Xfinity home app not connecting

I’ve had this service for the past four years, but in the last 6 months the home app has been trash. All it keeps saying is now connecting to your home/never connects. I can no longer arm/disarm from my phone…. ATP just disconnect the service 

I have also deleted and redownloaded the app and it still gives me the same message 

I can only view my camera from the regular Xfinity app but can’t disarm/arm or get any notifications when a door or window is open

I am sorry to hear of the app issue @user_iszeru. When the app won't start or has intermittent connectivity the possible causes may be:

  • The mobile device is not connected to the Internet.
  • The data in the device's cache is corrupt.
  • The site is down.
Troubleshooting
  1. Open another app to verify you have an active Internet connection.
  2. Completely delete and reinstall the app.
  3. Restart your device, then delete the application and install it again.
    • If you still can't open the app on an Apple device, please contact Apple for additional support by calling 1-800-iPhone (800-694-7466) or visiting www.apple.com/support/itunes.
    • If you still can't open the app on an Android device, please visit the Google Play Store at support.google.com/googleplay/?hl=en or contact your mobile service provider.

I am experiencing the exact same issues as the OP - including the past 6mo. timeline. I've tried logging out/logging back in, reinstalling the app several times etc. to no avail. The app literally doesn't work anymore. I have to go to the Xfinity app to access cameras, but ofttimes, I can only view live feeds because the captured clips (motion detection) won't load half the time anymore either. Imagine having home security that you can barely access at home and never when you're away.

I spoke to someone at Xfinity a few weeks and she said their team is working on the app. It’s not been working since December. This is unacceptable! It happened when I upgraded to a new iPhone, I was signed out of Xfinity Home app, and when I tried logging back in it kept giving me an Error 500 Error 501.

Hello @user_1k2073, thank you for your comment. Just to help narrow this down, what model iPhone are you using? Also, have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app? Lastly, are you able to access the Xfinity app without any issues, or do you see an error message there as well?
