Guyz recently Samsung has released an amazing Wi-fi feature called auto-hotspot where you can turn on hotspot of your other Samsung phone's hotspot without touching it. There is also an additional feature that allows you to add nearby device (which maybe a non-samsung device) to turn on hotspot using auto-hotspot feature. But i can't figure how to use it. Does anybody know how to add a non-samsung device?

have you tried using "Add allowed device" under mobile hotspot settings page?
the device you want to add dioxins be in bluetooth range as I know.. this allows to add Samsung phones( android q ) which have not signed into Samsung account

Auto Hotspot. Nice idea, BUT...

It disconnects my normal network connection, even when it is turned off,

so I end up with no internet, or wi-fi.

Not useful when working from home.
