Comments on Virgin TV Control for Android

★☆☆☆☆ chris woolacott · Aug 28, 2025
Used to be good for years, but in the last week it was an utter disaster, now if I try I get security passkeys, email verification, all completed, but never get to log in GET IT SORTED VIRGIN
★☆☆☆☆ David Gamble · Mar 29, 2026
Unfortunately redundant now the 360 box is in my house. The app gets stuck in a doom loop of login failures and authentications, and then doesn't work with the 360 box. Can't understand why Virgin haven't brought out a 360 update, or 360 specific app. Very disappointing.
★☆☆☆☆ Rhodri Evans · Dec 15, 2025
I'm guessing this app will be obsolete soon with the phasing out of V6 in favor of 360. In the meantime it is incompatible with the new Virgin O2 passkey. I had to go into my account on a web browser and ensure that password is enabled as a login method, then reset the app clearing all data. Eventually after doing this repeatedly I was able to log in. Initial error message: Authentication Failed Please contact your system administrator for assistance regarding this error. Adapter: Unknown

App doesn't even work! You sign in it won't allow you to go passed the login keeps saying there is an issue and to try again

A must-have app for all Virgin TiVo & V6 customers

The Virgin TV Control app means you can control your TiVo or Virgin TV V6 box from anywhere in the world, wherever you have an internet connection with WiFi, 3G or 4G.
The Best Bits

As a Virgin TV customer, this app lets you:

• Manage your recordings – set up a Series Link+ from anywhere in the world when
you’re connected to the internet
• Control your TV – if your TiVo box is connected to the same home network as your
device you can turn your mobile or tablet into a handy remote control
• Speed up the way you search and browse – search using your device’s QWERTY
keypad instead of the remote
• If you have a Virgin TV V6 box powered by TiVo you can stream selected recordings to
your device
• The app connects directly to your TiVo or Virgin TV V6 box so that you can see if there
is a recording clash or storage space is low
What you need
• Be a Virgin TiVo or V6 customer - note that Virgin TV 360 customers can use Virgin TV Go to manage recordings
• An Android mobile or tablet running Android OS 8 & above with WiFi internet in the
UK
• Your My Virgin Media username and password

For security reasons, and to protect the rights of our content partners, the Virgin TV Control app cannot be used on jailbroken devices, where unauthorised modifications have been made to the operating system.
