I exchanged a few emails earlier today with someone and it seems to depend 
on your APN. If you have the VoLTE APN on your device you can get IPv6, 
including when tethering. The APN you want is nxtgenphone.

If you have a device where you can not edit the APN settings (iPhone) you 
can not use the IPv6 enabled VoLTE APN.

I suspect this will be enabled if they launch VoLTE on the iPhone.
