Getting error message: Upgrade failure. Please restart the application

Receiving this message when launching the Xfinity Stream App on all of my TVs.   I have a mix of Samsung and LG TVs and am using the Firestick 4k+ for streaming.  If I exit the error and launch again it will work, but the error returns next time I turn on the TV and launch.    I have cleared data and cache from the app but still get the error.

I have the X1 on my big TV in the living room and the rest of my TV stream. All my streaming devices are the ones that say upgrade failure.

Same here on multiple Samsung TVs with various model Firesticks after recent updates.  Complete uninstall/reinstall did not resolve.  A separate Apple TV box install is not seeing this, but I don't believe the same recent update has been pushed there yet.

Same thing here on two Firesticks, have removed and reinstalled the app, and still get this error on some restarts.

Same thing for me as well. Just started out of blue. Sounds like a software update is needed for the Firestick asap!
