Is it possible that my iPhone get hacked by a wifi connection?

I was outside my home and i found my mobile connected to other wifi called “OPPO F9” i asked my sister to see if she has her phone connected to the same wifi and it appeared but asked for the password.. but my phone was connected without asking the password.. and the same thing happened last June with the same wifi name oppo f9 but in different place.

It appears that at some time in the past, you connected to this Wi-Fi network with the proper wireless security password ... and why, you are able to continue to do so without having to enter it. On the other hand, your sister did not and the reason she is being asked for the password.


This could be any Wi-Fi network A neighbor's Wi-Fi or a Wi-Fi hotspot.
