TLDR;

Parking here an idea about creating a temporary QR-code based Wi-Fi sharing feature.

Usecase:

I often run out of my mobile data and forget to recharge, and people don’t share their network over hotspot fearing their data would drain and it is hassle to change password in such cases.

This case be solved using a short lived network sharing.

How this’ll work

• Request a person for wifi, donor would use the short-live wifi sharing feature
• A QR code will be generated with temporary password in donor device, requester will scan and connect to that connection
• Limit on time and data usage can be set, after which the connection will automatically close.

I looked but don’t think there’s any such thing provided by Android itself. And probably there’s no way to feature request to Google as well.

Parking it here in case somebody can forward to Google.
