HotSpot Toggle

Apart from doing it's basic job of switching your wifi hotspot on and off with a single tap extremely well, this widget has some nice extra features. 2-stage highlight: The circle switches on and off immediately to acknowledge the tap and the 3 arcs switch on and off when wifi has successfully been activated or deactivated. Restore wifi state: The widget resets your wifi state to what it was before you switched the hotspot on. Error: The circle goes red if there's an error.

This app used to work fine until I updated my phone a few weeks ago. Now it will not turn the phone's hot spot on. It says "hotspot activated" and the widget turns blue for a second, then it turns off all the

It seems like a great app, but unfortunately it does not support my Samsung Galaxy S3 (KitKat operating system). If you could please possibly find a loophole around this problem, I would be greatly appreciated. For now I'll give it 2 Stars.

Doesnt work. LG V20 T-Mobile. I added widget to home screen, checked the settings in the widget and tried it. When I tapped the icon the bars went from all gray to the bottom sphere blue but nothing happened as far as turning on the hotspot. I tried tapping it again, waiting, no change. Tried a few more times to see if tapping a few times in succession did anything - no change. Uninstalling it.

Used to love this HotSpot Widget that resided on my front page and prevented me from having to dig deep into settings to turn on and off my HotSpot. It became unstable after the latest KitKat update. It would connect then quickly disconnect. Thought it was the update itself that was causing HotSpot problems, that is, until I just went deep into settings and turned it on manually.

Nice straightforward widget, many thanks. Unobtrusive icon and transparent background are very nice and the colour change when active is also great. I particularly like the sensible set of options including the ability to restore Wi-Fi state. I had to reboot (power off then on) my rooted Nexus 5 (Android 4.4) before this would show up in the widgets list but apart from that it's perfect.

But its no longer working in Android 5 Lollipop. Old review: Works great on Nexus 5. Does exactly what it is supposed to. Nice customisation features for appearance. And well designed at under 100 KB. Only flaw is as previously commented: icon label does not line up. @Jessica and others - it's not an app. Look for it among your widgets.

Turns hotspot on/off and restores wifi. It seems to only run the setup page when first moved from the widget library to your home page. So if you want to modify the setup (font, color, label string, transparency, restore wifi) just send the icon to trash and copy it over again from the widget library. No more digging in the Galaxy S3 menu to turn on hotspot. Saves 4 key presses! Great!

This widget works well. It is simple but saves me the time of going through several setup screens to enable hotspot. The only issue I have with it is that the icon is just a little larger than the rest so it doesn't line up with the rest of the icons on the screen.

Not only works perfectly on my Sprint G3 but has super customizable features. Out of hundreds of Android Apps I have probably given out maybe 6-7 five start ratings and this app gets 5 stars.

Used to be a great app, just turn hot spot on/off with one tap. One thing spoiled it all - after update to Android5 it stopped working completely. Hoping for a fix.

I've been using this for nearly 3 years, on a multitude of devices; and I've only encountered one failure: on a ZTE Z959 Grand X Max running 5.1.1. With numerous successes and a single failure, I'm willing to mark this one among the other problems I've had with this Chinese POS. -Five stars all the way.

Finally I find a widget that turns wi-fi back on after leaving the hotspot. I wanted an easy way for my wife to use her tablet from her phone's hotspot feature, but searching the app store took hours before finding a toggle that would return her phone's wi-fi state without having to go and turn it back on when she was done using the hotspot. It's so useful that I installed it on my phone too for using my tablet. *[Note: My phone uses Android 5.0 Lollipop which breaks widget so I dropped a star until fixed]

Doesn't work on my Samsung note 2 anymore. Since update to 4.4.2 it will not connect. Use to love it until is stopped working. Thx

Great app but the icon and text shows up a little larger than all the other icons on my Samsung Galaxy S4. Wish they would fix that, looks a little tacky. But as far as functionality goes, it works great.

I cant even find it. Not even as a logo. I powered my phone off and then back on and still nothing. I would not even give it one star. Dont download

With the label turned off its just an icon that toggles the hotspot. No more, no less. Works fine for me on a ZTE-87 (Australian Telstra Dave) running 4.1.2

Does nothing on SGN4 running stock rooted MM. It might still work on JB or even some KK devices but that's not a lot to write home about in 2017.

Worked great for me for years, but it's now no longer needed in Lollipop with the hotspot toggle in the pull down menu.

Dispite screenshots ... you can optionally disable the label, and see only the logo. AP off = grey. AP on = blue. With transition states. Just sad the logo is so close and confusable with classic Wifi. I'd have prefered a ... more explanatory logo, not so similar to ... wifi client. But I am tired of searching in Play, I keep this widget. The Android AP logo is nice: dot in the middle, with waves on both sides.

Does exactly what I was expecting, the only thing that I wish I could change is the color of the actual widget not just the text.

It would rate a five if the icon would line up properly and the icon should be like all my other icons. It sure saves alot of clicks. I use several times a day and it has never crashed. Thanks for a great time saving widget!

I've only had use this for about 10 or 20 minutes but from what I've used it works very well, especially for a free app. So try it out you may like it too! :)

The app stopped working well on my Gs4. It's now Dec 20. Had to uninstall and try another. Sorry.

I would have given it five stars, except that it no longer works on my phone. It saved several steps to enable and disable the hotspot. I've found an alternative app.

On my Galaxy S4 running Android 4.4.2, the widget does not toggle the hotspot.

Exactly what I needed. Easy to switch back and forth between HotSpot and WiFi.

Icon flashes blue, then back to grey. It says hotspot activated but it's not. Samsung S3

I really thank God for this app,I've been searching for a way to turn on my pantech burst hotspot,I almost try to give out this lovely device to a friend just because of this issue.. But thank God I've got a solution... Thank you very much the developer of this app.

I loved the app, but since kit kat update it doesn't work. Please fix for 5 star rating.
