How to Create a WiFi QR Code in 3 Steps
Raise your hands if you have been there 🙌
You invited a few friends over for a fun Friday night. As they settle in, they ask you for your WiFi password. You jump to the arduous task of spelling out the lengthy, strong password you had set, but one friend keeps making a mistake with the caps or the alphanumerics in the password.
Worse if you forget the WiFi password (It happened to me many times)!
Manually entering passwords is time-consuming and prone to errors.
But things changed after I started using Uniqode’s QR Code generator to generate WiFi QR Codes.
