Virgin Media’s free WiFi app finally comes to iOS

WiFi Buddy iOS App

One of the perks of being a Virgin Media customer is gaining access to the company’s suite of mobile apps. They let you make landline calls and watch TV on your smartphone, but also connect to thousands of free WiFi hotspots all over the UK. Unfortunately for iOS users, WiFi Buddy, the provider’s dedicated wireless app, has been Android-only since launch. That’s now changing after Virgin Media finally deemed Apple fans worthy of free WiFi and has made the app available on the App Store too. Once installed, you’ll get access to over 22,000 The Cloud hotspots (thanks to Virgin Media’s deal with Sky) in places like Marks & Spencer, Wetherspoon, WH Smith, Pret A Manger, Greggs and other popular locations — useful, if you’re trying to save your mobile allowance or you find yourself in an area with poor signal.
