That's why staying up-to-date with your device’s operating system (OS) is crucial. Picture your device’s OS as the digital armour protecting your device and, by extension, your financial information.

Now, let's delve into why keeping your device’s OS up-to-date matters:

  1. Enhanced Security: Regular updates of patch vulnerabilities helps to optimise Be U's security features and ensuring your financial information is safe from cyber threats.
