David & David explain how to fix the problem when Personal Hotspot is missing or not working on an iPhone.

If Personal Hotspot is missing on your iPhone, it's likely because there's a Configuration Profile that blocks hotspot, or the feature has been turned off by your wireless carrier.

Head to the General section of the iPhone Settings app and tap VPN & Device Management. Check if any configuration profiles are preventing you from using iPhone personal hotspot. If not, get in touch with your wireless carrier to see if iPhone hotspot has been disabled on your plan.

If personal hotspot isn't missing, try turning Cellular Data off and back on again. Cellular Data is what's used to turn your iPhone into a mobile hotspot. After that, check for a carrier setting update, which can improve your iPhone's connection to your wireless carrier's network.

It's also a good idea to restart your iPhone, which can fix minor software problems. Then, make sure your iPhone is running the latest version of iOS. This will help keep your iPhone running smoothly.

If Personal Hotspot still isn't working, it's time for deeper software troubleshooting steps. First, Reset Network Settings, which erases all Cellular, Wi-Fi, APN, and VPN settings to factory defaults. If that doesn't work, back up your iPhone and perform a DFU restore, the deepest type of iPhone restore.
