Free Online App to Create Wi-Fi QR Codes

November 24, 2022

A QR code is a machine-readable pattern that consists of black and white squares. Such graphic codes can be scanned by smartphone cameras and are easy to use. QR codes benefit from high recognition speed and can store various types of data (text, numbers, URL links, and so on). The size of QR code images can be quite compact owing to high data density.    

In this article, we explain how QR codes can be used to share Wi-Fi settings. Aspose.BarCode provides a quick and simple way to generate Wi-Fi QR codes using the free online application based on the functionality implemented in the Aspose.BarCode API.

What Is Wi-Fi QR Code

Wi-Fi QR codes have the same properties and structure as basic QR codes. Their specificity relates to the format of the stored data. Such QR codes contain information about a network name, its type, optional password, and visibility. Upon scanning such a QR code, the scanner embedded in a user’s mobile phone launches the procedure of connecting a Wi-Fi network and processes the stored data to get access to this network. As such, users can connect to Wi-Fi networks in a matter of a couple of clicks using their mobile phones or other mobile devices.

Where to Use Wi-Fi QR Codes

Wi-Fi QR codes are applicable to any type of network, including large unprotected networks intended for public use or small private ones protected by passwords.   With Wi-Fi QR codes, there is no need to search and then enter the network name and password or register using personal information. You can connect to a network just by pointing the phone camera or a QR code scanner app to the dedicated QR code, and the Wi-Fi connection will be set up automatically. Wi-Fi QR codes can be used to facilitate sharing Wi-Fi settings in many business and everyday applications:
–   Home Wi-Fi for relatives, friends, and guests
–   Corporate Wi-Fi for employees and visitors  
–   Public urban Wi-Fi for citizens and tourists
–   Wi-Fi in airports and train stations
–   Hotel Wi-Fi for guests and personnel
–   Wi-Fi for clients and personnel in the service sector: restaurants, bars, beauty shops, gyms, etc.
