XBOX 2610.1.1: what changed

This build's notes highlight bug fixes and performance improvements. Those changes support an app that brings gaming conversations, console sharing, game discovery, and remote installation together on your phone.

What changed

  1. 01Bug fixes for the XBOX app

    Bug fixes are one of the two improvements highlighted for this release. XBOX covers several everyday gaming tasks, from reading messages and checking achievements to sharing console screenshots. Installing the current build keeps that collection of tools current while you continue using the features that suit your gaming routine.

  2. 02Performance improvements for everyday app use

    Microsoft describes this work as helping the app run smoothly. The practical backdrop is an app you can open for a quick message, a game invitation, or a look through Game Pass. These are existing uses for XBOX, with this build's performance work aimed at the app experience overall.

  3. 03Continuing work on the mobile experience

    This is a maintenance-focused release built around fixes and performance. For regular users, the reason to keep XBOX current is straightforward: it remains a companion for friends, games, and supported gaming devices when away from the console. You can keep using chat, sharing, and game discovery around your usual gaming sessions.

Should you update now?

Our callUpdate now

It is worth installing now for the bug fixes and performance improvements, especially if XBOX is where you follow gaming conversations or manage console-related tasks. The notes do not touch permissions, accounts, or payments, so this is a straightforward maintenance update for an app you already use.

On the listing, Update means this build is waiting for your phone; Open means you already have it or a newer one.

Worth knowing

Remote game installation works with your console, while clip and screenshot sharing uses captures from your console. Game Pass exploration includes personalized recommendations, new-game notifications, and games to queue for later. An update installed through Google Play keeps your existing app data and settings, so you can continue using XBOX without starting your setup again.
