yourself in a situation where a friend or colleague comes over, asks to use your wifi, but doesn&#8217;t know the password? Instead of typing out a long and complicated password, did you know that you can easily send the wifi password to another iPhone? In this blog post, we will go over several methods to send your wifi password to another iPhone. <\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Video_Tutorial\"><\/span>Video Tutorial:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p> <\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Challenge_of_How_to_Send_Wifi_Password_to_Another_iPhone\"><\/span>The Challenge of How to Send Wifi Password to Another iPhone<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Sharing wifi passwords can be a hassle, especially when you have a long and complicated password. Instead of verbally telling the password or typing it out, sending it directly can save time and effort. <\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Things_You_Should_Prepare_for\"><\/span>Things You Should Prepare for<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>To successfully send wifi passwords to another iPhone, make sure that both devices are connected to the same wifi network. Additionally, the devices should be updated to iOS 11 or later. <\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Method_1_Via_AirDrop\"><\/span>Method 1: Via AirDrop<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>AirDrop is a feature that allows users to share files between Apple devices quickly. This method uses AirDrop to send the wifi password to another iPhone.<br \/>\n1. Unlock both iPhones and ensure that Bluetooth and Wi-Fi are turned on.<br \/>\n2. Open the Settings app on the iPhone that is already connected to the wifi network.<br \/>\n3. Tap on &#8220;Wi-Fi&#8221; and select the wifi network name.<br \/>\n4. Tap on the blue &#8220;i&#8221; icon next to the wifi network name.<br \/>\n5. On the next screen, tap on &#8220;Share Password.&#8221;<br \/>\n6. AirDrop will open, and you can select the other iPhone&#8217;s name from the AirDrop contacts.<br \/>\n7. On the receiver&#8217;s iPhone, an alert will appear asking if they want to accept the password. Tap &#8220;yes&#8221; to add the password automatically to the wifi settings. <\/p>\n<p>Pros: This method is convenient and fast, as it only takes a few steps to share the wifi password. It doesn&#8217;t require any additional apps or tools.<br \/>\nCons: This method only works if both iPhone devices have iOS 11 or later, and if the devices are near each other, as the maximum distance for AirDrop is 30 feet. <\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Method_2_Via_QR_Code\"><\/span>Method 2: Via QR Code<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>This method uses a QR code to share the wifi password, which can be scanned by the receiver&#8217;s iPhone.<br \/>\n1. Open the Settings app on the iPhone that is already connected to the wifi network.<br \/>\n2. Tap on &#8220;Wi-Fi&#8221; and select the wifi network name.<br \/>\n3. Tap on the blue &#8220;i&#8221; icon next to the wifi network name.<br \/>\n4. Tap on &#8220;Share Password.&#8221;<br \/>\n5. A QR code will appear on the screen.<br \/>\n6. Ask the receiver to open the Camera app on their iPhone and point it at the QR code.<br \/>\n7. A notification will appear on the receiver&#8217;s iPhone for them to join the wifi network, and the password will be automatically filled in. <\/p>\n<p>Pros: This method works even if the receiver is not near the sender&#8217;s iPhone, as long as both devices can see the QR code. It doesn&#8217;t require any additional apps or tools.<br \/>\nCons: Not all iPhones can scan QR codes natively, and the receiver may need to download a QR scanner app if their iPhone doesn&#8217;t have this feature. <\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Method_3_Via_Password_Manager_App\"><\/span>Method 3: Via Password Manager App<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>This method uses a password manager app to share the wifi password.<br \/>\n1. Install a password manager app, such as 1Password or LastPass, on both iPhones.<br \/>\n2. On the iPhone that is already connected to the wifi network, open the password manager app and select the wifi network password.<br \/>\n3. Tap on &#8220;Share&#8221; or &#8220;Send&#8221; and choose the app to share via, such as email or messaging.<br \/>\n4. Open the shared message on the receiver&#8217;s iPhone and tap on the shared link.<br \/>\n5. The password manager app will automatically fill in the wifi password on the receiver&#8217;s iPhone. <\/p>\n<p>Pros: This method is secure, as password manager apps usually have encrypted databases to store passwords. It also allows users to share the password even if the devices aren&#8217;t near each other.<br \/>\nCons: This method requires users to download and install a password manager app and set it up. <\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_Cant_I_Send_Wifi_Password_to_Another_iPhone\"><\/span>Why Can&#8217;t I Send Wifi Password to Another iPhone?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Some reasons why you may not be able to send the wifi password to another iPhone include:<br \/>\n1. The sender or receiver&#8217;s iPhone isn&#8217;t updated to iOS 11 or later.<br \/>\nFix: Update the iPhone&#8217;s software to the latest version.<br \/>\n2. Both devices aren&#8217;t connected to the same wifi network.<br \/>\nFix: Connect both iPhones to the same wifi network.<br \/>\n3. AirDrop is turned off on either device.<br \/>\nFix: Turn on AirDrop in the Control Center or Settings app.<br \/>\n4. The QR code is not being scanned correctly.<br \/>\nFix: Make sure that both devices can see the QR code clearly, and the receiver&#8217;s iPhone camera is positioned correctly. <\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Additional_Tips\"><\/span>Additional Tips<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>&#8211; Remember to keep your wifi password secure and not share it with unknown or unauthorized users.<br \/>\n&#8211; If you&#8217;re unable to send the wifi password via these methods, try typing it out manually or verbally telling the password. <\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_FAQs_about_Sending_Wifi_Password_to_Another_iPhone\"><\/span>5 FAQs about Sending Wifi Password to Another iPhone<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<h4>Q1: What if my iPhone doesn&#8217;t have iOS 11 or later?<\/h4>\n<p>A: Unfortunately, these methods only work on iPhones with iOS 11 or later.
