      I think you need to know the right text to make a WiFi code that phones pick up.

      For a convoluted route…

      1. Sign in to the WiFi on a phone
      2. Share the WiFi qr code from your phone
      3. Get Binary Eye app on another phone
      4. Scan the WiFi qr code from the first phone with Binary Eye from the second
      5. See the text output!
      6. (For other WiFis) Customise the said (WiFi name) and password fields appropriately.
      7. Put that text in a qr code creator (like the one from the comment above)
      8. Use the resulting qr code.

      Edit: to skip 1-5,

      WIFI:S:((WiFi name));T:WPA;P:((password));H:false;;

      Replace the “((WiFi name))” and “((password))” with the name and password

        This is basically what I did, and yeah, I made my friends their own QR codes!!

        For the non-tech people though the printed screenshot method works too and is much easier!
