xfinity stream app missing local tv
Hi, I have used the old xfinity beta app for a few years to watch local channels on a Roku TV. Since they upgraded to the "xfinity stream" app, all local channels are gone from the available live tv section. I can find them on the phone app listed as "tvgo" and it will stream them but they do not show up on the Roku app.
What changed? If I can't get my local channels I don't need the service.

I too noticed this yesterday. Can't seem to find anything saying why we now do not have access to those channels. It's the only way I watch xfinity tv and I also need them in order to continue my service.

Same issue. Called xfinity who tried to do a reset. Didn’t work. Called back, tech support finally told me it was a “national issue” with xfinity. Hope it gets fixed soon since I’m missing out on some preset recorded programs. I’m just glad I kept my cable box. It’s the only way to get local channels. I have a Roku tv.

As of this morning 8/21/22 in South-Central PA, the Stream web portal, the app for my Android phone, and the Partner Device (formerly "beta") apps for my Roku and my Samsung TV seem to be working normally again. Broadcast stations are back, and the wacky channel numbers have returned to the correct numbers.

I, too, have this issue - I have lost my local channels using the xfinity streaming app on my roku device. I will not keep xfinity without local channels.

Mine disappeared in the Xfinity Stream app for my phone and Roku as of last night. Makes no sense. Has anyone had resolution and if so, what did you do?

The channel line up on my Roku disappeared last night and has not shown up. I am in Louisiana, so it looks like a Xfinity national problem due to the posts.

I spent 2+ hours in chats and on the phone with xfinity support this afternoon without any resolution yet. One rep did acknowledge it was a known issue.

I just checked my Roku (2:55PM central time) and all of the channels are now live and working. Hope they keep working.

I am now 3 1/2 hours with chat and live agents, the last chat agent just dropped after asking me to reboot my modem, and no change. I am obviously frustrated.

Hopefully everyone will get back up and running soon. I didn't reboot my modem, but I did sign out of the xfinity app and rebooted my roku several hours before it started working. I am not sure if that had anything to do with fixing the problem.
