How do I change Wi-Fi Hotspot settings in Ubuntu GNOME 16.04?
How do I manage my hotspot connected devices or change the hotspot password? I can only see the Network Name, Security type and the Password but I can't seem to manage users or the network properties.

For some strange reason the default GUI network manager doesn't provide many options. But fortunately there's another tool which does. Open Terminal and run
nm-connection-editor
A GUI network connection manager should appear which will provide more options to manage your hotspot.

You may also try this CLI method to change your hotspot password as suggested by Akshar Patel.
