Where Does Apple Airport Store WiFi Password?
Many users wonder where Apple Airport stores their WiFi passwords. Apple Airport, or more specifically, AirPort Utility, stores WiFi passwords in the Keychain Access app on Mac devices. When you connect to a WiFi network using an Apple Airport device, the password is saved in the Keychain, which is a secure storage system for passwords and other sensitive information on Apple devices.
To view a WiFi password stored in the Keychain on a Mac:
- Go to Applications > Utilities > Keychain Access.
- In the search bar, type the name of the WiFi network.
- Double-click the WiFi network name in the search results.
- Check the 'Show password' box and enter your Mac’s login password to reveal the WiFi password.
It is important to note that while the WiFi password is securely stored in the Keychain, it is always recommended to use strong, unique passwords for your WiFi networks to enhance security.
