Hello! Today we’re going to talk about something significant in your digital world: your mobile hotspot. If you have ever had trouble keeping your internet link strong, the hotspot is a useful tool. This reliable help makes sure that you can connect to the internet from anywhere.
We’ve all let someone use our hotspots when their internet link is sketchy, right? Despite this, there are times when we forget to set up passwords, which leads to a message telling us that our data is about to expire. Why does this need to happen?
Since you only shared the hotspot with one person, you are sure that it will not run out so quickly. Because of this, you don’t know who has been using your mobile wifi right now. We’ve all been there!
Today, we’re going to look into the fun job of finding out who has used your mobile hotspot in the past.
How can I see a list of all the people who have used my mobile hotspot?
You can look at the historical information of people who have connected to your mobile hotspot. To make the process easier, we’ve found the three best ways to do it.
So, what are you looking forward to? Let’s take a look at them and see which one works best for you.
Method 1: Using a Google Account
Would you like to see a list of all the people who have used your mobile hotspot? Assisting with a legal monitoring plan is something we can do. So, why not give it a try?
Something like a laptop or PC would be needed for this to work. Once you get it, choose which Gmail account you want to keep an eye on.
In this case, the account needs to have the Web and Application Activity choice turned on. Following this, you will be able to see everything that the person using that account does while connected to your Hotspot network.
Method 2: Use an app to manage mobile hotspots
Have you come across any apps that can help you manage your mobile hotspot? There are, in fact, a few apps that work the same way.
This part will talk about a choice that is easy to use. You can get Mobile Hotspot Manager from the Google Play Store. It makes it easier to handle your hotspot settings.
Through this app, you can see a lot of information about the people who have used your mobile hotspot in the past. You will also be given information about how much data was used and how long the hotspot was used.
The following steps are needed to use the Mobile Hotspot Manager app:
- Step 1: Go to the Google Play Store and download the app.
- Step 2: Start the app and choose the “Start” choice.
- Step 3: There are three choices on the interface: Settings, Connected Devices, and Statistics. Pick out the connected devices. After that, a list of all the devices that are linked to your hotspot will be shown.
- Step 4: To see your browsing data, click on the “Statistics” tab.
It is also possible to use different apps. However, it is important to look at an app’s scores and reviews before using any other app besides the one we suggested.
Third Method: The NeoData App
The NeoData app says it keeps an eye on how much data your mobile WiFi is using in real-time. You can get it from the Google Play Store if you want to try it out.
When someone uses the app, they might wonder how it helps them. It works very well because it keeps track of each user’s IP address.
We have written a full tutorial on how to use this app below. Because of this, make sure you read it and follow the directions.
This is how it should be used:
- Go to the Google Play Store, type “NeoData,” and then tap “Install.”
- Run the app after it’s been installed.
- After that, click “OK.”
- On the next screen, you’ll see an opportunity to set up a data plan. Make sure that the internet plan for your account is set up.
- Pick out tethering and portable hotspots and tap them.
- A list of all the devices that are linked to your hotspot will be shown.
Keep in mind that by pressing on each item in the list, you can get a lot of different kinds of information, including how much data it used and how long it was connected.
Bonus: How can I see what devices are connected to my mobile hotspot at the moment?
You may want to know who is using your mobile hotspot for free if you have given it to a friend and haven’t set a password. Is that right? But sometimes it’s just out of interest to make sure it’s not being used without your permission.
This part describes how to look over the list of people who are connected to your mobile hotspot. So, if you’re interested, please take a look.
This is an important guide for people who use Android:
- Click on the Settings app on your phone to start the action.
- Step 2: This is where you’ll find the “Connections” choice. Pick it.
- Step 3: Find the Mobile Hotspot and Tethering choice on the next page and click on it.
- Step 4: Next, press and hold the mobile hotspot options.
- Step 5: Can you see a list of all the devices that are linked to your hotspot? The “Connected Devices” page is where you can find it.
Please be aware that these steps were carried out using the Samsung model. Because of this, the names of the display and options on other phone types may be different. No matter what, you need to go to the Settings menu to fix any problems I find.
