WiFi Tethering iPhone
Hi all,
Just wanted to confirm I’m not missing a trick. When I tether with Bluetooth it connects automatically and within a few seconds I am connected to the internet. However, when using WiFi tethering (as you can’t use Bluetooth with AppleCarPlay) I have to go into the hotspot setting in the iPhone every time, it then takes a short while and connects to the internet, after that, I can carry on using it with the screen off for all my journey. Is this other people’s experience with WiFi tethering and iPhone or does anyone have hints on connecting automatically without having to go into settings every time? The hotspot is turned on but seems to go to go into suspend until you go into settings. Thanks in advance |

I’ve just ordered a 3 24gb/24 month data SIM for £42 so I’ll just use the in built WiFi which will hopefully be more streamlined |

My 12 GB card expired this week after 12 months with approx 2 GB still on it.

You can add a WiFi quick toggle on most Android (so easy access notification shade), but you can also use NFC or run an app (such as Tasker to automatically do this every time your phone connect to your car's Bluetooth)
