Ratings and reviews

Can't even log into the app on any of my Android devices. Enter my email address, get forced to click an email verification link, then it accepts the verification in my browser, and then when I return to the app it takes me right back to the login screen and makes me do it all over again. I am trying to use the app to check my awful WiFi download speeds to see if I qualify for an extender, Virgin say you have to use this app, but the app is unusable. Very frustrating.

Update: Reply from VM Connect is wrong. You "cannot" pause/remove devices from accessing the Hub 3.0. You can only view the devices you DO have and want connected. How do you disconnect devices old and/or no longer used from the WiFi? This app is useless. You pause devices and a couple of days later, you find that their connection has resumed without you doing it. And, you can't completely remove devices you no longer have and/or own. So, the point and existence of this app is completely lost.

Useless App.....doesn't work now like the other users Can't log into the app now ( it worked before the upgrade) on my Android devices. Enter my email address, get forced to click an email verification link, then it accepts the verification in my browser, and then you return to the app it takes me right back to the login screen and makes me do it all over again ! deleted the app and reinstalled it again still the same issue !......Helpdesk aren't being "helpful", so I have given up on Virgin
