    Can you connect your Xbox 360 to the Xbox app?

    Hello!

    I'm a Independent Advisor. I will be glad to help you.

    Unfortunately no, the Xbox app is for Xbox One/Series only.

    Best regards.

    PLEASE HELP

    You can't connect the Xbox 360 to the Xbox App. Only the Xbox One can stream to the Xbox App.

    Long explanation:

    The Xbox One has specifically resources reserved to record or stream the console's video output, so you can stream to Beam or Twitch, or record your Gameplay.

    The Xbox 360 does not have these resources. And since compressing and streaming video requires a lot of CPU power, and the Xbox 360 is uses nearly 98% CPU resources for rendering games (the rest is used for Guide, Parties and background music), the Xbox
    360 also can't get an update to allow game streaming.

    In short: It's not possible to connect the Xbox App to the 360.

    Smartglass won't connect to Xbox One

    @chewy, just double checking that you are using the new xbox one SmartGlass app when trying to connect to your xbox one (verses the 360 SmartGlass app you used with your 360).

    "Xbox companion"

    1) Turn on your Xbox 360.

    2) Navigate to the Settings section and then select "System" to open the System Settings screen.

    3) Select "Console Settings" to open the Console Settings window.

    4) Highlight "Xbox Companion" to open the Xbox Companion screen. On the right side of the Console Settings window, you'll see that the current setting for the Xbox Companion is unavailable.

    5) Select "Xbox Companion" to open the Xbox Companion window.

    6) Select "Available." You'll automatically return to the Console Settings page where Xbox Companion is highlighted.

    7) Ensure your iPhone is connected to the same Wi-Fi network as your Xbox 360 and then open the My Xbox LIVE app you just installed on your iPhone.

    8) Place a finger on your iPhone screen and flick it to the left three times to navigate through three sets of screens until you arrive at the Quickplay screen.

    9) Tap the green "Connect to Xbox" button at the top of the Quickplay screen. The Connect to Your Console screen appears on your iPhone screen, telling you how your iPhone and Xbox 360 should be set up before you proceed.

    10) Tap "Next." The green Connect to Xbox icon at the top of the Quickplay screen features a spinning icon and says "Connecting." A message appears on your Xbox 360 screen notifying you that you just connected to your Xbox 360 via Xbox Companion. Additionally,
    the green box at the top of the Quickplay screen turns into a gray box that says "Choose something to start on your Xbox." Beneath the gray box will be a list of apps installed on your Xbox 360 and any game that's currently in your console.

    11) Tap the icon featuring three dots in the lower-right corner of the app to bring up a menu and then select "Controller." A black screen appears on your iPhone that features an "A" with four arrows around it on the top half of the screen, and then the
    "Y," "X" and "B" buttons on the lower half of the screen. You can use this screen to navigate through the menus on your Xbox 360's screen.

    12) From the Quickplay menu you can select the game that's in the Xbox 360 console to launch the game on the Xbox 360, or you can select an app to launch that app on your Xbox 360. Some apps, such as the Netflix app, bring up the controller on your iPhone's
    screen and give you the option of navigating the app using that controller.

    I hope that this helps and you get it working :)

    Xbox 360 - Xbox One: Data

    [quote user="Galactic Geek"]

    As long as you keep your Xbox 360, you can plug it into your Xbox One console using the HDMI pass-through, which allows you to swtich from 1 application to another (such as from a game to TV, for example). In this way, you can still play your Xbox 360 games
    on your Xbox 360 through your Xbox One so to speak. It'll have minimal features, such as the aforementioned switching (& hopefully a bit of UI), but at least it's something. ;)

    [/quote]If you use the HDMI In to plug in your Xbox 360, then you cannot switch between it and TV, because you will not have TV connected through the HDMI In. You can still switch to other apps, such as Skype, but not TV (unless they offer apps such as the
    TWC and Verizon apps on 360).
