FAQs

On which devices can I watch StreamSaver™?

  • If you signed up for StreamSaver™ with an existing Xfinity TV subscription, you can watch Xfinity StreamSaver™ content through your TV Box.
  • If you signed up with an existing Xfinity Internet subscription — and don’t have a TV Box like Xumo Stream Box or Flex — you can watch content on any third-party device that is supported by Netflix, Peacock, Apple TV, Disney+, Hulu, and HBO Max.

On which devices can I watch NOW StreamSaver™?
In addition to the top streaming apps, NOW StreamSaver™ includes NOW TV. You can watch NOW TV through the Xfinity Stream app on the following devices at this time: Xumo Stream Box (leased or purchased), Xfinity Flex streaming TV Box, Xumo TV, Apple, or Android mobile device, FireTV, Chromecast, Apple AirPlay, and Roku.

You can also watch through the Xfinity Stream website on your browser at xfinity.com/stream.

For more on compatible devices, see Xfinity Stream app minimum system requirements.

Can I access my StreamSaver™ offers before my Xfinity or NOW services are installed?
Xfinity or NOW Services must be installed and set up before you can activate your streaming subscriptions included in the StreamSaver™ offers.

If I cancel Xfinity or NOW Internet or Xfinity TV service, will I lose my StreamSaver™ offer?
Yes, StreamSaver™ requires Xfinity Internet or TV and NOW StreamSaver™ requires NOW Internet or TV. If either service is canceled, you will no longer qualify for the respective StreamSaver™ offer.

When I watch the apps included with my StreamSaver™ offer, does it count against my internet usage?
Yes, these apps are internet-delivered services and will count against any Xfinity data plan, if applicable.

I signed up for StreamSaver™, but I forgot my username or password. How do I find my username or reset my password?
For assistance with your app credentials, you’ll need to contact the applicable third-party app directly: Netflix, Peacock, Apple TV, Disney+, Hulu Bundle, or HBO Max.

I already have Peacock Premium as part of my package (NOW TV, Sports & News, etc.), but I get it for free with my Membership Tier. How does this work?
The Peacock Premium included in your bundle is part of that package, but as a Platinum or Diamond Xfinity member, you’ll continue to get Peacock Premium at no cost — no matter which package you move to, as long as you maintain your tier status. Our goal is to make sure you have access to all the great things that Peacock Premium has to offer!
