Don’t use
So my guest after scanning is taken to an internet site that gives the network and password that they now have to copy and add manually. What a scam.
Waste of money for what literally is a block of finely designed wood.
Cute idea, but completely useless if you configure the device with a phone you don’t have anymore. There also isn’t a way to contact anyone at Ten One for support with the device. Do yourself a favor, just share the password with anyone who needs access to WiFi.
Not for iPhone
Works well with Android phones but pointless with iOS. Tap to connect an Android, better off with a Dymo label if sharing a password to an iPhone user. 3 stars only because you get half the inferred use of the product.
Agree with all negative reviews
Such a lovely, yet poorly functional design. This provides no benefit for iOS users because iPhones cannot tap NFC to join networks. There is workaround to use a template for a QR code on the back but it is nearly impossible to remove the plastic backing without cracking it. The back design feels like something that was tested in a factory conference room and no one accounted for swelling in storage/shipping or the glue making its way into the crevices. Even after Overall, a badly designed, overpriced product.

Pointless for IOS
I assumed it would be a way to share my network without giving out passwords. Nope. I could have just as easily and more cheaply printed out my network name and my password on a piece of paper and glued them to a block of wood. Btw, the plastic backs cracked on both blocks because glue bleeding from the rubber grommet glued the covers you need to remove down. Sigh. Lesson learned.

Simple setup and great execution
The porter product is a great stylish item to have in my hope to reliably share my WiFi with guests.
NFC is useful for new phones & the QR code you can customise during setup is neat for older devices. It even has a place to show the password if needed for older devices, far better than having to go to the router.

An Expensive QR Code that doesn’t work
It’s just a QR Code for iPhones and to make matters worse, the QR code doesn’t even show up on the back of the wood block, and to make matters even worse, there is little to no documentation. Steer clear.
What a waste!
Don’t believe the ads if you are an iPhone user. Essentially the product is a less than fancy case to allow you to print a QR code that you cut out from a sheet of paper and insert into the transparent back of the wood block. A user then flips the block and uses his camera to scan the QR code. I’m not kidding. No tap and go as advertised. There are a lot cheaper ways to do this, and the wooden holder for the self-printed QR code isn’t worth the dollars.

Kinda lame
Just telling someone the password would be easier
Intuitive app with great visualisation of the end product
I've had my porter for two weeks now and this app is a pleasure to work with. I love the visualisation of the end result the best. It's had its problems but the developer and support have been incredibly responsive to fix them. Thanks guys!
Complete Scam
This product and this app is a complete scam. It does not work as advertised. All it does is send you to a URL with the network name and password. It does not automatically log into the Wi-Fi network as advertised. I purchased two of these. What a rip off.
Great Idea, poor execution and overpriced product
This app is so dreadful and the Porter itself is overpriced for what it is. unnecessarily complicated user interface and unreliable, how many time do you have to add a Porter to a location, it seems like every time I log on it’s deleted the Porter that I have, even though I’m signed in to my account. I’ve just given up on this and thrown it in the drawer.

It does not work for iOS 16
I am not sure what the experience is like for other systems but in iOS 16 it simply displays the network name and passcode. Also no option for WPA3 security. Don’t waste your money and time.
No WPA3
Will not work with any home that uses updated WPA3 secure authentication.
Great product
Love this company and all their products.
Create your own QR code is gone!!!
That was an awesome feature which I would have paid for. Now that it’s gone I really won’t be buying any of your blocks!!!
Not working
When you an the NFC tag for the initial setup, it will read and just go back to the getting started screen.
Almost for iOS
iOS by camera works perfectly, tap could be better. I do like that I can hid my WiFi password from guests.
This app doesn’t work
I have an iPhone XR. After confirming my wifi, I click next and it returns to the splash screen. It did not set up my porter and I never was prompted to print anything for the back of my porter. The only step it had me complete was to enter my wifi information and confirm the look and advanced options.

Cool idea still needs work
It took me awhile to get it to where it prompted me to print the QR code. I finally got it. When I tried it, it worked and connected to my wifi but when I turned off wifi on my iPhone and turned it back on, I had to re-scan the QR code with the camera. Wish it would keep the wifi configuration on the phone but then again it’s good for visitors, just a one time connection. Wish there was a setting on the app that would allow you to enable/disable iPhones/androids from keeping the wifi settings or just a one time connection.
