Hi, does the iPhone 12 work differently with hotspots than before? I have noticed that it doesn't seem to work in some scenarios as before. I have an Android based stereo in my car and with my iPhone XS (running the latest iOS), as soon as I got into the car and my two devices connected through bluetooth, the stereo was connected to my iPhones hotspot over bluetooth. Now with my iPhone 12 Pro, I notice that even when a bluetooth connection is established, the hotspot doesn't connect automatically. It seems to only work through wifi, not bluetooth anymore. Any ideas? Or am I missing a setting somewhere?
