You need to set up the <a href="https://thedroidguy.com/how-to-find-hotspot-password-on-samsung-phone-1245673">Mobile Hotspot service</a> before you can use it properly. But don’t worry, setting it up is easy and you can surely follow the steps. Here’s how it’s done: 

1. Pull down the Quick Settings panel and then tap on the gear icon.

   This will open the Settings app that will allow you to change or edit some features in your phone. 

2. Tap on Network & internet.

   It’s the first option from the top so you can find it easily.

3. Find and tap Hotspot & tethering.

   This will allow you to set up Wi-Fi hotspot, which can provide internet to other devices through your Wi-Fi or mobile data connection. 

4. Tap Wi-Fi hotspot.

   You will then be brought to the next screen where you can configure the feature. 

5. Tap Hotspot name and enter the network name you want to use.

   Make it as descriptive as possible so you can easily distinguish it from other networks. 

6. Tap Security and make sure that WPA2-Personal is selected.

   None means that anybody could connect to your hotspot and share your phone’s Internet connection. 

7. Tap Hotspot password.

   Then enter the password that you can easily remember but hard enough for others to guess. 

8. Tap the switch next to Turn off hotspot automatically to enable it.

   What it does is disable the Wi-Fi hotspot after some time that no device is connected to it. 

9. As for Extend compatibility, it’s basically a switch to choose between 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz.

   Apparently, if the switch is disabled, your phone broadcasts 5Ghz signal and when enabled, it’s 2.4Ghz. It’s up to you which one you want to use but if your other devices aren’t as new, we suggest you enable it. 

10. Tap the switch next to Use Wi-Fi hotspot to enable it.

    Once you’ve done that, your Pixel 7 will immediately start broadcasting the signal for your other devices to connect to.
