iOS 26.4 adds a new feature that shows how much data connected devices have used through Personal Hotspot.
Available in the Personal Hotspot settings under the “Maximize Compatibility” toggle, this feature breaks down data usage by device, with non-Apple devices simply showing up as an “Other Devices” group. The total personal data usage of the hotspot will also be displayed.
Previously, there was no way to see how much data was being used by devices connected to a personal hotspot. This feature can be especially useful for those who have a data cap on their career plan.
iOS 26.4 is now available in developer beta. A public beta will be released in the near future. Apple plans to release the update in the spring.
