Bug ID: 466770
Summary: Scan QR codes
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasma-nm
Version: 5.27.0
Platform: Debian unstable
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
plasma-nm has an option to share wifi connections via a QR code that f.i.
smartphone know how to use. In one of my travels abroad the hotel only had the
password in a QR code you scanned in the lobby, so I could connect my phone but
not my KDE laptop with builtin camera. In the end I figured out that if I used
a generic QR code scanner app for my phone I could show the password and use it
on the laptop.
Since my computer has a camera, maybe it would be useful (although, I admit,
probably a little bit awkward to use) to be able to scan the same QR codes from
plasma-nm. The awkwardness would be drastically reduced if scanning from a
smartphone.
