Is Wi-Fi password visibility disabled in iOS 17 Update?
Since updating to iOS17 I am no longer able to view the wifi password for a network that I am currently connected to. Is there a reason for that?

Since updating there is no longer a Password section in the information for the Wifi
Go to -> Settings -> tap Wi-Fi -> tap the i -> then scroll to & tap Password -> enter your Passcode -> you will then see the Wi-Fi Password.
I don’t have the password as it was shared with me. So I cannot type it manually. I need it for another device… frustrated

Did you read the OP and see the picture at the start of the thread? This thread is exactly because they are not there in OS17
I took this photo from my iPhone which is on iOS 17.3. NOT iOS 17. I just want to make sure we are all on the same iOS in this discussion.
Nicole, if you know the password to the WiFi network you are currently on, can you try forgetting that network and then re-joining by typing the password?
I found that most of my networks I have joined by sharing passwords. I just did these steps for my home network and now I can see the password.
The information page from following those instructions is what I shared a screenshot of, I used to be able to do exactly what you said to find the password and can no longer since updating my phone.
Tap ❮ Wi-Fi.
Then as posted:

Based on your screenshot, you're one screen too far.
I’ve done all available updates and I still cannot see the wifi passwords. My only available updates are to 17.2.1
maybe because I’m in Canada? I don’t have access to 17.3 yet
THANK YOU GZ49! That trick works and is the only answer that solved the challenge 🙌🙌🙌🙏🙏
And as per the other participants - yes, Apple please fix this bug!
THIS WORKS!
DELETE THE WI-FI AND RECONNECT MANUALLY ENTERING THE PASSWORD AND IT IS VISIBLE!!
I’m also experiencing this problem
THANKY YOU!!!
I tried that and it didn’t work for me 🥲
If you happen to know the password that is all good. In my case it was shared with me, so I don’t know it.
I don’t remember the password! That’s the problem, I was always able to just copy/paste it
