Xbox Reviews

I have already filed a report on the online verification process and I unknowingly didn’t enter my recovery email correctly when I initially input my recovery account and since then to my knowledge I haven’t even got a response to confirm weather or not that I could switch my recovery account to the actual account I have also I don’t understand how the account I incidentally entered could even work for the fact that the account doesn’t even exist to my knowledge at least so please get back to me this time so I can use this wonderful app. One other thing that doesn’t make much since is that when I do enter my Microsoft email and password it asked for my account to be verified due to it supposedly having suspicions activity but won’t tell me what that specific action was nor does it give me any information at all about my activity or action that caused my account to me removed from the mobile app when I’ve had my this app account for over a decade since the this app 360 was my only console at the time. If anyone who isn’t from the Microsoft staff that has incite or knows of a way to fix this issue because I’ve tried everything including going to the this app support website that didn’t even help only because I don’t remember much of what I entered when I first upgraded to this app one since that was roughly 8 years ago I have a this app year one addition with 1TB of storage that I got for my birthday. So please let me know how I can resolve this issue.

Latest version has a bug where if you search for a game and then play one of its demo videos, if you X out of the video without pressing Stop on playback for it, it closes the video but the sound continues to keep playing for the rest of the video. No way to stop it.

The circle around the profile icon on the bottom toolbar isn’t properly centered around the icon. It looks stupid. Latest version has also introduced a bug where Candy Crush Saga shows up in the game list instead of Monster Hunter World. What?! 🙄 Go ahead, try a search. Type in Marvel and see what it shows under Games… then add ‘s to spell Marvel’s and see what the results change to. NADA!!! ZILCH!!! ZIP!!! Fire your search coder team! 🤦‍♂️ I’m being serious here. What search logic are you guys using?! Can’t find a single thing you search for! Why are you even listing non-console versions of games?! This is THE this app CONSOLE COMPANION APP!!! People aren’t using it to search for other platform games! What is wrong with your developers? 🙄 Also, why can’t I manage my account via Xbox , like why can’t I use it to redeem codes, etc.? And why can I install games to console but I can’t buy them via Xbox ? That seems silly… like you put the cart before the horse!!! Considering typing with the controller is a hassle on the this app, these functions would make it easier for the usability of the platform for the user. Please make it happen by correcting this craziness!

I’ve been trying to use Xbox for the three months but it’s a serious problem. Xbox has a bug where it won’t launch and you’ll be stuck with an infinite loading circle on your screen. After restarting Xbox well over fifty times it has refused to work so I tried reinstalling it and that didn’t work either. My second problem is that the party chat continuously cuts in and out making it incredibly difficult to communicate with people because I have ask them repeatedly what they said. I have a brand new IPhone XR so it’s not my iPhone. My internet is fine and I’ve even tried it with my mobile data and it still won’t work. I even had my friend try it too and he says it cuts in and out. Even when I unplug my head phones from my phone it still won’t make a sound until a few minutes later. Please fix this bug, it was working perfectly until a few weeks ago. You try to add new updates and try to make do more things but it shouldn’t need too. Your console is perfectly fine and your app was fine until you screwed it up. I love your console but there’s no need to try and battle with PS4 anymore. At this point its based on personal preference of the consumer and not whether the console runs faster or not. If they want a faster console then they can get the S or the X or the New one when it comes out. Stop trying to make change it. Xbox doesn’t deserve a 4.7 rating because it has so many huge bugs

Xbox is one of the most poorly written apps I have used. Microsoft is a fantastic company. The this app live functionality on their console system is superb. However, Xbox doesn’t function at all like its console counterpart. The “Active Friends” status is rarely accurate, even when you “pull down” to refresh status.

My friends and I love to play Forza using a racing wheel. Since the wheel doesn’t have a headset jack, we use Xbox to talk. On console, we can join each other’s game or party without an invite. It just works. In Xbox , it will not. We usually have to text each other to send an invite. If you join the party on console first, Xbox will not allow voice communication despite being in the party. If you try and send an invite, it won’t allow it because they are already a party member. So you have to leave the party, text your friend to send an invite, then you can finally talk. If you accept the invite, and Xbox errors out (message saying “something went wrong” which is often does), you are forced to kill Xbox , reopen it and if you click on the invite, it will not work because the invite is no longer valid. So a party member has to resend the invite. 90% of out conversations begin with the phrase “Did I mention that I HATE Xbox?”!

