@user_eyvutbqqqqq Thank you for making us aware the to go channels are working on your fire stick and fire cube. So that we don't go over something you've already done, can you please share with me what troubleshooting steps have you completed on your own?

I'm having this same issue on all of my firetvs.  Noticed it starting on Sunday.  Have uninstalled and reinstalled the Xfinity Stream app, cleared Dara, cleared cache, unplugged the tvs completely for a couple minutes to reset them, all to no avail.  All of the channels say they need to know where I am and to update location settings to high accuracy or battery saving, both of which are options for phones, not tvs.

I tried everything! It won’t let me watch local channels out of my home network. 

looks like you had this issue years ago when I look at all the thread on this site.

@user_eyvutbqqqqq When you say everything, does that include clearing out the cache and cookies from your fire stick? Did you try completing a power cycle on your equipment?

@user_eyvutbqqqqq Thanks for sharing these screenshots to help us get a better idea of what's going on. Just to confirm, have you activated the location services and adjusted to high accuracy?

@user_eyvutbqqqqq I have a link to share with the system requirements for our Xfinity Stream app https://www.xfinity.com/support/articles/xfinity-tv-app-requirements 

There's a section that says:*Available in-home only to Xfinity TV customers with internet. Which applies to Apple TV*,LG TV*,Roku*,Samsung Smart TV* and Xumo TV*

Are you in home connected to your homes Wi-Fi network using those devices?
