Personal hotspots are the in-built feature that helps iPhone users to access the internet on other devices when you are not in the range of a Wi-Fi network. A personal hotspot takes your cellular data and converts it into a Wi-Fi signal. Here, you will get to know how you can change your personal hotspot’s name and password on your iPhone.
The iPhone’s hotspot is handy if you get stuck in a place without Wi-Fi connections but want to work as it’s important. Meanwhile, by default, while turning on your iPhone’s hotspot, the hotspot name is just the name of your iPhone. In order to easily find your device from the lists of networks, it is a great option to change the name to something else you like.