What’s even worse is Xbox used to work really well. It’s been horrible for over a year. Xbox makes Microsoft look bad.

I used to be able to navigate Xbox before the new update. I didn’t know there was one until I checked Xbox after a while and it looked garbage. The categories are all messed up, I can’t even find the game I play in the search bar for games, because it’s another version of the game but Xbox used to show it in the search. I don’t even know where any of the old gamer point comparison sections went or are located, and everything is watered down in a way that somehow makes it more confusing. My library says that I have one game in it, though I’ve never bought the game it listed, and the library doesn’t list the actual game I’m playing, even though the game is listed as something I’ve played recently on my profile. I can’t even see who my followers are, because I don’t know how to get tothat section. All in all, this update was utter garbage. The older interface could be a little confusing at some points, but this interface is even more confusing and terrible than the older one. I also had a glitchy sign in, where even though I put the right password, and the enter password screen went down, it would jump up again after less than a second of actually seeing Xbox . I had to uninstall and reinstall Xbox to fix that problem. I wasn’t putting in the wrong password, it didn’t say what I was putting in was incorrect.

i only play Minecraft here and there with my friends but i had stopped for a while so i need to go redownload Minecraft as well as this app. i expected i would need to sign in and so i did and i thought it was working but the pop up to sign into your microsoft account kept showing up. i would enter my password so many times and i would think it would work and it wouldn’t. i tried resetting my password and nothing happened. i gave up, but the other day i wanted to get on Xbox to friend request one of my friends so we could play minecraft. i opened up this app and it asked me to sign in again but i had forgotten the password i had changed it to a few weeks prior so i changed it again and made sure to remember it. i said i would try again tomorrow. it’s the next day and i signed in with my new password and the pop up came up repeatedly. i don’t know what to do at this point. this isn’t the only thing too. the one tile i did get it working it was super laggy and it even glitches me out of Xbox at one point. Xbox is also hard to navigate, it used to be so much better. i don’t know what you guys changed but stop changing things like sending pictures in chats and making Xbox look prettier. just make is isabel and fix the glitches. it’s super frustrating and i just wanna play games with my friends. thanks.

There’s a ton of problems with Xbox in the new update but theres lots of other people writing reviews so I won’t take twenty minutes of my day to go on a rant about Xbox because honestly it’s not worth it. However there is one thing that I absolutely hate about the update and have no idea why they got rid of it. You Literally Cannot Customize Your Game Picture Anymore. Nor can you send pictures to people in messages. Normally I wouldn’t care about this since I don’t want to change my gamer picture, however one of my friends in order to spite me used this update to change my gamer picture and now I can’t change it back, I have to use a default picture. Which in fact is a real bummer. I like to have the freedom to customize my profile in any kind of social media. And no matter what you say this app is undoubtedly a social media, you can text, send game clips,(used to be able to send pictures), you can talk, and some other things but people don’t usually use these because this app is a console and is generally used for gaming. I can mind the glitches with the new update but I cannot overlook the fact that they have completely done away with a key feature in the profile customization. All in all I believe they should scrap this new update and revert it to the previous one.

There is a bug with the this app Phone App after the most recent update that was rolled out. While talking in party chat on the this app Phone App the sound will randomly cut out on one or more people in the party with you. You can still see that those people are talking, you just can’t hear them, and I have also confirmed that those people can hear you even though you can not hear them. It is not an internet issue as it happens to me whether I am on the wifi or (disconnecting from wifi and) using my phone data. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling, still did not fix my problem. Own a brand new iphone 11 I got for christmas and using the headphones that came with, so it isn’t that my phone/headphones are super old or anything. This was not a problem until the most recent update for Xbox a few weeks ago.

This is as inconvenient as it gets for someone who relies on the this app phone app to talk with friends in party chat while we play, and is so frustrating that i have almost had to stop playing this app entirelt. To add to my frustrations i am running out of time to play EA access and Gamepass free trials with my friends because of this, and i know this app is going to give me zero compensation for this. Strongly considering selling my this app because of this situation if it doesnt get fixed SOON.

