Enjoy Xfinity Tips and Treats this Halloween

October 30, 2018

Costumes, check; candy, check; pumpkins carved, check. Make your Halloween night even more FANG-tastic with these Xfinity tips and exciting entertainment features to help keep your home smart, safe and haunted:

Be on the lookout for ghouls and goblins with Xfinity Home: Curious as to who’s at your doorstep? With live video monitoring, you can easily keep an eye on your ghostly visitors. Access to your cameras is available via the Xfinity Home app, online, as well as right on the TV with the X1 Voice Remote — just say “Xfinity Home cameras.”
Control your Halloween lights from the palm of your hand. With the multitude of decorations strewn throughout the house, running around to turn them on and off can be rather cumbersome. A simple solution is to automate them using Xfinity Home and Xfinity xFi. With our “Works with Xfinity” program, you can control lights, plug-in décor and other devices directly from your phone or tablet via the Xfinity Home and Xfinity xFi apps.
Don’t get spooked by dead zones: All homes are not created equal and sometimes architectural design and building materials can impact your connection. If dead zones exist, consider adding WiFi extenders like our xFi Pods. xFi Pods are mesh wireless extenders that plug into an electrical outlet, and they pair seamlessly with our xFi Wireless Gateway and xFi Advanced Gateway to help blanket your home with WiFi.
In the mood for a Halloween scare-fest? Press the mic button on your X1 Voice Remote and say “Halloween” to kick off the ultimate Halloween moviethon! You can even keep the Halloween scares kid-friendly by setting parental controls or keeping your kids in the Kids Zone. Can’t agree on what to watch? Sign-in to the Xfinity Stream app from your mobile device or tablet and enjoy two movies at once from the comfort of the same couch!
