For some reason the hotspot quick setting tile isn't available in Canada but is on some devices in other markers. Any way to enable this? I often use the hotspot and having to go into the actual full settings is annoying.

Same reason for mobile data toggle. Carriers block the quick settings.

A tutorial how to restore mobile data and mobile hotspot toggles. You need to do it yourself and nothing to do with Samsung. Here is the link:

Everytime if there is a software update, you need to redo it again.

For this to be a solution is a joke for a phone that costs $1500

Hi acheney1990, 

Yes, The option is not available in Canada and might be disabled by the carriers.

it's so strange because I can enable hotspot in settings and it's part of my plan through telus but the quick setting is always removed period so it doesn't stop me from doing it it just makes it more frustrating and less convenient.

Hi acheney1990,

In a way, I feel the same as you. But as of now, we don't have any update on this. I will let you know if we receive any information.

you can use a third party app like shortcutter and add the activity as quicktile

Hi neals,

Thanks for sharing the information and we must be a bit careful while using third-party apps.🙂

My s22u was bought thru Samsung. No carrier involvement. No Hotspot quick toggle. It's frustrating.

Why is this allowed? I share your pain. This is very anti-consumer practice. 😢😭
