Tech Article 4/22

Comcast will let you replace your cable box with an app!

  • Let you bypass the cable box and get Xfinity service directly on their television sets or streaming devices
  • Will serve up live TV and on-demand video
  • Just as Comcasts X1 cable boxes do
  • Customers who use this app save up to $10 a month equipment fee they would otherwise have to pay to rent their set box
  • This app is similar to the apps currently available on smartphones and tablets, which Comcast says have been downloaded 23 million times.
  • The new app more closely mirrors the experience you get from your cable box 
  • They're expanding the availability of its services to mobile gadgets and smart TVs as customers increasingly use those devices for media.
