How can I fix the TV App-00116 streaming error?

Ensure your device meets the minimum system requirements for Xfinity. Close any other apps that might be running in the background on your device, and try opening the Xfinity TV app again. Unplug your router and modem, wait for 60 seconds and then plug them back in. Try to update your router firmware. Restart your device and try again. It’s possible that the issue was just a temporary glitch, so restarting may resolve your problem.

1. Update your Xfinity app 

2. Clear Comcast cache 

When you clear all data, your apps are reset, and you will be signed out of all accounts. If you’re using Xfinity on a browser, clear your browser cache and cookies. Clearing your browser cache and cookies is different for each browser.

3. Use a VPN 

If you aren’t already, try using a VPN. There’s no denying the immense benefits of using a VPN client while streaming. A VPN works by masking your IP address with an external server’s address so that any website or app that restricts access based on location cannot tell where you are.  A VPN can solve this issue if the TVApp-00116 error is because of a geo-restriction. This is because a VPN allows users to access any website or app they want, regardless of their physical location. SPONSORED
