Is this possible without rooting the hotspot phone?
If so, which VPNs let you do this?
NordVPN says "give people your password" and they install the app on their device and use your credentials.
I dont feel comfortable not doing that.
Any way to achieve this?

Install nord VPN on your mobile and connect your laptop to the mobile with Hotspot enabled. Probably should use android because I think Apple wont allow you to use Hotspot with VPN.

>>106479839
Yes, but why not just install it on your router? Why the phone?
>>
>>106479874
tried this
it doesnt work
adroid phone does not pass hotspot data through vpn

looks like I need a vpn-tethering app
>>
>>106479883
portability

I don't think you can share vpn connection on android (at least you couldn't before). buy a 20 dollar travel router. or use the raspberry pi you have in your drawer

>>106479915
In this case do what this anon told you >>106479883

Setup router to work with VPN and switch it off to normal mode when you dont need it. I think its the best way although I've never setup my router with VPN.
>>
>>106479933
recommend a portable router
>>
Here's what I don't get - you get a VPN and instead of getting some credentials, you get a shitty middleware app to run? This shit glows as hard as the sun.
>>
>>106479971
it seems that android and apple dont naturally pass hotspot traffic through the vpn
you need a middle app to bridge hotspot data to the vpn
but youre right
shouldnt need a middle app
it should be a feature of the vpn's app
otherwise, the vpn is suspiciously wanting you to install its app on all devices when they know its not necessary
very glow-ish

>>106479971
It's probably a work phone and laptop. OP wants to work from "home" ;)

>Is this possible without rooting the hotspot phone?
its literally say in the scheme "Connects via WIFI Hotspot"
>>
Not without root, but there's this:
