xfinity app on iphone - doesn't show mobile data usage

When I use the Xfinity app on my iphone  to check my mobile data usage, I always get the message:

"Sorry, something went wrong.  We're unable to display you details right now.  Please try again or come back later."

I've "come back later" for several months now and nothing has changed.  I've tried it from 2 iphones -- same problem.

I tried it on an old Android today and it works fine there. 

How can I get it to work on the iphone that I actually carry with me?

Hello, @user_1852ab. Thanks for posting on our Community Forums for assistance. To access your Xfinity Mobile data you would have to select Services > Mobile > Mobile lines and data usage. That should take you to the Current cycle information and list the data by phone number/device. Are these the steps you are taking? Where are you getting the error message?

That is exactly what I am doing.  That leads to the error message.

I appreciate you confirming that, @user_1852ab! Please uninstall the app, restart the phone, and reinstall the app. Are you still getting the error message when you try to access your Mobile data usage?

That’s a very good suggestion, but it hasn’t worked in the past, and it didn’t work today. 

other observations:

- does not work on the two iPhones I have tried - an 8 and a 7 (both purchased via Xfinity)

- does work on an old Android

So does not appear to be caused by my account settings or privileges. 

i might be able to test on an iPhone 13 later.

I appreciate you giving that a try, @user_1852ab! It's odd that it works on the one Android device. Are you able to view details when you log into the web version of your account online

I can view the data through a browser - on PC or phone. 

just tried on an iPhone 13 and it get the same “Something went wrong” message.  

Doubtless there are others with this problem, even if no one is reporting it.

Thanks for sharing, @user_1852ab! Is your iPhone 13 up to date with the latest iOS?

Yes, the iPhone 13 is up to date.  

The problem might be in the app itself, not on the backend or the connection. 

if I turn off WiFi and cellular and then click the link for mobile data usage, I get the same error message.  Seems like the app isn’t even connecting to the backend for this request. 

other functions work, just not this one.
