Use Instant Hotspot
You can use Instant Hotspot on your iPad (Wi-Fi + Cellular models) or iPhone to provide Internet access to your other devices and Mac computers where you’re signed in with the same Apple ID (iOS 8, iPadOS 13, OS X 10.10, or later required). Instant Hotspot uses your iPhone or iPad Personal Hotspot, without you having to enter a password or even turn on Personal Hotspot.
Use Instant Hotspot
Go to Settings
, then tap Wi-Fi on your other iOS or iPadOS device (models without cellular capabilities).Below My Networks, choose your iPhone or iPad network.
On your Mac, choose your iPhone or iPad network from your Wi-Fi settings.
When you’re not using the hotspot, your devices disconnect to save battery life. For more information about ways to set up a Personal Hotspot see Share your Internet connection.
Note: This feature may not be available with all carriers. Additional fees may apply. Contact your carrier for more information.
