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?

My iPhone is on iOS 17.3. I can see my password by selecting Settings > WiFi then tapping the "i" to the right of that name. Your password will show up as a series of dots.
Tap those dots, and your password will appear. Please note: I am not on iOS 17. I am updated to 17.3. Please try updating your iPhone by selecting Settings > General > Software Update. Follow the prompts to update. Once done, try looking for the password using my steps again.
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
I need more space
I do not think that is a bug, but security. When you have a shared password, you cannot pass it on to others. That would make sense. I would even disable that password after some hours or a day.
Why would you without asking them?
Same here... I can no longer view my password from the WiFi Settings info button. WTF Apple?
Nope — didn’t work for me.
I remember not so long ago when we could when we could "tap on the password field" to see our wifi password. Those were the good old days.
Hack wifi password
This worked for me! Thanks!
I’m experiencing the exact same. I can no longer see wifi password after update to iOS 17.6.1.
That worked. Thanks!
Thanks for the condescending and (shocker) unhelpful mansplain.
This worked for me
Is Wi-Fi password visibility disabled in iOS 17 Update?
