The latest update of the app allows auto connection to the cloud again at the free sites. (like when o2 supported it before Sky took it over)

It installs a profile linked to your free account and allow 2 devices to be registered.

Just installed it and will test when out and about

Just been looking at this myself and was about to install it when it asked to install one part and that says this - 'Installing this profile will change settings on your iPhone' Smiley Frustrated

 

Is that safe? What exactly does it then do and will i still be able to access my other Wi-Fi's that i have already setup?

 

Very new iP5 user here so sorry if this is a stupid question but someone had to ask it Smiley Embarassed

It will add an additional wifi profile to your list of devices. It shouldn't change any of the others just in the same way as if you added a new wifi connection yourself.

The profile that installs allows automatic connection and is safe and secure you can see it in settings > general> profiles  and not in the usual wifi tab.
