Preheat the air fryer to 400°F.
Pat the chicken wings completely dry with paper towels.
Toss wings with salt, garlic powder, paprika, and black pepper.
Arrange wings in a single layer in the air fryer basket.
Cook 20–25 minutes, turning halfway, until the skin is browned and crispy.
Whisk melted butter, hot sauce, and garlic powder in a large bowl.
Transfer hot wings into the bowl and toss until evenly coated.
Serve immediately.
