Click the share button on the home page or the "Share" in the camera settings to enter the sharing page, and then click "Invite" to generate a QR code. Your friends can now get some of the access rights by scanning the QR code in your phone.

2. Q: Why doesn't the Wi-Fi name appear when I connect to Wi-Fi?
