How To See Passwords For Wi-fi Networks You've Connected To Your Android Device. by Good2love(m): 3:01pm On Nov 24, 2015
An Android developer Alexandros Schillings chose to solve this issue with an application that permits you to see each Wi-Fi passwords that you've ever saved on your Android device. The application requires root access (your android device should have been rooted), yet past that, it makes discovering and sharing your saved or stored Wi-Fi passwords simple and easy.





Step 1: Install WiFi Key Recovery

Alexandros Schillings' application is called WiFi Key Recovery, and it's accessible on the Google Play Store for free of charge. Search the application by name and get it installed on your rooted Android device, or you can click on the link below to go directly to the download page

Step 2: Viewing Saved Wi-Fi Passwords

After downloading the app and then installing on your device, Launch it and the application will request Superuser access or root access. Tap "Grant" , then you'll be taken to a drop down list containing all the Wi-Fi networks that you've ever connected to your android device, where every passage demonstrates a password in the "PSK" field.





On the off chance that you've connected your android device to a large number of Wi-Fi network, your drop down list may be entirely long. If that is the situation, you can hunt down a specific Wi-Fi network by utilizing the "SSID Quicksearch" field.





Step 3: Sharing Wi-Fi Passwords

If you need to share one of these passwords with another device, you have a few options to choose from. Start by tapping any entry in the list, then a small menu will pop up. This allows you to use Android's built-in sharing system to send either just the password, or the entire entry. There's also an option for sharing via QR code, but that requires that you install an additional app.







If you'd like to store this entire list for safekeeping, tap your Android device's hardware menu button (or the three-dot menu button in your software navigation bar). From here, choose "Export" to generate a text file with all of this information.






From here, you can use Android's share menu to send this file to another device, or you can simply tap "To SD" if you'd rather save a copy of this text file to your device's storage partition or your SD card.
