Welcome to Mr.Forex's tutorial. Trading on MT4 for iPhone is very convenient, but the login interface can be a bit hidden for first-time users.
Many beginners accidentally tap "Open a demo account" after downloading the App, resulting in an official testing account that cannot be used for trading. Or, they fail to find the server because they didn't input the full name when searching for the broker's server.
This guide will teach you step-by-step how to correctly log in to your broker's "Real" or "Demo" account on iPhone (iOS).
Next, tap the "New Account" option at the top.
Please make sure to select the second option: "Login to an existing account".
Please enter the full server name provided by your broker in your email (e.g., "Pepperstone-Edge01"), do not just enter the company abbreviation. Once found, tap on that server.
If the login is successful, the screen will automatically jump back to the "Settings" page, and you will see your name and account number appear at the top.
This is usually due to two reasons:

Troubleshooting Login Failures
Problem A: Shows "Invalid account" after logging in?
If the account list shows a red "Invalid account" message (as shown below) after you log in, it means the login failed.
This is usually due to two reasons:
- Wrong Password: Please check if the case sensitivity is correct.
- Wrong Server: This is the most common error on the mobile version. Please check your account opening email again to confirm if you should choose Live01 or Live02; even a single digit difference will cause a failure.
Problem B: Why can't I find my broker's server?
The search function on the iOS version can sometimes be sensitive.- Advice: Try typing just the "first few English letters" of the broker's name, do not type the full name, and let the system automatically list the options for you.
- Note: Ensure your internet connection is normal, otherwise the server list cannot update.
