Xfinity App Device Deletion

The app is not allowing me to delete devices which are no longer connected to my network. What should I do or what do you recommend to resolve this?

@Wills78 Thank you so much for posting in our great Xfinity Forums! Our great community is here to help with your questions and comments.

Have you been using the Xfinity App to pause or forget the devices on your network.

1. First you want to disconnect the device from your home network.

2. Then open the Xfinity App and log in

3. Next push on the "Connect" icon at the bottom

4. After that choose "... Device Not Connected to Network"

5. Select the device you want to forget

6. Choose "Manage Device Details"

7. Scroll to the bottom and touch "Forget Device"

Sometimes we forget to disconnect the device from the network before we try to forget a device. Remember to "disconnect" the device from your home network first.

Let me know if this helps.

Believe me I have everything you have written and it doesn't work. After going through all the steps it gives me a prompt that says, "Something went wrong: That device could not be removed. Please try again later." The devices are disconnected in case you were wondering.

How long has this been happening? Have you uninstalled and reinstalled the Xfinity app yet?
