Streaming app doesn’t allow me to view last viewed channels

When using the Xfinity streaming app on my 2023 LGOLED television, when I try to look at the last viewed channel the Xfinity app just goes into a searching mode. If I try to go back to the main menu or the home screen and select Xfinity streaming app again it just goes into searching mode and never comes out. If I try to go to the mini menu on the right hand side of the screen and select the channel, it stays in a searching mode. What I found is I have to log out of the app itself and sometimes most times turn the television off and wait a minute and go back in  just to change a channel. I’m looking for some help

I believe that this issue might have started right after Xfinity made a change to correct the Closes caption issue that was happening EVERY time the Xfinity streaming app started up

I have tried the typical troubleshooting steps. I’ve unplugged my modem. I’ve unplugged my router so I have rebooted both of those devices. I was currently on a couple of weeks away from the house so I unplugged all of my televisions also so they have been rebooted yet. I continue to have the same problem if I’m watching a channel and I wanna go back to a previous channel on the remote, I would hit down arrow to see last viewed, and when I would try to go to that channel, I end up with the dots in the middle of my screen just waiting until I find I have to reboot the television again   it’s quite annoying trying to go from one television program to the next because you have to turn your TV off and wait for Xfinity stream to reload in order to do it. Please contact me with more steps
