How to find WiFi passwords stored in an android phone


How to find wifi passwords stored in an android phone

Once you entered a password for a wifi network it will remain stored in your android phone till you changed it or the owner of the access point changed it. You can simply retrieve that stored password in android if you know where to look.

Open your file explorer (Not the inbuilt one, the one which has root access Eg : Esexplorer)

1. Go to the root folder by selecting device (/)
2. Navigate through root/data/misc/wifi/
3. There you can see a couple of files and folders among them there is wpa_supplicant.conf file.


4. Open the file carefully with a text editor and voila see the list of access points and their passwords saved in that file (Do not attempt to change or delete any entries from any of the files/Folders)

Therefore you can simply extract any older entries from the corresponding list.
