Problem

I always take my M5StickC with myself, so I have different WiFi networks around.

For example:

  1. At home - I have WiFi router and my home network.
  2. Outside - I share WiFi from my smartphone.
  3. At work - I use office internal network.
  4. At summerhouse - I have there own home network.
  5. At John's house - My friend John Smith have own WiFi too.
  6. etc. (we can continue that list infinitely)

And in current state it is painful always change credentials.

Solution

There should be feature to save credentials for multiple WiFi networks, like address book. also It will be cool also make them labeled.

And maybe store them in config in a way like:

  "wifi": [
    {
      "menuName": "home net",
      "creds": {
        "ssid": "Motherland"
        "pwd": "pass1234",
      }
    },
    {
      "menuName": "my phone",
      "creds": {
        "ssid": "Winterland AP"
        "pwd": "d3adb33f",
      }
    },
    {
      "menuName": "work net",
      "creds": {
        "ssid": "Wonderland Inc."
        "pwd": "12345678",
      }
    }
  ]

Seems we need something like "Connections" screen to manage this list. To be able connect to network, add new ones or remove added previously. It also would be cool to have "Share" option for any known WiFi network, same as it done on smartphones. That simply display QR code on screen.

Sure I know about "Others -> QR Code"... But it just has own list that has to be edited separately. That is not really usable at current state.
