Apple's iOS devices, particularly the new iPhone 8, include a function known as Personal Hotspot, which is used to share cellular data (mobile data) connections with other nearby devices via Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, or USB connections. Tethering is the general term for this feature. When you enable Personal Hotspot, your iPhone works as a wireless router for other devices. In a nutshell, the iPhone sends and receives data for them.

A data plan that enables tethering or a Personal Hotspot is one of the criteria for using a Personal Hotspot. Your iOS device must also be running a recent version of iOS. If you wish to connect your gadgets with a USB cable, you must also secure one. Once you've met all of the prerequisites, you're ready to turn your iPhone into a Wi-Fi hotspot.
