      Long press the wifi icon>goto saved networks>tap the preferred wifi network name>tap share

      There, under the QR code u could find the network password.

      The above steps are for vanilla android system, the steps will change depending on the android skin you got.

      This only works on computers. Is you use a Mac, there not need to do that so macOs & iOs sync password between device with the same apple id!

    You should have mentioned that this works on WLAN with personal authentication. Those with enterprise don’t show the passcode

    I already knew how to find it on my PC. How do I find it if it’s on my phone? That’s the tricky one.

    Damn shows the simplicity of Mac OS and yes this is the same basically for iPhone/iPad, good to know on Windows though, didn’t realize the OS didn’t have a keychain, great video though

    Great information.
    Please note, won’t work with enterprise or if you have your wi-fi adapter disabled in windows.

    So is this video about how to find network passwords you’ve accessed or how apple has a better security system than windows. …Through social engineering someone can gain access to all your “hotspot gadgets” then follow you around campus and link up to you personal wifi/mifi hotspots if you use a windows laptop. I say this because I know a lot of people that use their smartphone to make their own hotspots on campus.