Xbox USED to be good. Key words being "used to." Before the latest update, the this app app was really good and I had very few issues with it. Ever since the new update, I have absolutely HATED using Xbox. Obviously this is my opinion right now, but I hate almost every single thing that has changed (and a bunch of my friends agree.) First off, Xbox takes longer to load in than it used to. Second off, the whole messaging / chatting with others is awful. Sending messages can be delayed a lot and sometimes not even send. You can't send pictures anymore. And also, if you have notifications on, it'll glitch over and over and over again whenever someone messages you (meaning even if you are on a chat with someone currently texting each other, whenever they text you, a notification will buzz at the top of ur screen.) This glitch is only fixed if u reload Xbox , and even then, after a few minutes of texting, the notification buzzing will still show up again. Another thing I hate is the online / offline thing. I don't like how when you are on a chat with someone, it says they are offline, even if they are actually online. It only says they are online on the home screen, which is very annoying. Honestly, the only thing I do like about this update is our captures all in one area.

Obviously this probably won't happen, but I feel like Xbox would be way better if the update was just taken off, and Xbox was reverted back to its old state.

I downloaded the this app App specifically for the remote play feature, but every time I fix one of the problems, a new one came up. (Bluetooth Controller connected to the (CONSOLE???) required then Bluetooth Controller needs to be updated then internet is “too slow” for streaming (which there’s no way to fix)) It said that I could do the streaming thing at home or something like that, but nowhere else. But my phone requires me to click ‘enable’ on the this app. But it won’t show up on the screen again. So I had to go to settings to try and test the connection again and now it doesn’t let me enable. And the first time, it said it could be enabled, but it never enabled. So then I try it again, then it doesn’t even show up on the screen. So I go to settings to try and manually do it. That’s when I come across all these different errors, forcing me to be unable to do it. I could get a 3rd party app for streaming and it would work better than this.

By the way, I understand that I have over 600 ping when I play games, but if I wanted to download the this app App for no reason (since all the useful features are gone), then I would give Xbox a 5-star rating. But I downloaded it specifically for remote play.

The this app app is amazing the first time you see it. You can access you account on the go and do so many things. However, Xbox ’s downfalls become apparent very soon. First of all, you need a wifi connection to access Xbox , it will not work with cellular data. So, the whole aspect of this app on the go is completely thrown out of the window. Secondly, you’ll be very luck if you can actually use Xbox . For at least one week out of the month Xbox just doesn’t work. You try to launch it, but you are met with either a blank green screen or a n infinite loading wheel. I’ve tried restarting, redownloading, and even costumer support, but nothing can fix it. Over time it will just fix itself and one day you’ll try to launch Xbox and it will just work for no reason just as suddenly as it stopped working. My final issue it the built in keyboard. this app has a wonderful system that detects the keyboard on your this app and allows you to type on your phone. This is great for multiplayer games with a chat system. However, like Xbox itself this feature is very spotty. Sometimes the keyboard on Xbox will just stop popping up and it won’t ever pop up for the next week to month. Then it will just magically fix itself again. There are also tons of little bugs that litter that app that at sometimes, makes Xbox completely unusable. The this app app definitely doesn’t deserver the 4.7 out of 5 that it currently has.

Normally I wouldn’t write reviews but Xbox was ok until this morning. I was trying to go on Xbox and it had me put my password, not so bad right? I was ok with it but after I put in the password it made me do it again and again so I decided to reset my phone. So, after I did that I went back on to Xbox and it’s was super slow and it still made me keep doing my password, so I went to go log out but, after I push any button it makes me do my password AGAIN oh and I did try to push the cancel button but the Microsoft sign in thing popped up AGAIN. Now on to the update. I HATE it the only thing good about it is where the captures are but you can’t change your photo, bio, or location anymore, I mean you might be able to but I have looked over the map. I guess the online offline thing is kinda good but like it’s hard to remember if u have it online or offline without checking which is fine I guess but still. But also, Xbox takes way to long to load now it was fine back before the update happened actually it was WAY better before it happened, so even if you guys wouldn’t change it back please do and patch the bug that isn’t letting me put my password in.

