Make QR codes for sharing links, contact info, home WiFi networks and much more. Create a QR code using Visual Codes for others to scan. Scanning a code is easy.

Tap Add Code and select from seven actions: Open Link, Search Web, Compose Email, Add Contact, Map Location, Call Phone Number and Connect to WiFi. Codes are automatically saved to your library, so you can always find them later. Drag and drop to bring your most-used codes to the top of the list. Share and print to send codes to friends. Print as Poster to fill the page with a large code, or use Grid mode to fit multiple codes per sheet. Change up the color palette with four styles; Bright, Default, Subtle and Lilac.

WPA/WPA2 is the most secure and common option — choose this if unsure. "None" means your network is open and unprotected. Why use a QR code to share WiFi?

Both are free to download. Visual Codes sells 2 one-off in-app purchases and WiFi QR Code Generator sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
WiFi QR Code Generator holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Visual Codes has 267 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 57% of Visual Codes's written reviews are positive against 0% of WiFi QR Code Generator's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Visual Codes ships an update every 2 months, WiFi QR Code Generator every 9 months. The most recent releases landed on September 30, 2026 and September 18, 2026 respectively.
