Personal Hotspot keeps turning off itself

Hey, has anyone experienced something like this too? I tried to connect it to my mom’s phone but after like less than a minute it got disconnected. I tried to turn it on again, yet it still happens.

Does anyone know why this happened? And how to fix this.

Btw i’m using IPhone SE (2016) and IOS 13.1

veralda,


Thank you for keeping us posted. Also, we appreciate you trying the steps we've recommended.


The next best step is to reach out to your carrier to check if your plan includes Personal Hotspot.

Also, we recommend asking your carrier for any potential limitations of your cellular data.

Personal Hotspot is a carrier-provided service, they are in a better position to confirm these details.


If your carrier confirmed that you should be able to use Personal Hotspot, we recommend that you reach out to us here so we can take a closer look into the issue: Get Support



Take care!
