Recommended plan

Duration
7 or 14 days
Data
10–20 GB

Daily video calls + hotspot for laptop work runs ~1.5–2 GB/day. A 14-day, 20 GB plan covers most workations.

Will hotspot/tethering work for video calls on my laptop?
Yes β€” most LTE.app plans support hotspot at no extra cost, with bandwidth that handles 720p–1080p Zoom/Meet video calls. For 1080p HD calls all day, size to 20+ GB to avoid hitting any caps.
How much data does a typical video-call workday use?
A full workday with 4 hours of video calls + email + light browsing on hotspot uses ~1.5–2 GB. A 7-day, 10 GB plan covers a typical workation week with margin for evenings.
What if my hotel Wi-Fi is too slow for calls?
Hotspot to your eSIM is the fix. Most LTE.app plans deliver 30+ Mbps in major destinations β€” usually faster than budget hotel Wi-Fi. Smart Coach can confirm your speed before a critical call.
Can I use this in a coworking space?
Yes β€” useful as a backup when coworking Wi-Fi is throttled. Many remote workers tether their laptop to LTE.app while colleagues fight over the coworking router.
