I have unlimited data so that should not be an issue after the update it was gone

Is that what your phone carrier told you when you called them?

No you're not comprehending. Doesn't matter if you have unlimited/limited data hotspot is your phone carrier feature only they can fix it for you.

You pay them not Apple not the ios update a monthly fee to use hotspot.

You have already powered off the phone, waited a minute and then powered it back up, correct?

What did your carrier say when you contacted their support folks to ask about this issue?

In my case, the carrier had to send an update out, which the carrier said had already been sent out previously.....(but I never got it). After a few minutes, the update appeared when tapping Settings > General > About.

You pay your cellular data provider to use hotspot on your phone, you'll need to contact them to resolve your issue.
