Bluetooth Hotspot Notes:
- We are aware some devices do not have bluetooth tether natively, so we make no guarantees that this app will work on those units (Galaxy Note 2 and Galaxy S4 to name a few)
- On some phones, if the app is reopened during tethering session, you might see the app showing you are not tethered BUT you actually still are
- Bluetooth hotspot is not as smooth as WiFI hotspot as sometimes, devices pair but still can't use mobile data connection (this is a phone and not an app issue) so you might need to give it a few tries to start seeing mobile data connection
Disclaimer:
- This app only works for those phones already originally equipped with tethering capabilities but are being blocked by carriers by default. For more information, look at Bluetooth notes.
- We are also aware that recently (a few months ago from this writing), some carriers pushed an OTA update that carried a "malicious" apk file that blocks this app as well as the numerous apps from allowing your phone to tether. This is due to an apk called TetheringProvision.apk. One way around this is to root your phone (AT YOUR OWN RISK) and freeze this apk. Then use tethering apps again.
- SOME carrier phones will still not work because they do some sort of deep packet inspection which we THINK looks into browsers user agents, but cannot be quoted on.
This app is totally FREE and we are doing this for the love of it. Please support us by rating and emailing us any issues you might have and we will help as much as possible. We BELIEVE anything you buy (be it phones or mobile data plans), should be used without usage restriction. It only make sense as you've already paid for it!!!

Useless - will not connect to mobile data when tether function is enabled. Don't waste your time.
I love this app especially because when I try to open it, it said unfortunately this app is not responding. And I got this message five times in a row and I deleted the hell out of it
I have an at&t lgg4 on the metro pcs network. at&t blocked hotspot functions. this app allowed me to use my hot spot function with ease.
The network cant be connected to by any other device. It doesnt even show up
scam not bypass protection lycamobile. still no internet.
Doesn't even let me in the app so I don't know how it works.
Works great with the hotspot and Bluetooth tethering. I would recommend it to anyone. My phones carrier wouldn't let me use my default hotspot but thus works as a replacement
I installed this because I don't have the option to configure my hotspot, this provides that option, but while other devices CAN see my hotspot, they can't seem to connect.
Waste of time you have to be subscribed to your carrier it's hot spot for this to work
Says its connected but cannot find hotspot on other devices
Does not work with AT&T prepaid BYOD: Moto X
Says it is connected but it does not show up on any of my wifi devices. Maybe it works on older phones, mine is a no carrier unlocked phone.
Seems like a good app but on my computer it says can't connect and I cant find my device
If i'd known that it used MY paid hotspot data i could have turned that on myself! Thanks a lot bs app! Developer can kick rocks! Thanks for using MY HOTSPOT and calling it your app!!!
My carrier wouldn't allow me to use my hotspot function on my phone, so I downloaded this app and it works amazingly! Thanks!!!
Great app! Helped me fix my hotspot issue. Its nice to have a great app with no ads.
Great app for data package, if you have a preprogrammed hotspot, but it is blocked.
Try something else
Does it work for 6s edge plus for sprint
Can't bypass Verizon and use paid for phone data
Guys if you have a tether plan this isn't going to let you bypass your data restrictions. Your dumb fault for paying additional fees for internet you already pay for.
Tested on HTC One M8 rooted. Uses built in wireless hotspot. That doesn't work. I don't need a functioning lan with out internet access.
No Bluetooth. No hotspot. SSID never shows up on ANY other device n zilch happens via Bluetooth.
We don't need this crap.. we need a app that does not use sprints wifi hotspot Subscription
G3 Kit Kat stock. Still calls up the Verizon block.
For year I have look for a hotspot that works for straight talk
For the future to be free from tyrannical restrictions that are impossible to enforce we n8eed apps & developers like these
Was great... then i had to do a factory reset and it no longer works.
Moto X4: Won't run. I immediately get, "OTS Wifi Hotspot keeps stopping." I'm unable to even see the app, much less try it.
