In this blog post, we'll walk you through the process of setting up a mobile hotspot on your iPhone, step-by-step, so you can stay connected no matter where you are.
What is a Mobile Hotspot?
A mobile hotspot is a feature that allows your iPhone to share its cellular data connection with other devices, like your laptop or tablet. This means that you can use your iPhone's internet connection to browse the web, check emails, or stream videos on your other devices, even when Wi-Fi is not available.

2. A device to connect to the hotspot: You'll need another device, like a laptop or tablet, that has Wi-Fi capabilities to connect to your iPhone's mobile hotspot.
3. Sufficient data allowance: Keep in mind that using your iPhone as a mobile hotspot will consume your cellular data. Make sure you have enough data available in your plan to avoid any unexpected charges.