While the new look is sleek I feel the old layout was more user friendly but time will tell if it is. Now for as the reason of the low star rating is due multiple issues example of two issues first being the data and information for the majority of the time either does not refresh or show accurate information ie you can be on your console and see who’s on where as Xbox might show who’s on or it might display someone online but if you click profile or access a message they would display offline but if you go back to the friends list it will still display online another issue or lack of feature is they have removed the option of the store or game pass game with the new UI granted since the game pass as a separate app that is understandable for game pass although I think it would be nice to have a version integrated in Xbox that way users only need one app instead of two apps not to mention that the remote feature input rarely responds I could be trying to press a none stop and may 1 out of 20 time I could receive input

by Autumn._rain

I actually really like Xbox, it works for exactly what I need of it, chats and parties for a little while until I can use my console… the only problem I have with Xbox is when I’m using the chat feature, as the messages come through, Xbox sends out a notification. Obviously I want to be notified whenever a new chat comes through- but NOT while I’m already in the chatroom. This isn’t a major issue for me, since I can cut off notifications and just manually check the chats every now and then, it’s just a mild inconvenience is all.

Voice memos is just a feature I would like to see implemented into Xbox , Instagram & Snapchat have voice memo like features (example of it being possible to put into an app) and the console version is a handy feature to have, if it’s possible to use the mic for parties, then adding voice memos to Xbox version as well seems like the correct next step.

I’m not an app developer, and I know absolutely nothing about the industry, I am a consumer, and I know that honestly??- we really don’t care about comparing achievements on our phones, we want smooth, portable communication with our this app friends….

So,Me and my friends use the this app app all to the in order to change our profile picture lately but every time I go to change it and upload the picture I get an error saying we cannot upload “anything right now” please try again later. And that has been going on for a week and you haven’t heard about the problem either the error is just at my side and not anyone else who has the this app app. But I do advise I can say that can you please try to figure out what’s wrong and why we can’t change our profile pictures to the custom ones I recently just stayed up till 3:00 making a profile picture just to get The holy grale of my first error on Xbox . And I have a very stable internet connection and should have no problem doing anything WiFi related. If this app support or any Microsoft management read this report please try to get this done I know your dealing with a this app error we’re it shows everyone offline sometimes but once you fix that problem can you please consider on fixing this. Thank you for your time.

Overall, Xbox ever since the update looks and feels pretty sleek. However, there are a lot of smaller issues with it. The biggest issue that I have with it is that Microsoft removed the ability to change your profile picture from Xbox . There was honestly no point in doing this, since there was nothing wrong with it in the first place. Now, if you want to change your profile picture, you need to get a USB and plug it into your this app, wait for it to actually upload, and then you can change it. What was wrong with the old system of simply going into your camera roll on Xbox then choosing one that way? Another issue is that Xbox takes a decent amount of time to load, and sometimes won’t even load everything at once (such as your captures). There are also some smaller bugs, such as Xbox stating that people are offline when they aren’t. However, there are some good things about it (such as the addition of remote play), but in my opinion, they don’t outweigh the negatives. Overall, if you own an this app, you might as well get it, but don’t expect a perfect experience.

I LOVE Xbox. Never mind that’s an overstatement. I like Xbox. I myself am a second Generation gamer. My dad played the very first Halo, Halo: CE when it was on CPU. Now, I play Halo Master Chief and Destiny 2, as well as other iconic games like Rocket League, Apex Legends, Battlefront 2, and Minecraft. I LOVE gaming. Sadly, my WiFi cannot support the remote streaming. I am also disappointed that you cannot fully access the Microsoft store. There are some minor details that I wish Xbox had as well such as the craptastic controller that you can use on your phone. However, I do like that you can download apps to your this app remotely. You can also access all pics and videos remotely as well. Like my friend (Tag: Genxman212) will share his tags with me all the time through Xbox . Xbox is good for people who are on vacation or people whose jobs do not require constant attention like firefighters or police officers. Xbox needs a lot of tweaking but it definitely has lots of potential. My tag is stinkych33Ze shoot me a text and we can hop into an Apex Legends game. Please consider my opinion Microsoft. Peace out!

