Q: Why cant my ipad auto-connect to my phone hotspot?

Why cant my ipad auto-connect to my hotspot? Whenever I turn my HS on I always have to go into my wifi settings on my ipad and manually connect. Its kind of a  pain to always have to do this.

    That seems to be a hot topic question which no one seems to have an answer to, including Apple. I too have this problem. I just signed up for hotspot this past weekend and am already regretting it and thinking about cancelling it. Not worth the hassle. One can only hope Apple with actually listen to it's users and fix the problem with a future update. Hopefully sooner rather than later.

    It SHOULD reconnect automatically after the initial set-up, just like the wifi.

    Not a very smart smartphone if you ask me.

    Anyone find an answer to this? I've tried via Bluetooth and wifi but neither auto connects to the hotspot the next time.
