I mean, yes, but I was rather wondering, if that extra space was maybe why it couldn't find it. Maybe you had to manually enter the SSID and accidentally put in that extra space? Then again, I don't even know, if you took that photo...
No something I randomly saw on the internet
I had a IoT device "lightbulb" that would trim any spaces left after the passkey, problem being I intentionally had a blank space at the end of my passkey. Took a while to realize till I counted the little stars hiding the recorded passkey.
Nothing grinds my gears like password interfaces that modify the password. If empty spaces at the beginning/end are an issue, tell the user. Show a note, or at worst a modal. But don't modify it.
