I was given a wifi extender recently, I can't get the password when trying to it set up, i already factory reset. and used the app...and maybe it's a glitch but It wouldn't copy the password on my app...

Which one?
ac1900 is not a reliable guide to model number. Many devices come with an AC tag, but it is essentially a label that Netgear, and other brands, attach to hardware to describe wifi speeds.
Look at the label on the device for the model number.
That should also have the default WiFi passwords.