Ever since the update went live, I’ve been digging this new user interface and the ability to easily share your captures very intuitively and downloading games to your console before you choose to purchase it digitally or via disc, so you can play the game on day one instantly. However, there are some additional features I’d like to have in there as well. The this app Store isn’t in here to discover new games. Though searching for a game to download is easy, I think adding more detail, like the current store on this app One / Series X/S would be a plus. Next, the onscreen keyboard. I did hear that using your phone to type your message straight to your console was coming, but it’d be nice to incorporate that somehow seamlessly. And also for 360 games, I noticed you can’t download them to console yet? Not sure if that’s a work in progress, but that’d be nice to add alongside original this app games too. Other than that, I love this new design and can’t wait for many more updates to make this next gaming experience much better!

by Scumboldt

Where is the store portion of Xbox ?! I am trying to browse games and can only search, and when I search for “ghost” I get every game with ghost in the description, in no discernible order. I do not get titles with Ghost listed first. I have a huge tile for Minecraft on the top of my page. I would never play Minecraft. I’m an adult trying to spend my money, but you want to make it harder. There are no options to customize the layout or to put stuff I care about on the screen. I don’t care what my friends are playing. In fact, friends are what I’m avoiding by playing this app. Are you trying to remind me how much I miss society?

I am trying to buy a game! Are you making it harder for me to purchase through Xbox ?! I can see no way to browse for games. I’ve checked.

Did you guys acquire the five dumbest chimps you could find, put them in a room with crayons and a disco ball, then say “draw our new interface!”?!?! I don’t care what my friends are playing. I don’t even like most of my friends, but at least they didn’t design Xbox. This is AWFUL.

by Slipslopbigbop

The new updates adds remote play from your phone?! Uh what, google stadia is gonna get absolutely destroyed if this app decides to keep updating it. I have a base this app one and an iPhone XR and I was able to play some single player games and navigate the menus fine. Within reason obviously, there was a slight delay due to the nature of streaming it but it still felt very very very good to play once I got use to it. And tbh I wouldn’t want to play an intensive multiplayer game or anything like that would probably cause issues to arise like long loading screens and the sorts, as I said I’m using a base this app one so maybe the new generation doesn’t even have issues like that. 🙏🙏from the this app crew, Xbox doesn’t feel like a fan made companion app anymore, you’re able to physically operate your device and I’m pretty sure there’s even a remote feature for operating the menus of this app If you don’t have you’re controller. Ez I’m not taking Xbox off my phone unless they take away the remote play. Rip to other phone games. Rip to google stadia. 🪦

by AstralElegance

Xbox breaks down and has to be completely restarted EVERY time you receive a phone call or an alarm goes off on your phone. Xbox breaks down and has to be restarted even if you choose to ignore a phone call you receive! I literally NEVER write reviews but this application has been SO INCREDIBLY buggy I felt I had to give feedback. This is hands down the worst product I’ve ever used that is produced by Microsoft. The application also randomly shifts between using the speaker mode and using the hands-on mode when talking to people using the this app app making it incredibly frustrating when you are in the middle of a game trying to hear your teammate and all of a sudden your teammates voices are cut down to a whisper because your this app app messed up again. Bottom line, I got Xbox to be able to talk to my friends on this app live without a mic, and if you are trying to use the application for the same thing be prepared to deal with a lot of frustration. My advice, don’t use Xbox and just go buy a mic and save yourself hours of frustration dealing with one of the world’s buggiest apps. Yeah

by N0iSEA

The Microsoft Store portion is essentially useless for people who prefer to browse the games that are on sale each week. The only sale games it shows are the Games with Gold ones, which represent only a very small fraction of the sale priced games under “Deals” each week and it never includes the biggest deals and best games.

Microsoft has good sales on digital games but they strongly deter you from using Xbox to buy them with the poor design.

