How to Know the Password of Connected Wi-Fi on Android?

Published in Technology 2 mins read

You can't directly see the password of a connected Wi-Fi network on your Android device. However, you can retrieve the password if you have previously connected to the network and saved the credentials. Here's how:

1. Using the Settings App:

  1. Open the Settings app on your Android device.
  2. Tap on Wi-Fi.
  3. Long-press the name of the connected Wi-Fi network.
  4. Select "Share" or "Forget Network".
  5. If you choose "Share", you can share the network password with other devices or copy it to your clipboard.
  6. If you choose "Forget Network", you will need to re-enter the password when you reconnect to the network.

2. Using Third-Party Apps:

While there are apps claiming to show Wi-Fi passwords, they are often unreliable and potentially unsafe. It's best to avoid such apps as they may contain malware or compromise your device's security.

3. Checking Your Router's Settings:

If you have access to your router's settings, you can find the Wi-Fi password there. The process for accessing router settings varies depending on the router model. You can usually find the password on the sticker attached to the router or in the user manual.

Note: These methods only work if you have previously saved the Wi-Fi password on your device or have access to your router's settings.
