Enable & Disable Alarm from xFinity App

The xFinity Home app no longer works and redirects you to the new xFinity app.  I have the new app and still have access to my cameras and smart devices, but there is no option to enable/disable the alarm, which was a KEY feature of the old Home app.  Does that ability exist in the new app?  If not, is that on the roadmap?

Hello @user_mb1224 thank you so much for taking the time and reaching us here on our Xfinity Forums! Currently, the Xfinity App does not have an arm/disarm function for Xfinity Home Security. We have no information currently about when this will be added, but we appreciate the feedback if this is a feature you'd like to see in the future.

Thank you, but that is a CRITICAL loss.  You deprecated the original app and removed a primary function of the app with no replacement.  Due to the loss of this, I have to consider other options for Home Security without  that feature.

We can certainly understand your feelings on this, @user_mb1224, and will keep this in mind for future updates to the Xfinity App. With Xfinity Home Security, you still have( or at least should) have both a wireless keypad and Touchscreen controller to arm/disarm the system, while the App will give you that functionality to still see all equipment active in the home.
