STOP the password sharing POP UP

My iPhone and iPad are constantly asking if people near by on the network if they would like to share the Wi-Fi password with me. I am already on the network and this only started recently...


Please assist?

iPhone 6, iOS 12

Please do not share your Apple ID with anyone unless you can trust them blindly.


Before you begin to share the following conditions must be met.

  • On both devices, turn on Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. If either device has Personal Hotspot on, turn it off.
  • Make sure your Apple ID is added to the other person's Contacts app.
  • Keep the other person's device nearby, within Bluetooth and Wi-Fi range.
  • Make sure both devices have the latest version of iOS or iPadOS, or macOS High Sierra or later.


Turn off either Wi-Fi or Bluetooth.
