It would be great if 1Password would support showing QR codes for Wi-Fi passwords (see https://cweiske.de/tagebuch/wifi-config-qrcode.htm or https://qifi.org )


1Password Version: 7.9.3
Extension Version: Not Provided
OS Version: macOS 12.3

  • Hey @matiaskorhonen:

    This is a great idea! I've shared your thoughts about being able to generate the Wi-Fi QR codes straight from 1Password internally. Thanks for reaching out, and please get in touch if there's anything you need in the future.

    Any update on this feature request @Jack.P_1P? Both Android and iOS have supported WiFi QR codes for years, and it would be so handy to use. I just had to reset my phone network settings to troubleshoot an issue, and I thought to myself, surely 1Password supports this so I don't have to manually type my extremely long network password, but alas, it seems this is not the case.

  • Hey @EnerJi

    It is something that has been reviewed by our product team, but isn't on the roadmap at the moment. You can see some of the big projects we've got coming here. Perhaps once we get some of those off our plate we'll be able to add this on. 😃

    I actually can't tell what you're trying to tell me on that page, it's remarkably content free.

  • It is intentionally very high level. We've always been a company that keeps future plans internal. Even internally, many items are on a need to know basis. future.1password.com represents a small shift in that mindset toward providing some limited visibility into the categories we're spending the bulk of our time on.

  • Hey @matiaskorhonen and @EnerJi 👋

    I've got some great news. If you check out the 1Password beta on Desktop or mobile, you'll see something that I hope will have been worth the wait:

    Awesome! Thanks for the tag. This will hopefully roll out to stable by the time I need to use it again. ;)

  • @EnerJi My pleasure. Let us know if you run into any issues.

    @ag_andrew ,

    If the password changes, will that also update the QR code?

  • @TGP You bet it will. The QR code is generated live when you view the item, so it will always be up-to-date.

    Android version 8.10.34. Cannot see QR code for wi-fi. Item has network name and wireless network password fields defined. Under Settings, Security I see no setting for Concealed Fields.

  • Hey @CharlesBasin It should be available in 8.10.36 which I'm hoping will be available very soon.

    I just installed version 8.10.36. All set. Thanks.

  • On behalf of Andrew, you're welcome.
