Tech Tips: The WiFi will connect in the blink of an eye, and you won't need a password..
Do you also believe that entering a password is necessary to connect to Wi-Fi? That's a misconception. Now, smartphones can connect to Wi-Fi networks without entering a password. Several easy and secure methods exist, such as QR codes, iPhone sharing options, and guest networks. Even users with older phones can avoid the hassle of repeatedly sharing passwords using these methods. Let's explore these methods.
Connect to Wi-Fi Instantly with a QR Code Scan
Nowadays, Android smartphones come with a built-in Wi-Fi sharing feature. After tapping on the connected network, selecting the "Share" option displays a QR code. The other person can scan this QR code and connect to the Wi-Fi without entering a password. You can also use this method to connect to someone else's Wi-Fi. This trick is secure and eliminates the need to share passwords.
Share Wi-Fi with Just One Tap on iPhone.
If both users have iPhones, connecting to Wi-Fi is even easier. Turn on Bluetooth on both phones and open the Wi-Fi settings. As soon as the other person selects the network, a request appears on your screen. Tapping "Share" automatically establishes the Wi-Fi connection. The password is not visible to anyone during this process, making it secure.
How to Do It on Older Smartphones
Even if your phone doesn't have a built-in QR code sharing option, you can still create a Wi-Fi QR code. Several free apps and websites are available where you can generate a QR code by entering the network name and password. Saving this QR code image eliminates the need to type the password every time. Anyone can scan your QR code to connect when needed.
You Can Use a Guest Network
Many routers offer a guest network feature that creates a separate connection for guests. Sharing this network keeps your main Wi-Fi network secure. The guest network also provides QR code or manual sharing options. This feature is especially useful in homes or offices where guests frequently visit.
