There’s now an easier way to Share WiFi Password on Android

In this guide, we will show you the shortest and easiest way to share your WiFi password from your Android device. You might have stumbled upon this situation wherein someone asked for your WiFi password but you cannot spell it out loud in the open for others to listen. Even if you could, then we are pretty sure that your password would already have a mix of various alphanumeric characters, which could prove to be quite a challenging situation, not just for you to spell it out but even for the recipient to type it in!

Well, to counter all these scenarios, Android has a built-in feature through which you can easily share the WiFi Password via a QR Code. The recipient just needs to scan this code and their device will be connected to this network. Since most of the camera apps now support QR Code scanning functionality by default or have Google Lens embedded, it makes the process even easier.

Talking about things getting easier, Google has further simplified the process of accessing this WiFi Sharing page from your Android device. Earlier, you needed to head over to Settings > Network and Internet > Internet > select your WiFi > tap on Share. But now, you could directly cut down to the chase and get this job done in just a couple of taps. Here’s how.
