How can I limit connections to my hotspot?
I would like to know if the following can be done:
- Limit gadgets connecting with my hotspot
- Blocking a certain device
- Identify which gadgets may connect (via mac address)
Thank you!

The best way to limit connections is to not provide the devices the password to your hotspot. Then they cannot connect. The only devices that can connect without a password are devices that are signed into the same Apple ID as the device is that has Hotspot activated. There are not settings for limiting devices by MAC address.

Thank you. Someone seems to hack my already strong password that’s why I asked. Keep safe!
Change your password, and consider that they have hacked your Apple ID.
