Active Screen time and pausing no longer working!

I have been using the xfinity app for a couple of years now with no issue. All of a sudden, I am not getting any active time information and pausing devices at the active time limit doesn't seem to be working anymore. We rely heavily on this feature to monitor our kids screen time. Please help!

Same here.

I've tried everything I can think of

From removing and readding the app , devices, profiles, cycling the active screen time in and off.

Restarted the gateway.

None have worked. In resolving the issue.

@comcast is this being resolved?

Hello @user_4dd678, and thank you for sharing your experience and the steps you've tried to resolve this. I was able to confirm our Advanced Techs are aware of an issue with pausing/unpausing devices using the Xfi App. There is no known workaround at this time, however, they are actively working to get this resolved as soon as possible.

I was able to call tech support. They ran a few tests and made some changes(not totally clear on what it was). After my gateway restarted, everything is working as it is supposed to.

I have done all the above and nothing is working. This just happened after we just updated our modem. We rely on this to monitor our children. I can't even direct message so that page is removed. When I called the two people said they would have to send a tech person out to our house....that makes no sense. @Xfinity Support can this be resolved? I would really like answers not we are going to send a tech person out who came out and told us nothing was wrong with our equipment.....equipment may be fine but we have added profiles to put a time limit on our children's screen time to be told they haven't even been online when we know that is NOT accurate...Please help!
