Virgin TV Control Android app keeps prompting me to upgrade to a 360

Every time I open the Virgin TV Control app on my Android phone, it prompts me that my 'TV Box needs a free upgrade' to a 360 box. Even though I click OK to dismiss it, the prompt comes back next time I open the app.

I did look into switching from our current V6 to Virgin's newer 360 firmware a few years ago when it first came out (I'm usually an early adopter of this sort of thing) but there seemed to be so many compromises and missing functionality that I regarded it as more of a downgrade with a pretty graphical front-end. Which unless things have changed dramatically since, then I still do - it seemed a classic case of form over function.

Anyway, how do I prevent this app nag screen from appearing, as I don't plan to switch to a 360?

Oh, and by the way, how can I find my old posts in this community? My profile shows 573 posts over the past 14 years I've been here, but I can only find the most recent year or so, and I wanted to check back on the 360 discussions that I had a few years back to see if anything much has changed. Thanks.

    I don't think there is a way to stop the nag screen appearing in the control app.

    As for historic posts they get archived away from public view.  If they don't show in your profile then they can't be accessed, (except by the moderators I assume).
