A phone hotspot is fine for one person who sometimes connects a laptop. Once two or more people, or a laptop for work, depend on one phone, a pocket WiFi does the job better. It gives unlimited data to up to 10 devices for €4.90 a day, it has its own battery, and nobody has to stay next to the phone that shares.
This page is for people staying in Marrakech who are wondering whether to share one phone’s data or rent a router. A phone hotspot is also called personal hotspot, tethering or “partage de connexion”.
What a phone hotspot is
Apple describes Personal Hotspot as using the iPhone’s mobile data connection to create a temporary, portable Wi-Fi network that other devices can join. Android’s own help says a phone can share its mobile data with up to 10 other devices this way, and adds that some mobile carriers limit tethering or charge extra for it.
So the number of devices is rarely the problem. The limits are the data you are allowed to share, the battery of the phone doing the work, and the fact that everyone depends on that one phone.
Phone hotspot or pocket WiFi: side by side
| Phone hotspot | Our pocket WiFi | |
|---|---|---|
| Data you can share | Whatever your plan allows for sharing | Unlimited, no sharing cap |
| Battery | The host phone’s battery | Its own battery, up to 8 hours |
| When the host goes out | Everyone else loses the connection | The router stays, or goes in a bag |
| Who needs a data plan | The phone that shares | Nobody: any device with WiFi connects |
| Cost | Your plan, or roaming charges | €4.90 a day for the router, whatever the number of devices |
The three limits of sharing from your phone
1. The sharing allowance
Travel eSIMs sold as “unlimited” are usually unlimited on the phone only. Holafly’s Morocco page, read on 30 October 2026, says you can share 1 GB a day. One video call can use a large part of that. We explain the difference in can you connect a laptop to a travel eSIM.
2. The battery
The phone that shares does the radio work for every device. Android’s help page advises plugging the phone in while tethering to extend battery life. In the medina, that phone is usually also your map, your tickets and your camera.
3. One phone, one place
If the person with the hotspot goes to the hammam or the souk, the others are offline. A router can stay in the riad for whoever is there, or travel with the group in a pocket.
When a phone hotspot is enough
- You travel alone and only connect a laptop now and then.
- Your home plan allows tethering abroad at a price you know. Check it first: our guides for UK phones and US phones in Marrakech show what each network says.
- Your stay is short and you mostly use the riad or hotel WiFi.
When a pocket WiFi is the better choice
- A couple, a family or a group who all need data during the day.
- A laptop for work, with video calls and cloud sync. See remote work in Marrakech.
- A travel eSIM with a daily sharing cap.
- Phones that are locked, or that do not take an eSIM.
