  1. Anyone else pissed Microsoft for getting rid of snap an app?


    I used snap an app nearly every single day that I used my Xbox One. So basically everyday. Then they updated today and apparently don't intend to bring snap an app back or replace it with a similar feature. ****, Microsoft? Why do must you this? Ya, I realize
    it had problems, but thats why you try and fix those problem. Why must you do things like this that make me hate you and regret buying an Xbox and paying so much into games and a live account instead of choosing PlayStation? Microsoft does not seem to know
    what they're doing a lot of time or what kinds of things have potential. At least that's what it seems like to me. Anyone else think so? Anyone else want snap an app back? All those who agree, let Microsoft know how you feel and let them know we want snap
    an app back or at least something that serves the same purpose.

    :)

    Read on cnet that Microsoft was getting rid of the need for xbox live to use netflix and hulu. Anyone else heard anything about that? Said it would happen in June but it hasn't. Thanks

    Side note. I know there's been possible hints at something replacing it, but that's not saying they will or even a guarantee that it's gonna happen. So don't bother pointing that out.

    I won't miss it at all I only used it to play music which sucked because it would shrink the POV. I'm glad they worked with the background music, which I feel should have been done long ago. As for Snap I hope they create a more smooth transition for a PIP.

  6. Ya, I definitely wouldn't of minded if they replaced Snap with a PIP or something. Instead they just did away with it and just kinda left it more or less open ended on whether something would replace it in the undetermined future. Which means I'm gonna have
    to rebuild the setup I took down because they removed one of the reasons I got the Xbox One in the first place.

    When I first got my Xbox One, I thought watching my hockey game on the snapped NHL app while playing a game must be what heaven is like! I have to admit, though, that the lag was bad enough that I stopped using it altogether (now I just plant my iPad on
    the coffee table and stream hockey while rather poorly multitasking in my videogame of choice. ha!)

    A tweet from Mike Ybarra would seem to indicate that they are not currently working on adding the PiP feature but that they are monitoring input about it at the Xbox feedback site. I'd suggest that if you like the idea of PiP functionality,
    head over to
    https://xbox.uservoice.com/forums/363186--new-ideas?query=PIP
    and add your vote to some of the suggestions created regarding the PiP feature (hopefully they will consolidate all of the similar suggestions into one big feature request at some point).

    same for me, I used to have youtube playing while I was playing a game. It frustrates me that we can't do it anymore since it was on all the time and there was no lag at all so I really don't get it. They should have try to fix it instead of completely remiving
    it.
