How to turn off alert asking if i want to share the Wi-Fi password on my iPhone? My house wifi was temporarily down. Ever since it's been back, my phone asks if i want to share the wi-fi password with that network. It is driving me crazy. I don't understand any of the offered solutions. None of my household can help. It's annoying but what's worse is that when I am teaching online, and the prompt comes up, my screen freezes until I tell it to go away. This means fiddling with my tripod and disrupting my class. Can anyone help? Explain it to me like you're talking to a five year old....please. [Re-titled by Moderator]

This happens when...

On both devices, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth are turned on without Personal Hotspot on,
The other person's device is nearby, within Bluetooth and Wi-Fi range.
