iOS has had an issue for years now, where if you lock the screen of the iPhone that using the personal hotspot, it will automatically disconnect for some stupid reason. Android doesn’t have this problem. I think the reasoning is, because iOS and android used to different hotspots. Say I use my sisters, android devices are hotspot, and that never happens when I lock my device. Can Apple use the same Wi-Fi hotspot very because this is really annoying

Another thing, can iPhones be connected to a wifi and be used as a hotspot for other devices at the same time? Androids can do it

no, it can't. That'd require 2-way wifi antenna, which the iphone doesn't have.

No but iOS makes sharing WiFi passwords trivially easy.
