Streaming app not working

The Xfinity streaming app is not working. I get a message that says upgrade failure, please restart the app. I have done EVERYTHING. Hard reboot, uninstall and reinstall the app (many times), unplugged everything, including fire tv and Xfinity gateway, forced stop, cleared cache and anything else i could find. TV is up to date, also received this message on another tv. When i log into Xfinity stream it says no devices are streaming. I need this fixed!!!

I am able to go into the settings and force stop the application.  After that, my app works. Unfortunately, I have to do that each morning.

Same problem with Xfinity Stream app on Firesticks on Samsung and LG TVs.  All prescribed reboots, deleted app and reinstall, and firmware’s all updated on everything.  It’s a bug with Xfinity and Amazon Firestick.  Only temporary fix is to force stop the Stream App or restart the Firestick.  Every time you power off the Firestick and power it back, then open the Stream app, the problem reoccurs.

We have been getting the same error for weeks now. Kept hoping it would be fixed. Looking through these postings, Xfininity (as usual could care less).  It certainly looks to me to be incompatibility with Amazon Fire sticks.  We also have an Amazon TV cube, getting same error on that.  We have four tvs the only one we don't get the error on is the only one that does not go through an Amazon product.

I’m using fire stick and Roku on three tvs. So tired of xfinity app FAILS!  Why do I even try the fixes?  It’s never a ME problem!
