Xbox beta

Xbox beta is the beta app for accessing Xbox services from your smartphone. As it is a beta version, you can use it to access the latest updates before anyone else.

From the Xbox beta app, you can talk to friends via voice or text chat, review achievements, manage screenshots and recordings of your games on social media, buy new games, and receive alerts when a new game you're interested in is released. If you don't want to be disturbed, you can go offline.

Beyond using the app as a complement to your Xbox, you can also use it to play your console games online. To do so, you'll need to turn the app on or put it in instant-on mode; you'll also need Xbox Game Pass Ultimate or an Xbox Live Gold subscription.

The section for sharing content that you've recorded or photographed while playing is very convenient, as you can easily share it on any social network. The app also notifies you when the content you've recorded is available, which is obtained directly from the console.

In short, if you have an Xbox, using the official Xbox app as a complement to your Microsoft console is practically essential.
