Game pass with game sharing problem

Thank you! i've listened to your advice and began downloading the games, then signed off my dad's account and it still works! really nice

Thanks for your help and have a wonderfull day

If you read the post, he says the home account is set correctly.

Game pass shares identically to everything else using the home xbox. We have two xbox's sat right next to each other, and only one account has game pass. We share the games using the home xbox method.

So, in response to the OP, if your Dad's account has game pass, and the Xbox you use is your Dad's home console as you state, then yes, the game pass games should share and work perfectly.

I'm unsure as to why they aren't. Have you tried searching through the game pass menu? Does it still not let you download them?

The Account with the Game Pass needs to be signed in to download Game Pass games even if it's the Home console.

So to download games your dads account will need to be signed in.

Once a game is downloaded though you can play using your own account even if your dad isn't signed in. Provided your console is his home console.

I didn't switch at all, i just checked to see if my dad's account was the home account and it sure is!

I never switched home accounts since i first was told that i could share games with my father
