It’s relatively easy to see WiFi network passwords on Android. Before Android 10, the only way to view the passwords of all saved WiFi networks was to install WiFi password viewer applications, but with Android 10, you have a native option to check the passwords.

If your smartphone runs on Android 10 or above, you don’t need to install any third-party app or view the hidden files to check the passwords of the WiFi network you’re currently connected to.

Find Connected WiFi Password on Android

On Android 10 and above, you can view the connected WiFi password. Here’s how to utilize it.

1. Open your Android app drawer and tap on the Settings app.

2. On Settings, tap on the WiFi option.

3. Now, you will see the WiFi network you’re currently connected to, along with the available networks.

4. To see the connected WiFi password, tap on the WiFi network.

5. On the WiFi network detail screen, tap the Share button. If the share button is unavailable, tap the WiFi QR Code option.

6. You will be asked to enter your PIN/Password/Fingerprint if you have security set up. Once done, you will see a pop-up showing you a QR code.

7. You will find your password below the WiFi network name. You can also scan this QR code to connect directly to the WiFi network.

Note: The options may vary depending on the smartphone brand. The feature resides on the WiFi settings page in most smartphones running on Android 10 or above. So, if you can’t find the option, explore the WiFi settings page.
