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

I'm not sure I understand you completely, since most of your post is incoherent, however, if I get the point right, I believe you either have a defective device or some funky setting, as I have no issue using this function. I used my iPhone hotspot on my car stereo on long journies, obviously my phone screen wasn't on all the time. I also share with friends from time to time and don't keep my phone screen on while they're using my wifi. So it's definitely not the intentional way of it working.
