Have you ever connected your iPhone to a Wi-Fi network and forgot the password? Or maybe you want to share the password with a friend who also has an iPhone. Whatever the reason may be, it can be frustrating not to be able to see the Wi-Fi password on your iPhone. In this article, we will show you two methods on how to retrieve Wi-Fi passwords on your iPhone, with or without jailbreaking your device.
Method 1: Retrieving Wi-Fi Passwords on Jailbroken iPhone
If you have a jailbroken iPhone, you can easily retrieve the Wi-Fi passwords of all the networks you have connected to. Here are the steps to follow:
1. Open Cydia on your iPhone.
2. Search for a tweak called “Wi-Fi Passwords” and install it.
3. Once installed, open the app.
4. The app will show you all the saved Wi-Fi passwords that you have previously connected to on your iPhone.
5. You can now use these passwords to connect to the Wi-Fi networks.
Method 2: Retrieving Wi-Fi Passwords on Non-Jailbroken iPhone
If you do not have a jailbroken iPhone, you can still retrieve Wi-Fi passwords with the help of a computer. Here are the steps to follow:
1. Download a tool called “4uKey Password Manager” on your Windows or Mac computer.
2. Connect your iPhone to the computer using a USB cable.
3. Open “4uKey Password Manager” and click on “Start Scan” to scan the data on your iPhone.
4. Enter your iPhone passcode to give the tool permission to scan your sensitive data.
5. Once the scan is complete, the tool will show you all the saved Wi-Fi passwords, screen time passcodes, and your Apple ID account kept on your device.
6. Keep in mind that the tool will not show you the Apple ID password.
7. You can now use these passwords to connect to Wi-Fi networks on your iPhone.
It is important to note that the tool for retrieving Wi-Fi passwords on non-jailbroken iPhones will not upload or use your scanned passwords or any other sensitive information. The scan results will only be saved on your local computer.
In conclusion, these two methods will help you retrieve Wi-Fi passwords on your iPhone, whether it is jailbroken or not. Just make sure to use them responsibly and do not share the passwords with anyone without permission.
