    So I have the xbox family settings app with parental controls set up and it is not syncing with the console. The app is set to allow play and the console says that parental controls disallow play. How do I make sure the app is synced with the console?

    I have tried logging out of the app and logging back in again. I have tried turning the console on and off.

    :)

    How do I get the Xbox App to Sync Data? (Gamepass games stuck 'syncing data')

    Hello Sebastian S, I am an independent advisor and I will be happy to help you today. My name is Khaji

    I'm sorry to hear that you're experiencing issues with data syncing on the Xbox app and Game Pass games.

    First make sure your internet connection is stable and working properly. Connectivity issues may affect data syncing in the Xbox app. Try restarting your router or trying a wired connection instead of Wi-Fi to rule out connection issues.

    Reset the Xbox app cache You can try resetting the Xbox app cache to fix possible caching issues. To do so, follow these steps:

    Close the Xbox app.
    Press Windows key + R to open the Run dialog box.
    Type "wsreset.exe" (without the quotes) and press Enter.
    A command prompt window will open and the Microsoft Store cache will be reset.
    Restart your computer and then open the Xbox app again.

    Check sync settings in the Xbox app Make sure the data sync option is enabled in the Xbox app settings. You can access settings by clicking on your profile in the top right corner of the app and selecting "Settings." Then, go to the "General" tab and make sure that the "Sync game data to the cloud" option is enabled.

    Verify that the cloud storage option is enabled for Game Pass games. You can do it by following these steps:

    Start a Game Pass game.
    Go to the game settings within the same game.
    Look for the cloud storage or sync option and make sure it is enabled.

    Thank you very much for your patience and understanding! If you need anything else, do not hesitate to contact us again.

    Not all Game Pass games have achievements like the retail release. That being said, have you tried resetting the Xbox Beta app, Game Bar app and the Xbox Companion app. Reset them all before going back into any of them, then start signing back into each
    app one at a time. Sounds like a sync issue. Also, post this on the Feedback Hub.
