Samsung WiFi QR code scan
Current Samsung support documents QR scanning through the Camera app and Quick settings, plus a WiFi QR icon for joining networks. Samsung also documents displaying a QR from the currently connected WiFi network for sharing.
Use the receiving path when someone else already has the code, and the connected-network path when your Galaxy is the device sharing access.
