I have BT wifi at home and both my husband and I have Android phones , we have roaming disconnected and have just downloaded the BT app to connect to BT wifi hotspots thus getting free internet on our phones which is working fine. What I want to know is it ok for us to connect two different phones at the same time?

I've already looked on the BT site and it does say you can connect more than one device at a time but does that include phones? simple way is to ring them I guess , have I answered my own question? lol

    Or just try it and see!

    A phone with wifi is a device so unless it specifically says you can't use 2 phones then I'd say go ahead.

    i have bt total broadband at home and frequently connect both my laptop and my iphone (to stream internet radio) at the same time when at the flat i use when on call in another town via bt wifi app - i think i have also had an android tablet connected via same login at the same time as others if i recall correctly so it would seem no limit to number of devices connected via same login at same time - ( probably why i got email in july warning me i had used close to 10000 wifi minutes in july)
