The design has two pages, one for toggling and one for settings. Would
it be possible to consolidate them onto one page? It could look
something like this:

toggle switch
text field
wifi name entry box
password entry box
password visible switch

Then we could make it so that you can't turn the hotspot on until both
network name and password are filled in and possibly even make it
impossible to edit the text boxes while the hotspot is enabled.
