Yes, you can with the help of your contacts! Here's How:


Certain WiFi networks allow the password to be shared wirelessly. If you go to settings>wifi and try to connect to a nearby wifi network, if there's someone nearby on their phone, they will get a popup asking if they'd like to share the wifi password with you.


NOTE: You and the other person have to have each other in your contacts and that person has to be connected to the network you are trying to connect to.
