iOS 26.4: Enhanced Personal Hotspot Data Monitoring Released
iOS 26.4 has been released, introducing various new features, including a significant update to the Personal Hotspot function. This change specifically enhances the ability to monitor data usage.
Detailed Usage in Settings
The Personal Hotspot menu within the Settings application now displays detailed data usage statistics on a per-device basis. Users can easily access this information by navigating to Settings > Personal Hotspot.
Data Usage Menu
A dedicated "Data Usage" menu will appear at the bottom of the screen, specifically when the hotspot has been recently utilized. Inside this menu, a clear breakdown of data consumption for each connected device is provided.
Users also have the option to reset these individual data statistics. This reset is achieved by resetting their overall cellular usage statistics, which is accessible via Settings > Cellular.
This enhancement aims to provide users with a convenient method for tracking data usage across their personal devices or when the hotspot is shared with others.
