About this project
Manually entering WiFi details is a hassle, especially with long passwords and multiple SSIDs. Wify lets you scan printed WiFi names and passwords with your camera, generating a QR code for instant connection. No typing, no errors—just scan and connect. Open-source and Android-only for now.
Wify is a lightweight, open-source Android app designed to make connecting to WiFi easier. Instead of manually entering network details, users can scan printed WiFi names and passwords using their camera or import an image from their gallery. The app then generates a QR code, which can be used for instant connection via Google Lens or Circle to Search.
Key Features
- Scan WiFi details from printed text – No need to type long passwords.
- Import from gallery – Works with saved images too.
- Generate a QR code instantly – Use your phone’s built-in scanner or Google Lens to connect.
- Completely open-source – Free to use and improve.
- Minimal permissions – No unnecessary access required.
Who is it for?
- Frequent travelers – Easily connect to hotel, café, and coworking space WiFi.
- Remote workers – Avoid typing mistakes when connecting to new networks.
- Tech enthusiasts – A simple tool to streamline WiFi connections.
