New Xfinity Stream App – Missing HD Channel Filter
Subject: Xfinity Stream App – Missing HD Channel Filter
I recently updated to the redesigned Xfinity Stream app on my iPhone and discovered that a very useful feature from the previous version is missing.
The old app allowed users to filter the TV guide to display only High Definition (HD) channels. The new app appears to have eliminated that option.
For customers who have both HD and standard-definition versions of the same channels, this is an important feature. Having to scroll through duplicate SD and HD channels makes the guide unnecessarily cluttered.
Please consider restoring the HD-only filter in the new app. Ideally, it should be a permanent guide preference that users can select.
I would appreciate it if this suggestion could be forwarded to the Xfinity Stream app development team.

In addition, you used to be able to Filter for ‘Favorites’, that feature appears to be gone as well. Also, for your saved programs, you could see which shows you had partially watched and ‘resume’ watching them. That appears to be missing too! Please bring these features back!

Agree…needs to be restored. Scrolling thru all the channels starting at 2,3,4 etc to get to 800 makes no sense and is a shocking infuriating miss. Also, when you get to the guide, the teams for any game do not show in the guide! We are scrolling looking to see who is playing, that info is critical and was there in the old version! Infuriating again

There were a bunch of missing features in this update…poor execution and extreme negligence at their job. Everyone involved at Comcast in this update should be fired including the top executive responsible for overseeing their Stream app. The HD Channel filter was just one of many features lost in this update - it would be very easy to add this back as well as having shows marked as watched in your show history. Basic stuff.

Now having used the new app some more, I’d rate it a minus 10! It has taken a major leap backwards for no apparent reason. It’s as though the app developer had never looked at all the features on the previous app. I won’t waste my time outlining the add’l missing features but I’m not even seeing Scheduled programs any longer. Maybe it’s there but if it is, it’s well hidden. Also the manner in which Recorded programs are displayed it just awful compared to the previous version. Any chance of restoring the previous version would be most appreciated.
