There is no such screen known to me in the iPhone by default. Probably this from a third-party app.

You might have to turn on your hot spot for it to show up . It is apple 1st party app . I only have 3 third party app’s on my phone . Turn your hot spot on connect a phone to it for a minute . Go settings tap cellular then go down to personal hot spot n tap you will see this screen . Just now i looked did not see it and i turned hot spot on n off and it showed up i took screen shots n posted here for you . Maybe an old phone might not have it this is a 14 pro max and it came with the phone . Thank you for responding .
