What’s New
We’ve enhanced VoiceOver text to boost app accessibility. Issues around rentals have also been corrected, so your shows and movies are always ready to watch when you are.
What’s right with it at this point?
I loved this app. It had some really idiotic things going on with it, primarily that they took away the record option. They originally touted their service as record from anywhere, now you cant.
Plus, you pay an arm and a leg for service, and they advertise you can watch from anywhere, but turns out its none of the major networks if you arent on your home wireless. This wasnt the biggest problem when you could record, but now you cant watch AND you can’t record. A part of me understands as they don’t want customers sharing service with other people. But a workaround for that concern seems like it should be easy to implement...they ask you to name your device you connect with...well, they could allow you one device that you could access from anywhere and that’s it. I certainly wouldn’t waste that on someone else.
And lastly, I dont know if they did an update or what...but on both my iphone and my Chromebook I can only access 3 channels now when I have hundreds and was able to access them all last night. I cant search for any show or network as its all “not found”, none of my scheduled recordings are showing, I can see the nightly shows but when I click on them I get an error message. I uninstalled and installed it again, and restarted but that didnt help. And again, this is on two different o/s.
Don't get xfinity
Xfinity tv is horrible. I continue to have issues with sound not working for three days now. Xfinity representatives are ill trained and clueless and don't know how to fix the problem. After hours on the phone of trying to resolve the problem. There is still no resolve. It's a waist of money to pay for service that the does not work and representative are inept to handle.
I am highly disappointed with my xfinity app. I am unable to watch the shows live from the app. I was told many different stories. One man said I can only use the app if I am using xfinity wifi, which is asinine. If I am paying for cable I should be able to get cable without being forced into buying another product. Not only that their was no notification about a change to a service I was able to access just yesterday. Another representative said that they would not be able to resolve the problem for 3 days which is absolutely unacceptable. If I am paying for a service. I should be able to use that service at all times and issues like this should be resolved in a timely manner. Calling and speaking to customer service was a waist of time. I highly doubt the people that I was communicating with knew what they were doing. DO NOT GET THE APP OR BUY THE CABLE SERVICE BECAUSE THE COMPANY DOESN'T CARE ABOUT THE QUALITY OF THEIR SERVICE OR THEIR CUSTOMERS.
Developer Response,
Hello. I suspect you ran into the outage on all TV Go channels that started around 7pm ET yesterday and was resolved around midnight ET. If you're still having issues, please let us know at http://forums.xfinity.com/t5/Stream-TV-App/bd-p/TVG-APP

I do have to say after reading some of the reviews I wasn’t sure how this would work but wow. It is great. I can watch any show anywhere in my house on multiple devices. Even my kids almost silly kindles can run this and they can watch their crazy kid shows. Haven’t had any problems with the way this works at all.
I have to say a lot of others seem not to understand or care how things actually work. They get upset if they can’t use it any way they choose. So here are some things I know and have found through simple research. Some things are in home only, not because Comcast is limiting your service. They are because that provider, NFL, espn, food network or whom ever has deemed it to be. And yes there are copyright protections built into the app so you can’t use your device to stream to another, even a projector or an Apple TV.
I will continue to use this for my whole family as long as I have their service and will recommend it to everyone I know.
