The free version shows ads; Premium removes them. • iOS does not let apps read your saved Wi-Fi password, so you type it once. "Use current" fills in the network name (Location permission). • Anyone who scans the code gets the password. For a wall sign use a guest network, and print a new code if you change the password. • Codes are made on your device. No account. Enterprise (802.1X) networks are not supported. • Premium: weekly, monthly or yearly subscription, or a one-time purchase.
