Streaming app freezing on Fire TV

@XfinityEthan the tv is running Fire OS 6.2.7.8. This is the only Fire tv in the house and it is the only one experiencing this issue with the streaming app. The issue is isolated to the Xfinity streaming app and it’s very frustrating. My Samsung and Roku televisions are running the app perfectly. This television is less than 20 feet from the gateway. 

This seems to be a common issue with FireTV, so please advise me to a solution. 

Can you tell us what kinds of troubleshooting steps you've already taken such as rebooting your gateway, checking wires/connections, or forgetting the Fire TV from your network and reconnecting it?

I have rebooted the gateway several times, removed the television from the home network, re-established connection, uninstalled and reinstalled the streaming app several times. The television works great with every app except the xfinity streaming app. It freezes so bad. Is there an update to this beta app?

Thank you for the update, it definitely helps us narrow down the issue.
