A report earlier this week indicated that Microsoft’s new Xbox app would come to iOS with support for streaming Xbox games to your iPhone. The app is now available in beta, and The Verge has a hands-on look at how it works.
First and foremost, what’s important to note here is that the new Xbox app is not the same as Microsoft’s xCloud streaming game service. Here’s how the two compare:
- Jun 28, 2021 After a short invite-only beta period, Microsoft has announced that all Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscribers can now enjoy Xbox Cloud Gaming on Mac, iPhone, or iPad. To play, simply visit.
- Jun 27, 2016 Microsoft's Xbox app has still not made an appearance on Mac, whilst it's currently available on iOS. Some deem this to be a tactical move by Microsoft to limit the functionalities Mac users are.
Download the 360Controllers app from Github. Take note of which release is compatible with your version of macOS. Install the package and Restart the Mac. Connect Xbox controller. Once the driver has been installed, follow these steps to connect it. Open System Preferences. Go to the Xbox 360 Controllers preference.
- The new Xbox app lets you stream games from your Xbox One console to your iPhone
- Microsoft’s Cloud service lets you stream games directly from servers, no Xbox One console required.
Microsoft and Apple have engaged in a public dispute over whether or not streaming game services should be available through the App Store, with Microsoft balking at Apple’s stringent requirements. The new Xbox app is a new solution that at least brings remote gaming capabilities to Xbox console owners.
The free Xbox app is the best way to stay in the game—wherever you like to play.Download the new Xbox app and stay connected to friends & games.Easily share game clips & screenshots to your favorite social networks.Use integrated voice and text chat with friends on console or PC.Play games from your console straight to your phone over.
The Verge details how the app connects to your home Xbox One console:
You will be able to access an Xbox console over Wi-Fi, or even an LTE or 5G connection, too. As this app takes control of your home Xbox, you can remotely start your console outside of your home. The Xbox will start up without a sound or the Xbox light at the front, and when you disconnect, it goes back into standby after a brief period of inactivity.

In addition to playing games from your Xbox on your iPhone, the new Xbox application also allows you to download and share game clips and screenshots, manage settings and storage, and delete games.
Here is a short video showing how the Xbox app works on iPhone, including how to connect directly to the Xbox One console and play:
There’s no public release date for the new Xbox app for iPhone users just yet, but it should be available soon. The beta is running through Apple’s TestFlight platform, but there are currently no open spots.