The big winner in this programming fail are Sony and Nintendo. I check all 3 digital stores each week and buy the games that are the lowest price. Since sony and nintendo actually have a deals section Microsoft has lost out on at least several thousand dollars just from me over the last few years when I bought games from their competitors. Had Xbox actually shown the Deals I would have definitely bought many of those games on this app One - especially since my PS hard drives (both external and internal) are nearly full because the PSN store sales are easy to view.

by Diagonalley

I’ve done reviews before and the same people issues are there. Messages from friends come up on my screen with the complete message for all to see. Doesn’t matter if it’s locked or not. So have have to set my phone notifications to not preview at all which therefore requires me to open up Xbox every time a I a generalized “this app notification” on my iPhone. Why can it go back to beeping with a discreet “ you gave a message from John Doe gamer tag”? That was the best way but it’s been a year. Next Xbox starts to randomly show all my friends offline whenever it wants to when I know do a fact they are on Xbox . Also we use to have time stamps for when a message came through Xbox now I have no idea when it was sent if I don’t hear the first and only beep. They do a lot of updates and such but I just want basic message functioning cuz that my main reason for using Xbox .

by PolarSpectram

You can always see who’s online from your friends list, and what they’re playing. Messaging works well too.

However; the ONE THING Xbox is absolutely advantageous over a controller for accessing your console with - does not work consistently. The on screen keyboard, lets you type quickly on your phone - much faster than using a controller. When it works, this feature is extremely convenient, letting you input text to your this app or games in time spans you never could without Xbox . But good freakn’ luck getting the keyboard on Xbox to come up when you have an on-screen keyboard on your console. It’ll work sometimes, and other times you can pull up the keyboard on your this app again and again and again - to have Xbox do nothing. Which, needless to say - is very frustrating. To have such a convenient feature work intermittently and be completely unusable at other times is maddening. If that singular function worked reliably, I would say this is a magnificent app. But right now; it just doesn’t.

by Yankees4eva69

I enjoy most aspects of Xbox except for two things. The store and playing your clips. I find it really inconsistent when you’re watching clips you have recorded. Sometime the clip will run from start to finish without interruption and other times it struggles with 5 seconds in. I have a decent connection and I find that even when i’m using LTE it still struggles to play smoothly. My biggest problem however is the store. I wish it was better about showing new games that have released. As apposed to showing the most popular games which it does. I know I can search specific game but i’m looking for those gems and I cannot find them if the store only shows the fortnites and the fifas of the worlds. I know the phone app shouldn’t be the place for discovery but anything is better than what they currently have. Including the dlc tab which is usually just occupied with mutiple dlc of the same game. Other than my complaints I like Xbox very much.

by Soloangel07

I really enjoy Xbox, you can view your game clips and share them, upload them, save them, and message through this app so much easier and all it’s really great and useful but one main thing that I hope gets fixed really soon, is a bug with parties. Imagine how annoying it is, you are in the middle of a game you are talking to your friends laughing then all of a sudden, you can’t hear them anymore, you look down on your phone (because that’s what you are using for the party) and your this app app restarted itself and it keeps happening, over and over. It gets really annoying. Friends have to keep inviting me over and over in the middle of their games because my this app app keeps restarting itself in mid conversation. So that’s my main thing but besides that’s it’s a really useful app and if you have this app I do recommend you get this.

by Odstfan6

I have brought this issue up not once, but twice before and this is the third time I am bringing it up. The screen recording. For the love of god please find a way to fix this. I have a YT channel named “ShisnoGaming” and all of my videos from about 7 months ago to today don’t have any game audio in the clips because I have had to record them off of the website from my mobile device. I have to do this because every time I screen record off of Xbox, the screen goes black and no audio plays. PLEASE FIX THIS. I was able to get audio from Xbox when it worked and I dont know why it does not anymore. I currently cant afford a capture card so this is my only option. I want my game audio back so bad!
Other than this problem, this is a great app and very convenient for usage so thats why my review is four stars.
Please fix this problem as soon as possible!

I love Xbox! It has all the essentials for an on the go gamer. There's only one small issue that I've noticed and compared to the rest of the amazing features, it's a relatively small gripe.

Nonetheless, the messaging system within Xbox works wonderfully but it also contains the only thing that bugs me. It's very time consuming to cleanup or delete old messages. Having to slide left and delete them all individually takes quite a while if you receive messages frequently. Also the difference in text color between a new message and a message marked as "read" is so subtle that it becomes difficult to locate unread messages when trying to cleanup notifications.

My suggestions:

Install a feature that will let the user select multiple messages at a time and delete them or mark as read.

Change the color of the font on new messages and read messages to something more drastic. Perhaps a green text for new messages and white text for read messages.

