Xfinity App has reduced functionality following Tech Appointment

Last week I spent significant time talking to various web-based and call-based representatives until I finally received a technician appointment. The technician arrived 10/20/24 and took some actions to moderately improve my service (replaced coax connectors and swapped out the xFi modem/router). 

Immediately after the appointment concluded with the tech, I noticed that large portions of the Xfinity App were no longer available. There is not "connect devices" section under my account. There is not "devices" section where I can click on wifi devices and view stats or change settings. When I try to connect my xFi Pod the app crashes completely. 

This *feels* like a company response to my constant feedback about poor service. I understand it might not be, but I cannot explain how the app changed so significantly when the most recent app update was a month earlier in September, and this change in the app was instant. 

Is this Xfinity trying to get me to buy a newer Pod? I'm not going to do that if I crash the current app when trying to add one. 

I'm lost and tired of talking to customer service for hours on end. This should just work.

Hey there, user_e52040! Thank you so much for taking the time to reach out to us here on the Xfinity Forums. That certainly is not the experience we would expect for our customers to have. Have you attempted to delete the app, add it again, and log back in? Have you attempted to access the available options on a computer via xfinity.com/myaccount?
