Can prepaid iPhone 4S have personal hotspot?

I recently got an iPhone 4S on prepaid vodafone and I read on the web that you don't get personal hotspot on prepaid IPhone's and I just got a prepaid iphone so I'm wondering if vodafone added a new thing.

I've had personal hotspot on prepaid vodafone with both Iphone & Android. I have an android now so I can't remember the Iphone settings, but I think it was under Settings/Network/internet tethering

Yes, you can use the personal hotspot, but bearing in mind that you pay per kb rate from your prepaid credit unless you are on a prepaid cap.

Personal hotspot is feature that was always available on smartphones. The idea is to share your internet connection with other smartphone users.

I would advise getting a data pack if you wish to share your connection with others.

On iOS, the Personal Hotspot is located in Settings>General>Network>Cellular Data(On)>Personal Hotspot

  • Is the personal hotspot option on the iphone safe? I just learned i can use my iphone as a hotpot and i freaked out! Apparently you go settings, general, network, the it says personal hotspot! So is it safe? More importantly does it cost a lot or free?
  • If you have a personal hotspot does that make your 3g Internet faster? I'm new to this whole personal hotspot thing but I do have some information that I know like how it acts like a personal router to other devices such as Xbox, ipod, computer, etc. The only questions that I don't know are the ones below. -would it make my iPhone 4S much faster? -does it cost money to get it and if so how much? Oh i'm on sprint btw!
  • If someone uses your personal hotspot of iphone 5 what can they see? I was using my personal hotspot via USB and then I realised it had 2 connections. I immediately turned it off. However now I'm afraid because after this I got a call off a blocked number. If someone hacked into my Wi-Fi from my phone would they be able to see contents such as pictures on my phone? I'm very scaredz thank you
  • Can't turn personal hotspot off? I have iPhone 4 (not 4s) and in my settings it said personal hotspot do I clicked on it, it took me to another page and I turned on, it then took me back to the main settings page. I then didn't know how to use it because I didn't read instructions just turned it on… Now I want to turn it back off but the button isn't there anymore (in the main setting page the "personal hotspot" is gone.
