How to See Passwords for Wi-Fi Networks Connected Your Android Device

August 30, 2020 by AndroM

Over the course of owning your Android device, you’ve probably connected to dozens of Wi-Fi networks. School, home, work, the gym, your friends’ and family’s houses, coffee shops — each time you typed in one of these Wi-Fi passwords, your Android device saved it for safekeeping and easy access in the future.

How to See Passwords for Wi-Fi Networks Connected Your Android Device

The trouble comes when you want to actually see the password for one of the networks you connected to. Perhaps you want to connect a second device to a saved Wi-Fi access point, or maybe you’re with a friend who wants to log in to the same hotspot. But without a way to access the actual passwords that your device has stored, you’re out of luck.

Thankfully, there are ways around this. If you’re on Android 10 or higher, you can see Wi-Fi passwords right from your phone’s settings. However, if you’re on Android 9.0 Pie or lower, note that you will need to be rooted.

How to see Passwords on Android 10 & Up

This first method doesn’t require root or even an extra app. But it does require that your phone is running Android 10 or higher. If your phone has been updated to this version, I’ll outline a quick and easy way to see saved Wi-Fi passwords below. If not, you can jump ahead to Method 2.

1. Locate Wi-Fi Settings

Currently, there is only one flavor of Android 10, and that’s the “Stock Android” version directly from Google. However, in the near future, manufacturers like Samsung will put their own spin on Android 10 by applying an OEM skin such as One UI, which means the settings menus could be a little different on your phone.

So first, search your phone’s Settings menu for the “Wi-Fi” submenu. On Stock Android, that’s located in Settings –> Network & internet. Once you’ve found the Wi-Fi settings menu, go ahead and select it.

2. View Wi-Fi Passwords

One inside the Wi-Fi settings page, scroll past the list of available networks and select the “Saved networks” option. From there, you’ll see a list of all the Wi-Fi networks your phone remembers. Select one.

Now, choose the “Share” option towards the top of the screen. You’ll be asked to scan your fingerprint or face or enter your PIN or password. Upon doing so, you’ll see a QR code with that represents the network’s SSID and password. You could scan this with another device using a QR scanner if you wanted, but the password is also listed in plain text beneath the QR code, so you can copy it from there.

How to see Passwords on Android 9 & Lower (Root Required)

If your phone is running Android 9.0 Pie or lower, the only way to view saved Wi-Fi passwords is with a root app. This will work best if you have TWRP installed and used that to install Magisk for root.

1. Install WiFi Password Viewer

There are several apps that claim to be able to show your Wi-Fi passwords on the Play Store, but the only one we found to work on all of our devices was WiFi Password Viewer by SimoneDev.

2. View Saved Wi-Fi Passwords

When you first launch WiFi Password Viewer, the app will ask for Superuser access. Tap “Grant” on the popup, then you’ll be taken to a list containing all of the Wi-Fi networks that you’ve ever connected to, where each entry shows a password beneath it.

If you’ve connected to many different Wi-Fi networks over the course of owning your Android device, your list may be quite long. If that’s the case, you can search for a particular Wi-Fi network by using the search button in the top-right corner.

3. Share Saved Wi-Fi Passwords

If you need to share one of these passwords with another device, you have a few options. Start by tapping any entry in the list, then a small menu will pop up. From here, you can either tap “Copy password” to copy that network’s password to your clipboard, which would make it easy to paste into your favorite texting app and send to the other device. Or, you could skip a step and tap “Share,” then select your favorite texting app from the menu that appears to send the password.

Finally, you could also tap “QR” to make the app generate a QR code containing the network info. If the other device is a Pixel or iPhone, you can simply open the camera app, point it at the QR code, then tap the popup prompt to automatically connect it to the Wi-Fi network.
