Dear Xbox, I hope maybe one day you could update the Xbox remote control in the app so it's more precise and is a lot faster! It's very slow at the moment and I would love to use it to browse Netflix and Hulu faster. It's just very unresponsive and it takes a second when you swipe left or right for it to respond. Thanks!

Seems like a fun enjoyable concept. I just can't get it to work. It rarely connects with my Xbox and when it does, it crashes shortly after. I gave it 3 stars because I do understand it is just the beta and I'm very excited to see where this goes. Also taught me that my xbox controller has bluetooth abilities, which I didn't know! Just needs some bugs ironed out..and maybe a privacy setting or something? I noticed another xbox nearby that isn't mine and was able to look at all their games etc...

This app used to work flawlessly, now I can't get the simple remote screen to come up and it will no longer connect with my console. I hope this bug is fixed soon as this is what I need when streaming videos. I'm am going to try the non-beta version to if it's a beta issue or something else. I'll leave a review on that version as well, hopefully it will work because like I've said this has worked very well in the past and its disappointing that it has stopped.

A great start, and so far is much more appealing visually than the older app. However, it does crash pretty randomly whenever you try to do something too quickly, or if you use it with a gamepad. Also, I love achievements, but they seem to not be in this version. While I'm sure this is temporary, I would love to see them get more of a spotlight in future updates.

Captures work better than they used to, but don't open to full screen. The app does a poor job synchronizing with active consoles in pretty much every regard, such as party management and notifications. The remote option is nice to have but recently stopped working with Netflix. There's a lot of potential for this app to really enhance the Xbox user experience, but there's a long way to go before it gets there.

This app is really coming in clutch, I haven't had time when I'm home to sit and play any games recently and I had just bought Crash 4, so when I have down time at work, I pop on here, turn on my xbox and connect to play remotely. Every now and then there's a bit of lag but it's gotten better with the updates. When you hit home on the controller, it opens gamepass instead of the home screen on Xbox which is annoying. The app will crash if you try to connect to your system before turning it on.
