To ensure you are using the most up-to-date version of the app, please complete the steps below.  Please note, you may be able to log in after any of these steps, so it may not be necessary to complete all of them.     

Please be advised for optimal performance, Google Chrome must be installed on Android devices, and Safari must be installed for iOS devices.

  • Go to your app store - Open your device's app store and search for BCE Connect. If an update is available, please update the app to get the latest changes. 
  • Mobile data - Ensure Mobile data is switched on your device.
