Hotspot

Anyone else’s hotspot option disappear in setting after updating to iOS 14. I’ve tried everything that is said online about making it come back but my hotspot just doesn’t pop up in settings. Everyone else is in my family on the same plan still has hotspot. Anyone have a solution???

iPhone XR, iOS 14

You can try a clean install of your device after a factory reset:


First make sure you have a backup

Then factory reset your device:

Restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to factory settings - Apple Support


And set it up without a backup. See if the issue persists.


If it does:

Contact Apple for support and service - Apple Support


If that solved it there was a software issue. Try restoring the backup and see if it still works.

if that made the problem come back the backup is the problem


Good luck!
