Wi-Fi Hotspot Widget

NOTE:Some service providers (for example, Verizon) BLOCK YOUR HOTSPOT because they want to charge you extra to use it. If this app doesn't work for you, that might be the reason. At the moment, I do not have the time to update this app to help users work around their service providers; if you need an app to do this, you may find some elsewhere in the Play store.
Features:
* A single tap of the homescreen widget to enable or disable your wifi hotspot state.
* Automatically detects and restores prior wifi state when disabling hotspot.
* Works on Android 3.0+ devices (Honeycomb and later).
* Suitable for hi-res displays.

If your wifi hotspot is enabled when you place the widget on your home screen, it may take a few seconds for the widget to recognize this and display correctly. Don't worry, it works!

Explanation of permissions:*
* ACCESS_WIFI_STATE **Checks whether wifi state is enabled or disabled prior to turning it off or on.

*
* CHANGE_WIFI_STATE **Necessary to allow app to change wifi state.

*
* BILLING **This app is free. After using it for a period of time, it will ask if you want to donate to support its development. If you choose not to, you may choose to never be asked again.

Sadly this didn't work for me on Xiaomi Mi5Pro / MIUI 9.1.4.0 / Android 7.0. I get errors to the effect that permissions haven't been granted, but the app doesn't ask for permissions on my phone and I don't have an option to turn on permissions that haven't been requested in the 'security' and app settings bits on my phone (I suspect this is an Android 7 thing). I like the implementation though, and the described functionality is exactly what I'm looking for. I think this might not work on all Android 7 phones, I encourage all y'all to try it anyway. If it runs, you're on a winner! Nice work, OP, thanks for this app! 👍🙂

Sometimes doesn't respond even if you press it a dozen times, particularly during start up... For something so simple it's disappointing that it doesn't fully work. I like the icon though :)
