The main benefit of a travel router is creating a private network, and sharing a wifi connection. An iPhone can't do that, though Android phones can.

> though Android phones can

Interesting, as someone who has always used iPhones, wouldn't mind getting an Android phone for this.

Is there some app?

Sharing where? All my devices can connect directly thru to Wireguard vpn on my home network. Ipad, iphone, MBP, etc

A 5g phone tethering to your Wireguard connected MBP beats this out of the water

Some third party WiFis limit the number of devices. This gets around that limit.
