Thanks, but maybe my question was unclear. I have set Iphone and Ipad wifi on and Blietooth on. I want to connect Ipad Automaticcaly to connect to Iphone hotspot. I have to connect every time by hand.
Is your iPhone in relatively close proximity to your iPad? If not, automatic connection to the hotspot may not occur. It follows that automatic connection to the iPhone hotspot can only occur if your iPad is not within range of a configured WiFi network.
As an observation - since updating to iOS/iPadOS 14.7.1, I have noticed when using the iPhone hotspot that the iPad sometimes displays a notification pop-up indicating that a WiFi network is not available. When simply acknowledging the notification (as opposed to launching WiFi settings), the iPad will then automatically connect to the iPhone hotspot. After the initial connection, reconnection to the hotspot is fully seamless/automatic.
