I have find out a simple way by which you can find saves wifi password but for this way your device should be root access. and if your device is not have permission for root access them first you need to get it, you can get root access easily and for that you can get many information in internet.


first of all you will need a file explorer which can open root directory of your storage. After that you need to
  • Navigate to the root directory /data/misc/wifi. If your file explorer opens the SD card (/mnt/sdcard) directory by default, press back twice to open the root directory, then navigate to the mentioned path.
  • Open the document wpa_supplicant.conf. If you’re using Root Explorer, there are two ways to open the above file one is to simple tap and open and second option is tap and holt to a time till some options do not open and then select any other file opener like html or any web browser which are persent in that options list.
  • From within said file, you can view all your saved Wi-Fi access points along with their passwords. Look under the SSID (Access Point Name) of the Wi-Fi network whose password you need to view. The password is written within quotes in the line that says psk=”password” .  In the below images you can see that how password is seen.
