Those of you aiming to buy the Xbox One can now download a companion SmartGlass app onto your mobile device.
Released or updated on Tuesday for iOS, Android, Windows 8/8.1, and Windows Phone, Xbox One SmartGlass ties in with the Xbox One in a few different ways. You can use the app as a remote control device for the gaming console, letting you navigate the dashboard to play games or open various applications. The app also lets you browse the Web via the Xbox One using your mobile device.
Xbox One SmartGlass can act as a second screen, displaying or supplementing the action appearing on the console. Users of the app can also search for and select games to play on the Xbox One, track gaming achievements, get a helping hand on games, watch clips of games, and chat with friends.
But Xbox 360 owners need not feel left out. Microsoft also offers an Xbox 360 SmartGlass app.
The $500 Xbox One hits stores on Friday.
