WiFi password sharing not working between Apple devices
WiFi password sharing works only between Apple devices that are signed into the same iCloud account. Make sure both devices are using the same Apple ID and Bluetooth is on. If password sharing still doesn't work, the feature may have been restricted.
Apple's WiFi password sharing feature automatically shares your saved WiFi password to other Apple devices signed into your iCloud account. It requires the same Apple ID on both devices, Bluetooth turned on, and your devices to be close together. If it's not working, one device is using a different Apple ID or Bluetooth is off.
Fix-IT-Bot will walk you through each step — just tap, no typing needed.
