Step by step

Tap the words Mobile Hotspot
Samsung gives Settings, Connections, Mobile Hotspot and Tethering. Tap the name, not the switch; the line under it says how many devices are connected.

Tap the devices connected line
Mobile data shared today shows a bar split by device, the top three and Other devices. Below them, tap the line that says how many devices are connected.

Read the Connected devices list
Manage Mobile Hotspot lists every connected device with the data it used that day.

Scroll down and tap the chart icon
Below the list is Previously connected devices. The chart icon at the top right opens the usage report.

Switch between Weekly and Monthly
Hotspot usage report shows a bar per day and the data per device. Ours said 20.50 GB that week.
If you do not see this option
- No list of devices? The list is on Manage Mobile Hotspot, opened from the devices connected line on the Mobile Hotspot page. With nobody connected there is nothing to list. Source: Use a mobile hotspot on your Galaxy phone or tablet

- Where do I see the password? On the Mobile Hotspot page, under Network name. Samsung says you can view and change the password for your hotspot there. Source: Use a mobile hotspot on your Galaxy phone or tablet
If this does not work
- A device you don't know? Change the hotspot password so only people you give it to can join. Samsung says you can hide your device and adjust more options if you do not want strangers on it. Source: Use a mobile hotspot on your Galaxy phone or tablet
- Data runs out fast? Manage Mobile Hotspot has Set data limit next to Lock Hotspot; we did not use either. Samsung notes that even unlimited plans may have limitations. Source: Mobile hotspot issues with a Samsung phone
