How to generate a QR code with the Wi-Fi password on a Cat S22 Flip

If you want to share the password or key of the network your Cat S22 Flip is connected to, and quickly set it up on another Android device (whether it's a Cat or another brand), this tutorial will show you how. We'll guide you on using the native method included in Android 10 and later versions to generate a QR code with the Wi-Fi password.

The Cat S22 Flip comes with Android 11 out of the box, though it may have received updates over time.

Once you generate the QR code on your S22 Flip, you can scan it with the camera of the other device or download it as an image. This way, you can reuse the code whenever you need without repeating these steps.

In the final step, you'll also be able to view the password in case you need to copy it or manually enter it on another device that cannot read QR codes.

Estimated time: 2 minutes.

1- First step:

First of all we must make sure that we are connected to the Wi-Fi network that we want to share from our Cat. If so, access the S22 Flip settings by tapping the gear wheel icon. If you do not see it on the Cat S22 Flip home screen, swipe up from the bottom of the screen to find it.

Final notes

Remember that you can generate a QR code for each different Wi-Fi network to which you connect from your Cat S22 Flip. If these steps to see the QR code of the Wi-Fi network on your Cat S22 Flip have not been useful, check again that the Cat S22 Flip is connected to the Wi-Fi network and not through the data connection.

If you cannot find the QR code following the indicated steps, you may need to update the operating system of the Cat S22 Flip that comes from the factory with Android version 11, see this tutorial: How to update Android operating system.
