Advise Qr code wifi

So I saw @Luciffer do this at his home. There was a QR code and if you scan it, boom you are connected to wifi.
I downloaded a qrcode app on android, put wifi password and SSID and created a QR code. However when I scan it back it doesn't connect to wifi, it does however obtains the information about wifi. It pointed out downloading and installing another qrcode plugin for wifi, which is already installed but it was not helping in anyway.
Also I heard that iphone won't allow to connect anyway directly?
Help/Advice?

 

How to Share Your Wi-Fi Network with Friends, No Password Typing Required

Are you doing the same as this ?

 

yes, @dbg I thought that was apparent?

 

I mean like the very same steps or differently.

 

A Qr code to save the hassle of giving them SSID and password? Am I clear enough?

 

Interesting application.

 

Not really, maybe that's the problem. You should review your steps once more and see if you missed anything.

 

I have seen this stuff at Luciffers place. I don't think you have used it.

 

actually I just did,

Use QR Code Generator: QR Stuff Free Online QR Code Creator And Encoder For T-Shirts, Business Cards & Stickers to generate your Wifi Login Code

And

Code:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=tool.scanner

App to connect.

- Select Wifi Login (Android) at Step 1.
- For Step 2 Enter your Wifi Network Name as SSID and your Wifi password + Select the type of Encryption you are using. It should be WPA/WPA2
- Step 3 is Optional
- Now check the live preview of the generated QR Code and test it directly from the screen.

Now goto your phone's Wifi Settings - Turn on your Wifi -
"Forget" your existing Wifi Connection and then connect using the QR Code Scan & Barcode Scanner App to connect to your Wifi via your phone.

 

I was on that site initially. But then I used an app instead.

 

Share app please. I would like to do this for my home Wi-Fi as well.

 

Just look for qr code creator in your play store man.
