Hotspot shortcut in quick panel doesn't toggle on/off

[BLuvly]

All of a sudden my Hotspot shortcut in the quick panel doesn't toggle on or off. I have to take the long route.

Anyone else have this issue?

Access Quick Settings:

Swipe down from the top of the screen to open the notification shade. Then, swipe down again to expand the full Quick Settings panel.

2. Enter Edit Mode:

Look for an "Edit" or pencil icon within the Quick Settings panel. Tap it to enter edit mode.

3. Locate the Hotspot Icon:

You'll see a list of available buttons (some might be below the visible panel). Find "Mobile Hotspot" within this list.

4. Add to Quick Settings:

Tap and hold on the "Mobile Hotspot" icon and drag it to your desired position within the Quick Settings panel.

5. Confirm:

Tap "Done" or the "X" to exit edit mode and save your changes.

I already have the icon on the quick panel. The issue is when I tap it it doesn't turn on or off.
It used to work.

@BLuvly Have you tried turning the phone off and on?

Have you tried wiping the device cache partition? It wipes out incompatible or outdated cache information. It does not erase any user data nor applications.

To wipe the device cache partition:

1. Power off your device.
2. Power up while holding down the Volume up key and the Side key until the Samsung logo appears. 
3. An Android recovery menu will appear.
4. Use the Volume down key to scroll down to Wipe cache partition.
5. Click the side key to select it.
6. Use the Volume down key to scroll down to Yes. 
7. Click the side key to select it. The Cache will be wiped almost instantaneously. 
8. Click the side key to select "Reboot system now"

Here is a temporary workaround that will give you a widget on your home screen to toggle your Hotspot on/off.

Open "modes and routines" app. Press the plus sign, under "If" select start manually. Under "Then" select connections>mobile Hotspot >on. Under "when routine ends" make sure it's on and set to return to status before routine ran, and save the routine.
Go to your home screen and long press an empty section of your home screen. Select widgets at the bottom and find "modes and routines" and add one of the options to your home screen. Press the button once to turn on Hotspot and again to turn off.
