OK, my internet computer gurus, how do I make a smart phone into a wifi hotspot?

Asked by Dutchess_III (46863points) December 4th, 2015

A few years ago my husband was told about an app, FoxFi, that is a free download and turned his phone into a wifi hotspot. He was told about it by a cell phone dealer working out of a “TV and appliance” store. Selling phones was just a minor, secondary income for the store owner. He said our carrier offered the same thing…for $10 a month. FoxFi is free. He had nothing to lose by giving us this info.

Well, that phone is gone now and I’m looking for a free wifi app for a friend so she can use her home computer via her phone.

How would we work this?
