There are a few methods for unknown device connections, but it's usually one of, or a combination of:
- a special qr code format that informs an app about the wifi network/wifi password (and other setup info)
- an app scans your wifi networks and joins the one that starts with the device's prefix (not supported on iOS except via a special api[0])
- app requests bluetooth permission, connects to the bluetooth accessory, and from there it exchanges temporary wifi AP info or does the entire setup over BLE
