Does Everyone but me know there's a Tethering widget?

I use the hotspot so infrequently I never thought to look. Nice find, but I probably won't install it. I'm prone to accidental button presses in my pocket and I'd hate have a hotspot on when I'm not looking.
 
FWIW, the widget itself "illuminates" when you're tethering. Yeah, you could still turn it on inside your pocket I guess but IF you were even looking at the screen you'd now you'd turned it on. From both the Android tool bar And the widget.

I don't have eyes in my pocket, but my wife tells me my brains are in my .... um ... the topic was tethering widgets. ;)

Okay, I installed it. :rolleyes:

Just to be clear, because I like to be clear.

Bruce, you are talking about a widget that turns on and off the WiFi hotspot with a single tap. This works for phones that already have the WiFi functionality enabled.

Michael, you linked to an app that enables WiFi hotspot functionality for phones that do not have it enabled.

Now, the question is, can you use both together?
