Favorite Channel Functionality Gone after Updating Streaming app on smartTV

There doesn't seem to be the ability to save and/or view favorite channels anymore.  I don't want to have to favorite shows or sports teams.  I liked my list of favorite channels.

Good morning @user_32k184. 

Are you not able to Favorite channels on the Xfinity Stream App in general? Or are you experiencing this on a Mobile device or a TV specifically?

@XfinityJon​ I just updated the app this morning.  Very different look.  It does not give me an option to add or view favorite channels.  This is on my LG smart TV.  I haven't updated the app on phone yet.  The app on my phone still has "filters" that show my favorite channels.

Okay, I will take this feedback forward. Otherwise, have all other features and functions been working for you?

Okay, thank you for letting me know. Our team will continue to monitor this. As of right now I am unaware of a workaround. But since this update has just occurred it is possible that may be something that has changed.

I know longer have favorite channels and the channels are all different. I have to search through all the channels now and there are duplicated channels.

Yes, this recent app update (2.183.1 on my LG TV) is terrible.  The only selection on the Guide is “All Channels” - there is no longer a “Favorites” filter.  The “Watchlist” is NOT a substitute!
