Access Personal TechPro^SM through the Pocket Geek Home^® app

Your first step is to download the app from your device's app store. Once the app is installed:

Register your account: Select CenturyLink as your internet provider, then enter your email address. We recommend you use the same email address that is connected with your CenturyLink account. The app might bypass this step if it recognizes the email address on your device.
Add devices: You'll see an option to do a WiFi scan. This allows the app to scan for all devices connected to your network. You can then select from the list which devices to add to Pocket Geek Home. You can always add more devices in the future.
Get support for any device: Select the device you need help with from your personal list of connected devices and then look at a how-to guide, get troubleshooting steps, or connect with Live Support.
