Xbox Smartglass hit mobile phones just a few years ago to provide a second-screen experience while users played their Xboxes, and Microsoft recognized it was time to move along in its natural progression.

The Xbox One Smartglass Beta app has hit the Play Store, and it allows users to send feedback to the developers and preview new features.

I thought that app had been on the play store since some time just after launch?

The smartglass app is cool. Used it on Dead Rising and it called me through the app to tell me of a side mission. I didn't finish the game but I know there is more

I will be downloading it tonight.

It is confusing because i have it on my phone right now. Unless its something new. I didnt read the article yet

Xbox One Smartass has been available in Google Play store since before the X1 launch.

Guys.. The new app is the BETA version with the new DVR and Remote control features and ONE GUIDE. There are 2 versions now in the Play store. The standard and the BETA.

that would explain a lot of things

Yeah, this is the BETA version of the app, with enhanced featured. OP should update title.

But it's really good, can control your DVR with it. Which is awesome.

Must be a fantastic app if not even users with Xbox-themed avatar/signatures knew it already existed.
