How can we back up & restore our Wi-Fi settings from one phone to

You can view or share wifi password as QR on a per-SSID basis from
settings/network&internet/internet/[particularSSID]/gear icon/share icon

 
But not on Samsung Android 7.

On this Samsung, Android 13, I can share a QR code for a
 connection - it's at the bottom of the screen in
 settings,wifi,ssid,cog-icon. I pointed an iPhone at it and it
 asked if I wanted to join that network.

A barcode scanner tells me the  QR code contains
WIFI:S:<ssid>;T:WPA;P:<password>;H:false;;

I don't think I can do that for stored network connections that
 are not visible now, which would be useful. I could scan the ones
 I want to backup and export the scanner history.
