Android wins in this one, personal hotspot - eviltoast

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

    I usually connect to my hotspot during transfers and i never got problems, maybe you need to manually turn it on if you want to connect but i always maintained connection

      But here’s the thing that’s really weird. Once my screen locks on the guest device, the host device still has personal hotspot and enabled but yet on the host device they have to disable and then re-enable personal hotspot for the guest device to reconnect to that hotspot.
