Can I connect to a new network without using a serial connection?

Hello. I'm designing a product with an embedded ESP8266. Customers would need to connect this ESP8266 to their wifi network, which is likely password-protected. I'm wondering if there is any way for them to get their network name and password into the ESP8266 without having to physically plug into it.

For instance, the customer would turn on the power to the product, open a mobile app for pairing the ESP8266 with a network, and then they enter their network name and password, and the ESP8266 connects to that network.

Hi, start your application in AP mode, after your client enters your network and password change to STA mode, restart it and ready
