How to Share Your Wi-Fi Password on iPhone or iPad

Apple has shared a new video on its YouTube support channel detailing how you can share your Wi-Fi password with a friend directly from your iPhone or iPad, without having to remember the password or saying it out loud.

Share your Wi-Fi password.

Before you begin, make sure both devices have the latest version of iOS or iPadOS. On both devices, turn on Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. If either device has Personal Hotspot on, turn it off. Keep the other person’s device nearby, within Bluetooth and Wi-Fi range.

To share your Wi-Fi password:

  1. Make sure that your device (the one sharing the password) is unlocked and connected to the Wi-Fi network.
  2. Select the Wi-Fi network on the device you want to connect.
  3. On your device, tap Share Password, then tap Done.

If you don’t see the Wi-Fi password sharing animation, restart both devices and try again. In case you still can’t share your Wi-Fi password, have the other person enter the password manually.
