Hi billfromsanta rosa,


Thanks for reaching out in Apple Support Communities. I understand you're trying to view saved Wi-Fi network passwords from your iCloud Keychain Website & App Passwords data. I know it's important to know how this information is stored; I'd like to help. Passwords that you enter for use with Wi-Fi networks can be remembered by your device, but it's not possible to see the passwords stored for each network. The information you're seeing in for AutoFill information is for website and app passwords only:

If you want to view the passwords stored in iCloud Keychain

On your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 11 or later:

  1. Tap Settings > Accounts & Passwords > App & Website Passwords.
  2. Use Touch ID when you're prompted.
  3. Tap a website to view your password.

On your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 10.3 or earlier:

  1. Tap Settings > Safari > Passwords.
  2. Use Touch ID or enter your device passcode.
  3. Tap a website to view your password.
