When you connect a device to your personal hotspot, the status bar turns blue and shows how many devices are connected.

On the device you want to connect, go to Settings> Wi-Fi and look for your iPhone or iPad in the list. Then tap on the Wi-Fi network to connect. If asked, enter the password for your personal hotspot.

Bluetooth
To make sure your iPhone or iPad is discoverable, go to Settings> Bluetooth and stay on that screen. Then on your Mac or PC, follow the manufacturer instructions to establish a Bluetooth network connection. Learn more about using personal hotspots with Bluetooth.