Overall, as I stated in the beginning, I love Xbox! And I believe updating the messaging system will only increase my enjoyment and ease of use for everyone.

Cheers!

PS - I pre-installed Destiny 2 with Xbox and I'm waiting patiently to regain my Light when the clock hits midnight! this app, the best place to play Destiny 2 hands down! Console exclusives don't hold a candle to our community. Find me in the EDZ, guardians. Gamer tag: Surelok

by Pandakid85

I absolutely love Xbox; I’m able to play with my friends, view clips easily, see who’s online and what they’re playing, and the messaging aspect was great... until it wasn’t. I wasn’t getting notifications even though they were on, and it was stuck on the last time I texted this person so I had to refresh it every couple of minutes. That’s not even the worst part unfortunately. Now, my messages won’t send and all my conversations are gone: they won’t even load and I can’t talk to my friends! This is the only way I can talk to most of my friends so I’m upset to be out of contact with them.

I have tried to reset my phone, and even deleted and redownloaded Xbox , but none of it worked. I really love Xbox and would love to give it five stars, but I can’t if there is a barrier of communication in the way. I hope you guys can get this fixed efficiently and hopefully stop this problem from occurring in the future.

by Metthroid

Xbox offers a lot of useful capabilities that I find very useful in my play. Everything works well enough that I have little problems when utilizing its functions. Some bugs are present, but everything has its kinks. These bugs are often fixed by simply restarting Xbox , or in a few cases restarting the this app it’s linked to. Anyone that plays this app should probably have Xbox, seeing as it’s both free and rather useful. The ability to see and respond to messages, even if you aren’t on your this app is a great ability. The ability to tell which friends are online by going into Xbox or having it send you a notification of when they get online is also a favorite of mine. And the ability to type and copy & paste with your phone makes sending messages and inputting commands a breeze. I recommend this to any this app user, there’s really no reason to not have it as far as I know. Great work, Microsoft.

I love using Xbox when i am away from home to view clips, read and respond to messages but there is one thing i believe would be an amazing addition to Xbox . We all know the this app one was designed to be the ultimate home console for both games an media, but how about security? I know the this app ones kinnect was discontinued however it could regain some popularity with the ability to view what the kinnect sees when you are away from home. I just recently adopted a puppy and currently am looking into security cameras for the house so i can check up on my boy when im away from home. It would be an amazing feature to be able to open Xbox and see whats going on in my livingroom. I doubt this idea would be implemented however if it was, i believe a lot of people will want to get their hands on the kinnect again. Aside from my suggestion, i love Xbox and if this idea is considered and applied, i would change my rating from 4 stars to 5.

I really really like smartglass. It's interconnected with Microsoft products and for the most part works pretty well. On the other hand, there are definitely some issues. Data on the console and data on the game are not always synced. You may have deleted a msg on console but that same msg may appear unread on Xbox . The remote function is iffy at best. Sometimes it will connect and sometimes it tells you to turn features on in the settings of your console. Not only that, the setting feature that it directs you to does not exist. Well it exist, but it is not setup to change device settings. And yes I am on the same network, in case you were asking yourself that question. Xbox also crashes ALOT. Leaving Xbox running in the background of my iPhone 6+ is a sure way to an app crash around the second or third reopen without clearing running apps. Regardless of these minor hiccups in functionality and usability, the this app app is likely my top 3 favorite apps. It's fast. It's responsive. It's involved. Furthermore, does exactly what I want it to do and that is to connect with online friends, family and game community. The bugs, to say the least, are neck and neck to tie last place on a long list of "Things that give me a headache each day." I'm sure an entry level software engineer could fix the lows with some testing. Later. And give me a job lol😐😬

The this app app is a good idea. You can message your friends, look at yours or other clips, and join a party. But it is really bugged and they need to fix the lag when you watch clips. It’s very annoying watching someone’s clip and then it freezes but the clip is still going. And it take a long time to load a clip. In my opinion, this app needs to allow an option when you watch a clip, you can change the quality to make it run smoother at least. At this point, this app really disappointed me with the whole this app industry when it comes to games. It’s like they don’t care about Xbox . In my view at least. Messaging in this app also has some bug. It says I have a message but I really don’t and when I do see one and I open it and back out, it still says that there is a message.
