So we are trying to set up mobile hot spot on I phone 7+ 

we go into iPhone settings> then cellular>then set up personal hotspot

we click the ‘set up personal hotspot’ and window that says go to a webpage on Verizon pops up -we click the link and it gives us the following webpage

Https://mobile.vzw.com/hybridClient/nvm/hotspot

 

this is what is on that page... which  is not helpful 

{"PageInfo":{"value":null,"scrnMsgInfo":{"scrnMsg":null,"scrnMsgMap":{"errorMsg":"This version of the My Verizon app is no longer supported. Please visit <a href=\"http://www.vzw.com\">vzw.com</a>."}},"unit":null,"hideFooter":"N","pageData":null,"scrnSubHdg":null,"scrnHdg":"Sign In","pageSubType":null,"scrnOptMsgsInfo":null,"pageType":"error","alertMsg":null},"ErrInfo":{"errCd":"13023","errLvl":"3","errHdg":null,"errUsrMsgList":null,"errMsg":"Error","errUsrMsg":"This version of the My Verizon app is no longer supported.

What plan are you on?  Does it allow hotspot use?

What device are you trying to connect to the phone?

Is there a good cellular signal indoors?

We are on old version of unlimited plan, so we believe it allows it.

I pad pro 2019 needs to be connected to hotspot.

Prettt good cell signal - I typically have 4 bars

The error described above tells us that the Start Unlimited plan is the plan you are on. Regrettably your plan must be updated as Start Unlimited does not include Personal Hotspot or Mobile Hotspot.
