Frequently asked questions
Can I see the password of a network I never joined?
No. Your iPhone only stores passwords for networks you have connected to. Ask the network owner or check the sticker on the router.
How do I share my Wi-Fi password with another iPhone?
Unlock your iPhone and keep it near theirs while they select your network. Tap Share Password on your screen when it appears. You need each other in Contacts.
