On Android, go to "network details" for a wifi that you're logged into and click the "share" button and it will create a QR code for logging in.
- HnUser12 3y agoiPhones don’t :(
- xutopia 3y agoiPhones share with contacts if you bring phones close to one another. No need for QR code.

- itslennysfault 3y agoAndroid's share does both. Enables NFC sharing and shows a QR code. Don't worry, I'm sure iPhone will catch up in a few years. :-)
- grodriguez100 3y agoEhm, iPhones do support this just fine: https://appleinsider.com/articles/21/05/14/how-to-make-a-qr-code-to-connect-guests-to-your-wi-fi/amp/ https://appleinsider.com/articles/21/05/14/how-to-make-a-qr-... I have used this many times without a problem.
- dhosek 3y agoIt’s also a feature in the AT&T Smart Home app. The printing from iOS is not ideal so I have an 8" square QR code taped to the wall for people who want to join my guest network.
