Interesting question.
Login with what?
The browser interface will certainly show the passwords. That's the idea really. The way to handle that is to use a secure password that means that people cannot login without that password.
Does the desktop genie show the wifi passwords automatically? Doesn't it also require a password? Similarly the Android app.
I ask these questions because some models seem to be better at hiding passwords than others.
If your concern is being caught on CCTV, you'll have to take special measures. Like not going to those pages in public.
