The Hotspot option is provided by your carrier.


Tap Settings > Cellular


Do you see an option for Personal Hotspot?


If not, your carrier does not provide a Hotspot option....or....if they do, it is an additional option available at additional cost. Contact your carrier for more information.

Hello there, Jimmylou1980!

I am so sorry that you encountered a problem with setting up your hotspot, but I have some suggestions for you.


  • On your iPhone, Open Settings.
  • When you have opened up Settings, click on Personal Hotspot.
  • You will see a switch that says "Allow Others to Join", turn it on.
  • After that, if you want to connect devices to the network, you need to enter the Wi-Fi password which is under the "Allow Others to Join".



I hope this helped you, enjoy your day, Jimmylou1980!
