Ratings and reviews

Hideous app. Not fit for purpose. Have a neurodivergent teen who struggles with tech safety & boundaries. Having the ability to block devices is essential. The app will tell me devices are blocked when they aren't, release devices when it feels like it. It causes huge conflict and unsafe situations at home. Have reset the router, uninstalled, gone through the Web page as requested...nothing works. Absolutely useless. Lots of token responses from Virgin to same issues on here. Not good enough.

Terrible app. Never reads blackouts when I literally cannot do anything in my bedroom. Reads great connection. yet Netflix won't even load, my mobile is using data in my own bedroom where it keeps disconnecting to the WiFi. I already own a pod and thats useless. App can't even find it when its plugged in, right infront of me. Thats Virgin Media I guess. Been with them for 15 years. Think it's time to move on.

With no explanation the App suddenly could not find the hub despite my phone being connected to my wifi network!!!. Hopeless So it finally worked and then Virgin decided to upgrade me from Super Hub 3 to Super Hub 4. Now the app cannot find the Hub despite the fact it is connected to my wifi network provided by the very hub it can't find!!!! I have rebooted the Hub countless times since I installed it on 4th May but the app still does not work. I have deleted the app and reinstalled but nothing
