Now that most people are more engaged in mobile streaming, it is not surprising to see most cable companies venture into the mobile platform. Xfinity Stream is Comcast’s answer to this growing competition. However, unlike other leading streaming services today, Xfinity Stream is not a stand-alone app. It is important to mention that Xfinity Stream is only available for Xfinity Internet or cable customers. The app is generally more of an extension or additional way to watch the content that you’re already paying for with your existing Xfinity service plan. Interestingly, the app is loaded with a great number of features that every Xfinity customer will enjoy. This app can seamlessly turn any screen into a TV and giving you access to a great number of channels, on-demand shows, movies, and more.

How Xfinity Stream App Works?

Using the Xfinity Stream app is not complicated at all and it basically works the same way with other streaming apps. To top it all, the app comes with a very simple interface that users can easily navigate and explore. Simply download the Xfinity Stream app either from the Google Play Store or Apple App Store to get started. Once downloaded, tap the Get Started button and simply input your Xfinity account details. Tap Yes to accept the Terms of Activation and you are good to go. The app will prompt you immediately to your home screen which instantly displays all the recommended shows, shows that you have recently watched, and more.

The left panel of the screen will give you bigger options. It allows you to view all the recordings you have saved (including those you have scheduled, and contents that you have downloaded or purchased). It also gives you access to Live programs and on-Demand shows. You can also browse content by genre including TV shows, Movies, Sports, Networks, Kids, News, and Latino. The app also came with a Parental Control system. Take note that the channels or programs you want to watch must be included in your subscription package or they might be available as downloadable contents.
