Mary,
As far as I know, the ability to store individual favorites does not exist in
the TV apps. For Live TV, you can choose specific filters by double tapping the
Refine Filters button, including a filter for programs with audio description.
Yes, the For You screen shows items such as recently recorded content, recently
watched channels, recently watched shows, popular movies and popular TV shows.

Hi David,
I just got that new Comcast app. It looks usable. But I do have one question.
Do you know of a way to narrow down the channel listing. There are so many
channels, most of which I don't care about. I would like to find a way to make
a custom channel listing that would have only those channels I want to look at.
Do you know of a way to do that? With the regular Xfinity box, you can have a
set of favorites, where you put all of your channels that you like. I didn't
see a way to do that in the app. I see "for you", but that looks to be a
listing of all the stuff my husband has been doing. It isn't our favorites list.

Regarding the newer TV app, the grid, once you get used to it, should be easy
to use. To get to the grid, press the "main menu" button and choose either Live
TV or All Listings. Once the grid appears, the names of each channel are
presented vertically, down the far left of the app. To the right of each
channel are the various times for a particular program. Currently, you can't
just flick right with one finger to move from one program on that channel to
the next and so you'll need to swipe with three fingers to the left to keep
moving the grid forward, using explore by touch to examine the shows which have
focus. This is an area I hope to see improved in future versions of the app.
Beyond this, the app's accessibility is quite good and I think you'll be
pleasantly surprised as to how nice it is to use.

Hi, Karen.
Regarding watching TV on your phone, I recommend switching from the TVGO app to
the newer Xfinity TV app, which VoiceOver will identify as TV once it's
installed. The TVGo app is being discontinued and it's recommended that people
use the newer TV app. Its accessibility is constantly improving.

I recently made a change from Direct TV to Comcast. I really liked the Direct
TV app, but we moved, and Comcast gave us a better price.
Now I'm trying to figure out the Comcast Apps. I have the TV Remote and TV Go
apps on my phone. I can't seem to find a TV listing by date and time. I'd
like to be able to look ahead to see what's on later in the day, or the next
couple of days. I did find a grid, but couldn't make any sense of it. Any
Suggestions?
Thanks.
