De Xbox One mei-update wordt uitgerold door Microsoft aan gebruikers. De update biedt de mogelijkheid om berichten via de message app te verzenden en ontvangen. Dit kan zowel tussen Xbox One als Xbox 360 gebruikers. Daarnaast kun je de console opstarten en afsluiten middels de SmartGlass mobile app. De gehele changelog is als volgt:
•Voice Messages – You can now send and receive voice messages from the Xbox One messages app. This is the No. 1 feature requested in the Friends and Parties area on the Xbox Feedback site > “Add audio message …”
•Power On/Off from Xbox One SmartGlass – The Xbox One SmartGlass app for Windows, Windows Phone, iOS and Android are being updated to let you power your Xbox One on and off when your devices are on the same home network as your console.
•User Selectable Power Mode – We are also altering the initial setup experience on Xbox One worldwide to enable you to select your preferred power mode between Instant-on or Energy-saving mode.
•Dedicated Servers for Party Chat – We will start to expand the availability of the party chat relay services beyond preview members to a broader audience as we continue to fine tune the feature and scale out the servers needed to support party chat relay services.
