I have a new Surface Laptop 7 with an ARM processor enrolled in the Xbox Insiders Program. The new home tab touted in the Xbox wire post is absent from my app:

This is an ongoing problem where the Xbox App on ARM PCs is severely lacking features. I only have the option to stream from my local Xbox or do cloud gaming. There are no home, my library, game pass, or store tabs.

Xbox takes 20 seconds to go from Xbox screen to account select. Then doesn't connect, days I'm wired when I'm not, even if I am, it doesn't connect. Last time took 3 (THREE) full hard resets.

This has been happening for years. How has this not been addressed? (I've seen multiple users making the same complaint over the years)

Xbox Requests: Capturing all your ideas, across all of Xbox, every week!

From PC gaming to Xbox consoles, and everything in between, if you have an idea or feature request that you want to share with Team Xbox, you've come to the right place! Add your requests below, upvote your favorites, and discuss and help refine the ideas of others here all week long.

Tips:

• We want your ideas for PC gaming just as much as we look forward to hearing your ideas regarding consoles, cloud gaming, mobile devices, TV's, VR, peripherals, and anything else you might think of; if you have an idea for Xbox, we want to hear it!
• Join your voices together! Try searching for others who have posted the same idea first and upvote theirs instead of posting your own, then feel free to respond to their comment to discuss or refine the idea further.

Rules:

• Requests for additions to backward compatible titles are subject to removal as the program ended in 2021 per the announcement here.
• If you have multiple ideas, be sure to post them individually rather than grouping them all into a single post.
• Please remember to keep the discussion civil and on topic! If you need a refresher, check the Subreddit Rules.

Be sure to check out the Xbox Insider Program Community Update November 2023 to learn more about what we're up to and what the future might look like!

Note: We've received a few questions about this recently, so we want to communicate it here as well. These threads are meant to be a way for the Xbox Insider Community to express their ideas and showcase what features are important to them. However, it is not an exclusive list of work items for the various engineering teams. This means there is no guarantee of implementation for any feature that is upvoted in these threads. The Xbox Insider Team communicates the feedback to the other teams that would be responsible for implementing them, but this is just one lever those teams might utilize to make a decision about where resources are applied. This is not meant to discourage voicing your opinion. We are striving to be more transparent with our processes, and want to reset expectations surrounding Feedback Fridays. Thanks so much for everyone that continues to participate!

While you can also find the top requests from all previous weeks in the Xbox Requests Recap, here are the top three Xbox Requests from last week:

• Reintroduce 12-month subscription options
• Require a minimum gamerscore to post in looking for group
• Add an achievement showing 100% base game completion

There seems to be a bug on the console where on the latest OS version, I can not add new friends. When I add new friends, I see "cancel friend request" like its waiting for the other person to accept. When the other person adds me as a friend, it sends a notification that they are now following me but my cancel friend request never goes away. They can see me on their friend's list but I show offline. I can't see them on my list on console but I can from xbox.com. They are on an older version OS. I am on insider.

Hey ,wassup ,i want to play with my friends minecraft bedrock but they have beta and i want to play with them .So, i clicked on preview and doesn't found minecraft windows 10 edition . Pls help me !!!

Hi there! I have read the news that some insiders will be able to test library streaming from November on game pass.

My question is, how can I join that?

I'm insider on both Xbox and PC Xbox app. Is there a specific insider thing I need to join or will is the insider build of the PC Xbox app enough?

Hi all,

I have a Series S and Series X in the same room.

One on the TV and one on a monitor on the opposite side of the room for family gaming sessions.

The series S is connected to the TV and can be controlled using the TV remote however, the remote has started controlling the Series X too meaning when I'm watching TV in the living room and my son is playing Xbox on the monitor, I'm either turning the console off or putting random inputs into the game via the remote. I've tried Google and searching and for the most part it's people complaining that they can't get this to work!

I don't have an issue with it on the Series as we use this for streaming and media however the Series X is solely for gaming and hooked up to a completely different screen on the other side of the room. It keeps happening, much to my son's annoyance when he's final 5 on Fortnite!

Help!

Noticed a post from 3 days ago stating that places have run out but 2 people I know of have managed to get spaces today but none are appearing for me. Have I missed it or is it due to me only getting the insider hub earlier today?
