Do you stutter every time a visitor asks for your WiFi password because either it is too complicated to have it on the top of your tongue or because you simply do not wish to share for security reasons? Whatever the reason may be, sharing your WiFi password safely and carefully is essential. If you are an iPhone user and the device you wish to share your WiFi password with is also an iOS device, then Apple has a secure way for you. Now you can share your Wi-Fi password from iPhone to iPhone without actually sharing the password or having it manually entered on the other iPhone. Follow the below step-to-step guide on how to share a WiFi password from iPhone. Step 1. First of all, you must ensure that both iOS devices are running on the updated iOS version.

Secondly, both WiFi and Bluetooth need to be turned on in both devices for the feature to work smoothly. Step 3. If the Apple IDs of both devices are different then you need to connect and add the other device’s Apple ID to your contact list. If the Apple ID of both devices is the same then there would not be any problem. Step 4. Similar to how Bluetooth connection works entirely on the basis of the proximity of both devices, here too you will have to keep both iPhones close for utilising the feature.
