TV Remote App - Proposal to Comcast

Since you removed the TV Remote app which had capabilities that the web TV Remote does not have, can you please consider enhancing the Xfinity Stream app with a small change? In the "Live TV" tab provide a radio button which allows the app to either stream live TV to the xfinity stream app OR changes to the channel on one of my selected TVs, just like the TV Remote app used to work. Since the streaming app also allows setting recordings, viewing recording schedules this would probably be a great way to satisfy customers like myself happy again, having used the TV Remote on a daily basis for many years.

Why was this functionality removed in the first place?

@user_08wyg9 The stream app did not have that function. The Xfinity TV Remote app was retired. The app is no longer available for download or use, and customers who have it installed on their mobile devices will be unable to use it and/or may encounter errors. Customers can use one of these options as an alternative to the Xfinity TV Remote app:
• Xfinity Web Remote 
• Xfinity Voice Remote
