I bought a movie through Xbox, how do I watch it on my phone or tablet?

Blue Orion · Jul 2, 2023

As the title says, I bought a movie through the Xbox store. I'm connected through movies anywhere (Xbox movies and TV), but it won't show up on my phone or my tablet. The only way I can watch it is on my Xbox. Does anyone know how to access the movie I bought through another device?

Depending on the owner of the movie, and your geographic location, if you're in the United States you can use Movies anywhere service to transport movies from Sony, Universal, WB, Fox, Disney two other services like iTunes, Amazon, or Vudu

Hey there KoreVirus.

To clarify, are you trying to watch the movie through the Microsoft Store? If so what type of tablet are you using to stream the movie?

yea..i put in on my android...and noticed it didn't do anything.... I think it may get an update with the xbox one. The only thing I used it for was to mess with my kids when I noticed they were watching a movie...I would just pause it with my phone. A
tablet with live would have been nice. I would have liked that with 360...something I can watch my marketplace purchases on the go with.

$16? Sounds like you bought the movie, not rented it. If you bought it, it shows up in your account on all devices (phones, computer, Xbox console, etc). Rentals only on the device you rented it on. Hate to say it, but if I'm renting a video, I rent from
Amazon. It is usually a buck cheaper and there is no limitation on what device you watch it on---phone, tablet, pc, Xbox, Google TV, Tivo, etc.--anything with an Amazon Video app or a web browser.

Yes you can watch movies offline if you download on a surface tablet.

I do it at work.
