It’s not in control centre on iPhone and no option to put it there

I’ve always found the Personal Hotspot consistent. It’s as you describe it but I always assumed it was part of the intentional design: they let you set a persistent password so, to protect you, it switches itself off after a period of inactivity.

I, too, find that I have to toggle it off and back on again for it to show up again on client devices that had used it previously. I figured that Apple has designed it to hide the SSID and deactivate connections after a while.

It was such a strong assumption (which might, of course, be wrong) that I didn’t even bother to Google it to check.

absolutely not

Id assume they might be using a cable between the iPhone and the other device perhaps a MBP?

Take my upvote

Someone’s going though and downvoting any slightly positive or joking comment lol

This is Apple though, they want uninformed people to blame the windows laptop they are using and buy a Mac book etc.

If this happens, the existing pencils better be compatible. I already have one for my iPad and wouldn't want to buy another.

using one as my work phone. it gets the job done for sure

Lmao, I agree. It's horrible, it's like someone vomited all over your screen.

> Guided Access?

I have seen YT videos refer to this but I do not know if this provides what I want. I am only using one app and that is the one I do not want to command while continuing to play. I am also not encouraged by the number of commands needed to turn it off or on.

I only use Carrot Weather, Calendar, and occasionally Battery.

Heads up iCloud Photos is a sync service, not a backup.

Oh didn’t properly look at the picture before Those emjois 😂

I mean I’m obviously joking - was hoping the emojis I selected would have given that away haha

Who pissed in your cereal mate

You don’t have to use it, it’s just an optional extra feature that other might find a use for

Whatever

Disagree

No

It’s been great for that exact thing for me.

I also use it for scheduling my appointments as a contractor.
