Anyone have a working Xfinity Stream app for Android TV?

by brecoco

There have been a few posts in the past on this, but none in the last month or so. Does anyone know of a working apk that you can sideload successfully onto an Android TV?

Comcast does. They actually demo'ed it on an Nvidia Shield TV at some convention. Then it seemed to be shelved when the FCC got their new republican chair, who said he wouldn't be putting pressure on cable companies to provide apps for non-provider hardware (not meant as a political statement, that's just the truth of the matter).

Comcast did indicate that it might be a later option, but that they would actually charge a fee for using the app. (yes, really).

nope, I've tried numerous versions on my Shield and nothing works. Only work around it to tab cast from the Stream app off a web browser.

Don't think they'll ever push it cause it eats in their bottom line.

It's on the way. You can use the app on some roku devices now.
