Yeah it’s so cumbersome, especially if you forget data being on.
At least you can bookmark the second QR code because it’s always the same IP address. So once you’re connected you can just directly navigate to 192.168.0.1/index.html and you’re in.
Honestly, it’s easier for me to just double-tap the power button to open the camera and scan the QR code than to have to open my bookmarks.
And I don’t mind that the SSID for the wifi changes every time. Again, it’s simply faster to turn off data and scan the QR code than it is to force my phone to connect to a network that isn’t connected to the internet.
Yeah, there’s more convenient ways this could’ve been done, but it’s not a horrible design.
Edit: fixed a typo (“eventually time” -> “every time”)

You have to connect to the network in order to transfer anything, so what do you mean? I’m talking the second QR code that’s simply a link to the IP address I linked. I can just open my browser (after being connected to the Switch’s WiFi) and type a 1 to let it autofill to skip scanning it at all.
With the second paragraph, I was mainly referring to your first comment about it being cumbersome (sorry for doing that out of order), which I took to be referring to the whole process. I probably could’ve phrased that a lot better.
