San Francisco: Tech giant Apple's newly previewed iOS 16 lets users see their WiFi network password. According to MacRumors, the iOS 16 developer preview includes an option to view a WiFi password and even copy it to share with friends or family. Apple iOS 16, iPadOS 16, macOS Ventura & WatchOS 9 Announced; Check Availability Here.

The feature was not available in iOS 15. As per the report, when users open the WiFi section in the Settings section and then tap on the network they are connected to, there's a new 'Password' option. Tapping it shows them the password of that WiFi network.

Users need to authenticate with Face ID, Touch ID, or passcode to see a stored password. The report mentioned that it is a handy feature if users need to share a password with someone else or if they want to connect to a non-Apple device where sharing is not automatically available.
