Just updated the My Vodafone iPhone app. Followed the on-screen instructions to turn off Wi-Fi so the app can identify my and link to my account but it keeps saying that it can't identify me and to make sure I have a signal. I have a full-strength 3G signal and have been trying for nearly an hour, but still no luck.
Anyone else having the same problem?

I updated too and it can identify me either. This app has just been rendered useless.

You have to persevere it took me about 30 mins for the app to finally recognize my phone.

Thanks guys. Yes, it finally worked for me after a couple of hours, although I've seen the same message again since - but it managed to connect (eventually) after clicking Try Again.
I think that this is a more descriptive message than the "there is a problem, please try later" (or something like that) that the old version of the app used to give.
Since both the old and new version seem to have the same problem I guess it's at Vodafone's end rather than the app itself.
Got to say that the new version is a big improvement with the Openzone Wi-Fi features ![]()

It worked once i switched WIFI off here over the WAP APN so i would make sure that you are not trying to connect via any WIFI connection, it did take a few minutes and a full close of the app to get it working though.
