Xfinity Stream app launches on Apple TV
Comcast has announced the launch of its Xfinity Stream app on Apple TV 4K and Apple TV HD.
The app provides Xfinity TV customers access to their subscription, including all live, on demand, and DVR programming.
This is the debut of a redesigned version of the app, which had previously been available on other devices including Android TV. It features a new UI that is designed to simplify content discovery via a combination of editorial recommendations along with a personalisation algorithm.
This launch comes after Comcast and Apple brought Apple TV+ to Comcast’s entertainment platforms, including Xfinity X1, Xfinity Flex, and XClass TV, earlier this year.
Michael DelCiello, SVP strategic development, Comcast, said: “We are always looking for ways to enhance our entertainment experiences as the needs of our customers evolve – whether that’s expanding to new platforms, launching new features, or adding more programming options.
“With today’s launch of the Stream app on Apple TV, our customers now have a new device option for accessing their Xfinity TV subscription in the home, and they will be the first to enjoy a new, streamlined UI designed to make it easier to find something to watch – whether that means getting back to a favourite show or movie, or finding something new.”
