I have X1 but no voice remote (preferring the old remotes, much easier to push the buttons...). Is there a method to activate peacock premium other than using the voice remote?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Welcome to the Xfinity Forum and thank you for posting your question here. To access the Peacock app on your Xfinity X1 box, follow the directions below.
You can get to the Peacock app by:
To start using Peacock, you’ll need to enter an email address.
When you press OK to begin typing an email address, your Comcast email address will come up. Select it by pressing OK, or press the down arrow and select Enter new email to use a different one.
To enter a new email address, use the arrow buttons with the keyboard that pops up, then arrow down to Continue. Press OK.
You’ll see a confirmation that you’ve got access to Peacock Premium.
You’ll then be taken to the Peacock home screen.

Thanks for the quick reply; that worked fine and was very easy.

If you have Xfinity X1 you have the Peacock app in the Apps section. You do not need to have a voice remote to follow the steps in this thread's Best Answer, any compatible X1 remote control will allow you access.
Please let us know if you have any additional questions.
I have the Peacock app on my main tv with the voice remote, but my other 2 tvs access xfinity beta streaming app via a Roku setup, e.g. using a Roku remote. When I go to the apps section of Xfinity Beta Streaming on a Roku tv, the Peacock app doesn't appear in the list to add it. How can I access Peacock on a Roku tv?
when I looked yesterday, Peacock still has no 'channel' in Roku.
