What is Reddit's opinion of Xbox beta?

The Android beta app, I'm in the US.

Check out the phone app, you'd be surprised how easy it is to find and install anything in seconds, I use it all the time. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.microsoft.xboxone.smartglass.beta

Try the beta version of the app instead. I've been using it for a couple of years now, and it tends to work better than the "stable" version.

uninstall it, and download the xbox beta app, normal app aint been working for me for ages beta one, works like a charm.

Nope you can download the app here : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.microsoft.xboxone.smartglass.beta&hl=en

You have to download the Xbox beta app. Then when It is finished downloading open the app and on the top right you will find a Xbox symbol click on that and it will say something "remote something". Then you should be able to console stream. (BTW you might have to connect your Xbox to your phone again)

Oh nice

Also, is this the app I gotta use?

Sorry if is a stupid question, I'm still figuring how this works

There is/was a bug with Android app scaling in the Beta and Dev channels, so I thought it may have something to do with that, but not sure then since you said it's also there on the Stable channel.

Fwiw, console streaming with the Xbox beta app works fine on my Pixelbook.

So with new functionality of Xbox Store, You can predownload games that You don't even own. This also applies to FIFA, so people with slower bandwidth won't have to wait for download completion :) All You have to do is search for FIFA 21 in store on App, and click "Download on Console"

Yes there is. If you have an android phone, install the beta of the Xbox app. The feature is new and has just been introduced there.

Play store link to the beta app:

The new Xbox beta app on Android supports remote play.

It's not available on iOS yet though. Probably caught up in Apple's approval process.

That app was only for the xcloud/console streaming preview, and is no longer supported.

Cloud gaming is now accessed via the Gamepass app, and console streaming (remote play) is in the new Xbox beta app.

If you have the Xbox Beta app all you need to do is open it, go to "My library" (on the bottom, second icon from the right). Tap the green button "Connect" and it will guide you how to connect with your xbox.

I am having the same problem. I'm using an Xbox One X controller (Project Scorpio branding, model number 1708), and Android 11.

In the Game Pass app, I'm able to navigate the menus and choose games using the D-pad or the thumbstick, but they're not recognized by the game itself. If I hit the center logo button while a game is running, a "Stop Playing" or "Never Mind" menu comes up over the game, and I'm able to use the controller to choose between them. Choosing "Never Mind" returns to the game without the controls being recognized anymore.

Also, I've downloaded the Xbox Beta that came out today that allows an Xbox One owner to stream their box on the same network to an Android device. Using the D-pad or a thumbstick in the app at all crashes the app.

For XBox try the Xbox Beta app. I had problems with the non beta app. Couldn't log on.

For PS I'm not sure what's causing it to not log on.

Sorry to be that guy but this update actually released 2 days ago.

Google Play Store displays the release dates for updates:

For some reason my xbox doesn't seem to have the community stuff in yet, even though its enrolled and opted into the preview program (and has been for a long time). However it's worth noting at least that the Xbox (beta) Android app had the club options in there for me. Though as I'm in the preview program anyway, that could be why. Worth checking out anyway if you're struggling to find the club itself on your xbox.

Edit: Added link for beta app

Sweet, thanks for the extra info!

If you haven't yet, can you also try using the Xbox Beta app? I'm not confident it will work however if it does not, you can leave feedback via the app which is important. Once you've done that, let us know. Also, is the Gamertag in your flair your Gamertag?

Let us know! :)

Hey Nate_Dogg23 -

Is it an Android or iOS tablet? If it's Android, try downloading the Xbox beta app and see if that works. And definitely check out /u/Some_Stoned_Dude's suggestion of checking your two-step verification settings as we've seen that cause sign-in issues with the app.

Keep us posted! :)

If you're not in the Preview you download the Android beta app, or the Windows 10 beta app

Sorry, I remember that fixed that for me during the beta program, others tipped too. Hopefully you'll find a fix soon. Did you try installing the Beta version of the Smartglass app ? (I think android have it too, using WP myself).

Edit: here's the app - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.microsoft.xboxone.smartglass.beta&hl=en

It gets features a lot earlier and works just as well

Here you go!

When I first got the Smartglass beta you had to have the actual link to it in the Play Store to get it. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.microsoft.xboxone.smartglass.beta

I'm using Xbox Beta... https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.microsoft.xboxone.smartglass.beta

If you haven't seen it, we have a lot of troubleshooting over here: Connect and troubleshoot Bluetooth on your Xbox Wireless Controller.

Here's some quick things I can think of to try:

Generally, in this case it sounds like you've already covered the basics so I would recommend the following order: Unpair the controller, restart the phone, pair it again and try again.
If the issues persist, try clearing the app storage from the Android app settings and trying again.
I've also seen in the past with some Android devices, flipping the phone to the opposite landscape orientation resolves issues with input (example)
If you're on the Xbox beta app, try the Xbox app instead (or vice versa).
