So I brought my S23 ultra on leas with rogers and the first thing I notice is hotspot icon missing from quick panel. I checked whole settings and I can not find any option to add the icon to quick panel. It's quite annoying to always go to settings and look for hotspot to turn it on. I don't know what to do if anyone have any idea please let me know.

Just add the HotSpot Toggle to your QS Tiles using adb. 

Command line:

settings put secure sysui_qs_tiles "$(settings get secure sysui_qs_tiles),HotSpot

Download & Install Samsung USB Drivers, Platform-Tools to your computer. 

Enable USB Debugging on your phone (Settings > Software Information & Click on the Build Number 7 TIMES).

Connect your phone to the computer and "allow" the connection when prompted. 

Open Windows Power Shell on the computer.

Type:

 

.\adb devices

 

To verify the connection 

 

The command line to add the HotSpot Toggle to your QS Tiles is:

 

 

settins put secure sysui_qs_tiles "$(settings get secure sysui_qs_tiles),HotSpot" 

 

Press Enter. 

 

The HotSpot Toggle will be there immediately.

They did that on an update many years ago. I remember you used to be able to just download a widget and put it on your home screen. Now you need to be a computer programmer Apperantly

it's pretty simple and would take less than 10 seconds to do it.

You can't add what is not there! 

It HAS to be added with adb.
