentials, WEP for legacy networks, and nopass for open networks. It does not expose an enterprise-authentication or distinct WPA3 payload mode.
No. Camera, operating-system, security-mode, captive-portal, and device-policy support varies. Scan-test the final image or printout on the devices you expect guests to use.
This panel does not intentionally save credentials in localStorage. The password is still present in the page state, QR pixels, copied WIFI payload, downloads, printouts, screenshots, and any browser or device facilities involved in those actions.
Yes. Download PNG or print from the panel, then scan-test the actual output. Treat the printout like the password itself and remove or replace it when access should end.
About WiFi QR Code Generator
Enter the network name exactly, choose WPA/WPA2, legacy WEP, or open access, and add the password when required. The QR is rendered in this tab, but it contains recoverable plaintext credentials and must be scan-tested before sharing.
