Brett’s iTip: Automatically share your Hotspot with Family. During our travels, the family still needed to connect to the Internet for work, school, and play so we’ve made good use of our wi-fi hotspots on our iPhones. I have an unlimited data plan from AT&T and sometimes need to let the kids connect to my hotspot. Since I’ve already turned on Family Sharing in my iCloud account, I can easily share my hotspot with them either “Automatically” or have them “Ask for Approval” first. Either way, they do not have to enter a password to connect.
