How to View Saved Wi-Fi Passwords: All the Tricks and Hacks You Need to Know

Are you connected to Wi-Fi on one device, but need the password to log in on another? Here's how to find Wi-Fi passwords in Windows, macOS, iOS, and Android.

Struggling to connect to Wi-Fi? Maybe your laptop is connected but your phone is not, or you need to share your network with a guest but can't remember the password. There are ways to wirelessly share passwords between devices, but that's not always an option.

Below, we'll outline how to grab a Wi-Fi password from already-connected devices by viewing it as plain text. This way you don't need to reset the network security, or hack the Wi-Fi network, and everyone can get online.

Windows makes this easy, as long as you're currently connected to the network in question. Open Settings > Network & Internet, then click the Change Adapter Options button (in Windows 10) or Advanced network settings > More network adapter options in Windows 11).

Right-click on your computer's Wi-Fi adapter in the list and choose Status > Wireless Properties. Open the Security tab, and you should see a password box with dots in it—click the Show Characters box to see the password appear in plain text.

If you're trying to view the password for a network you aren't currently connected to, things are a tad more complicated. You can download a third-party app like Magical JellyBean WiFi Password Revealer, which will show you the passwords of all saved networks.

If you prefer not to install extra software, you can find the password from the Windows Command Prompt. Open the Start Menu, search for Command Prompt, right-click the app and select Run As Administrator. Then run the following command to see a list of saved Wi-Fi networks:

    netsh wlan show profile

Pick the network you want from the list, then run another command (replacing MyNetwork with the name of the network in question):

    netsh wlan show profile MyNetwork key=clear

You will be presented with a lot of information about the network, most of which you can ignore. Look for the section titled Security Settings; the entry marked as Key Content is the password.

Apple's macOS stores Wi-Fi passwords in its keychain, which you can view by opening Launchpad > Other > Keychain Access. More directly, you can press Command + Space to open Spotlight, then search for "keychain access," and open the app.

Use the search bar in the Keychain Access app to search for the name of any Wi-Fi network you have connected to in the past. When you see the network in the list, double-click on it to see its password entry. Check the Show Password box along the bottom, then enter your Mac's password, to see the password in plain text.

How to View a Wi-Fi Password on iPhone

iPhone users were unable to view Wi-Fi passwords as plain text until iOS 16. Open Settings > Wi-Fi, then tap the i icon for the current network. Select the Password entry and verify your identity with Face ID, Touch ID, or a passcode. You can then tap the visible password and copy it

For those who are stuck on an older operating system, you can sync your iPhone's Wi-Fi passwords with your iCloud Keychain, then turn to the Keychain Access app on your Mac, as detailed in the section above. This method should work, even if you have never connected to that network from the Mac.

It's far less common than it once was, but your only other option would be to jailbreak your iPhone. You can turn to Cydia—an App Store for jailbroken phones—and search for WiFi Passwords. This tool will reveal those passwords for you. It may or may not work, depending on the version of your jailbroken software (these things are always in flux). If you can't get it working, there are a number of other similar apps in Cydia that are worth trying.

How to View a Wi-Fi Password on Android

For Android users, your options for viewing and sharing Wi-Fi passwords will come down to the manufacturer of the device. Anyone who is running Android 10 or higher can easily share a Wi-Fi password with others through a QR code. However, Samsung devices do not list the password in plain text.

On a Pixel phone, you can open your Wi-Fi settings and select the network in question. Tap the Share button to view a QR code that can be used to wirelessly share a Wi-Fi connection. The password will be written out underneath the code.

Without Android 10, you can't see a network's password unless your phone is rooted. If yours is, a root-friendly file explorer like Solid Explorer can help you find the password. Just navigate to /data/misc/wifi and open the wpa_supplicant.conf file. Within that document, you should be able to find the network's name and password. Note that effectiveness of this method may vary by device, since some may encrypt the passwords within wpa_supplicant.conf.

View a Wi-Fi Password on a Router's Admin Page

If you've read this far and you're still without a password, you have one other (slightly shady) option: Check the Wi-Fi router's administrative tools. If you view the Wi-Fi network's information on your device—for example, clicking the "i" next to the Wi-Fi name on iOS' settings—you'll be able to see the router's IP address, usually something like 192.168.0.1.

Type that number into the address bar of your browser, and use a site like routerpasswords.com to see if the default username and password for that model router gains you access to its settings page. (If you don't know the model number, it may be on the login page, or you can find it printed on the router itself.) Find the Wi-Fi section in the settings, and you might be able to view the network's password.

If the network's owner has changed the administrative password to their router—which everyone should do for security reasons—you won't be able to do this, and if you don't have their permission, it's generally not a good idea to go rooting around someone else's router settings.
