YOGYAKARTA - WiFi Hotspot tethering using a cellphone is a common thing these days. Users usually use their cellphones as hotspots so that other devices such as laptops and computers can connect to the internet.

By activating WiFi Hotspot tethering, it means that the user has opened access to an internet connection on your phone, via a wireless network. Almost all smartphones including the iPhone can be used as a hotspot.

Basically the WiFi Hotspot tethering feature works by turning your phone into a hotspot that can provide an internet connection via a WiFi network. The internet connection provided comes from an active cellular data plan on your phone.

For a number of phones, especially Android phones, the WiFi Hotspot tethering menu usually automatically appears in the network settings, so users can easily activate it. However, for iPhone phones, the menu usually doesn't appear, so users have to activate it in a more complicated way.

Even so, users need not worry because below the VOI team has compiled the steps that you can follow to enable WiFi Hotspot tethering on iPhone phones.

How to Enable WiFi Hotspot Tethering on iPhone

To activate the WiFi Hotspot tethering feature on the iPhone, the user can turn on your device, then enter the Settings menu in the form of a gear menu on the user's cellphone.
