Hello,

So yes, I have Personal Hotspot on my iPhone with Verizon but I am currently at a Church and my iPhone is connected to the Church's WiFi from when I first visited this church about a year ago. I'm here at the Church 3 hours early and I brought my Mac so am wanting to connect my Mac to the Church's WiFi and would rather do that than use the Personal hotspot feature on my iPhone since it'll slowly kill the phone's battery and there's no outlet out here. I'm currently parked in my car right next to the church.

Look under passwords and accounts on your phone. The church password will be found there.

Unfortunately, WiFi passwords are not stored there.

If you have iCloud Keychain enabled, the password should automatically sync to your Mac. You may also be able to share the password automatically to your Mac just by selecting the WiFi network, thus triggering a prompt on your phone to share the wifi network password. If that doesn’t work you could turn on iCloud Keychain on both devices and temporarily tether your Mac to your phone’s hotspot to let the devices sync.
