You don't even have to learn your own password.

. Your phone will ask you to verify your identity with a biometric or a passcode, and once you provide it, it’ll generate a QR code with your home network’s info.If your guests are Android users, you can share the info via Nearby, Google’s version of Apple’s AirDrop. To do this, tap the Nearby button below the QR code and wait until your device finds your guests so they can hop online.

Then make sure the device sharing the password is unlocked, have your friend tap the network, and a prompt should appear on your phone. Tap. You’ll need to be somewhat near their device, and in my experience the process can be a little finicky, but it’s something to consider. If the prompt doesn’t come up, you can point them to the QR code instead.

And sure, each of these tips requires some minimal hoop-jumping, but it’s a heck of a lot easier than trying to dictate a password like “dD^#i16HJ9vD” to someone while they fumble with the password field.
