Check the saved Wi‑Fi password on a device already connected

If you’re unsure of the correct Wi‑Fi password, you can often view it on a device that’s already connected to the network.
Note: This requires access to the unlocked device—Wi‑Fi passwords are protected and won’t be visible otherwise.

iPhone (iOS 16 or later)

Go to Settings > Wi‑Fi, tap the network name, then tap Password and authenticate to reveal it. 

Android (10 or later)

Go to Settings > Network & Internet > Wi‑Fi, tap the network, then select Share to view a QR code and password after unlocking the device.
Note: The Bose speaker cannot use the QR code to connect, you will need the password provided in plain-text.

 

 

In the computer network settings, see if there is an option to display the Wi-Fi network password.

Look for the password in the router documentation.

The network password may be noted in the router owner's guide, setup guide or another document provided by your Internet service provider.

Determine if the password for the network is listed on the back or underside of the router.

The manufacturer of the router may have printed a default password on its product label. If the default settings of the router were never changed, this password should allow access to its wireless network.

Contact the person who set up the router or configured the home network.

The person who set up the router and/or network may know the network password or where to find it. Another member of the household may also know this information, as well.

Contact the internet service provider.

If the wireless router was included as part of the internet service installation, please contact your service provider for information on how to obtain the password and/or restore the default password.
