It might not be a good idea to put your Wi-Fi password into a third-party website. I much prefer DIY solutions like the one at https://kmanc.github.io/be_my_guest/, where the password is rotated and the QR code automatically displayed on an E-Ink display.

I have a design rule that I don’t print non-standard and stylized QR codes: maybe they work on expensive iOS devices but have you tried cheap androids?

    I assume all Androids that are still getting updates have the same scanning code

      A lot of Androids (the ones I have kicking around) don't have a scanning app that comes with the OS so you have to install one, I think most of those use a commercial or open source QR code scanning library that they got from somewhere but not always the same somewhere.

      For my three-sided cards I finally realized I can just put a URL to a web-based QR code scanner on the back of my cards and not have any trouble navigating all the scammy looking listings you see when you look for a QR code reader on the play store.
