the Allowed device list. After you add devices to the list, they
can scan for your device and connect using your device’s
mobile hotspot name and password.

Using your tablet as a mobile hotspot consumes battery
power and uses data service. While Mobile Hotspot is
active, your tablet’s applications will use the Mobile
Hotspot data service. Roaming while using your tablet
as a mobile hotspot will incur extra data charges.
