No wifi schedule option in new Vodafone Broadband app

[nichocouk]

The new Vodafone Broadband app (updated from Google Playstore after 20 Nov 2023) works fine, except the option to turn on/off or edit the WiFi schedule has disappeared. I know I can access that by logging into the router but that makes the app extremely slimmed down and frankly uninresting. Should I uninstall it from my phone, or is there any prospect of seeing that option again very soon?

Thanks!

There have been a number of complaints of loss of functionality from the app, but I've just freshly downloaded it from the Playstore and all the functionality still seems to be there, including the schedule.

Just what version do you have, mine is 4.6.7

Thank you Jayach. Interestingly, when I look at the version number, it says 5.0.0. Which is higher than 4.6.7 (version number appearing on Google Play). Weird! In any case I can't see the option to schedule WiFi.

Update

I have uninstalled the 5.0.0 version, and downloaded again 4.6.7 from the Playstore. I am now back to the "old" version which worked fine and had all the features I was interested in. It looks like Vodafone removed their recently updated version from the Playstore following the deluge of complaints about the loss of functionality. So for now I consider this is resolved. I hope that if the app is updated again in the near future, this will be managed more carefully by Vodafone.

Old version cannot be opened unfortunately, Google forces to update before opening the app.
