With the Virgin Media Connect app, when running as a background app, it'll scan the available WiFi networks and then connect you to a VM WiFi hotspot if it's in range and a good enough signal.

There are two options there, it will either do it only when your WiFi is enabled by yourself, or you can choose an option in the Connect app for it to turn on your WiFi when in range of a good enough hotspot.

With the Connect app, you don't need to and can't manually select one of the Virgin Media WiFi SSIDs to connect to - because as you've seen they're not set up in the main Android WiFi list.

This is different to the way the WiFi app worked which did install the UK Virgin Media WiFi SSIDs in the Android WiFi list
