Step 1. Install and launch the application.
Step 2. If necessary, provide a superuser program to press the appropriate button for approximately 30 seconds to press the corresponding button. In our case, the rights were provided by the SuperUser utility automatically.
Step 3. Check out the list of Wi-Fi networks. Find here an SSID with the name of your home network - the password will be specified in the column " PSK".
If you are connected to a huge number of networks, you can use the search string at the very top.
