can i put videos here because i can show you it working with an iphone i’ve already paired it on

There's no reason to post a video because what you're suggesting has NEVER been supported. I think you're confusing Hotspot with Bluetooth. But regardless, you cannot now, nor could you previously connect two iPhones to each other via Bluetooth. There is NO protocol built into iPhone to facilitate such a pairing.
