iOS has had an issue for years now, where if you lock the screen of the iPhone that using the personal hotspot, it will automatically disconnect for some stupid reason. Android doesn’t have this problem. I think the reasoning is, because iOS and android used to different hotspots. Say I use my sisters, android devices are hotspot, and that never happens when I lock my device. Can Apple use the same Wi-Fi hotspot very because this is really annoying
Are you using both Apple products? If you’re signed into the same iCloud then it will show up and tapping on the phone will enable the hotspot. Apple does their own special thing to make your other device discoverable to your other Apple devices.
