    Mutliple devices in Microsoft Family


    Looking for help with why multiple devices are showing up in the "My Devices" section of Microsoft Family:

    Our household has one Xbox (an Xbox One S), and I set it up under our Family microsoft account, with a child's sub-account.

    I was checking in on my child's screentime today, and am a little suspicious that he is being honest with me, so I dug a little deeper by logging in to Microsoft Family from my desktop computer (I usually check from the iPhone app).

    My thought was that I would check to see if a new account or device had been set up secretly, so that he could get around my screentime limits.

    Everything seems fairly locked down -- he can't start any games unless he is logged in as himself, and then I see his activity.

    HOWEVER, I am a little miffed as to why multiple Xbox Ones are showing up in the "My devices" section of the Microsoft Family page. See below screenshot from that page:

    These additional two devices have different serial numbers, and do not show our family account avatar.

    Are these from other xboxes that he has logged into? For instance, at a friend's house?

    Thanks in advance!

    :)

    Share Xbox game pass perk codes

    Yes. Although depending on which perk it is, they may not be able to use mutliple.

    If you have mutliple characters, press "Y" at the main screen to select your character & saved game.

    Can I use two accounts one Gmail account

    No. The account is tied directly to a single email. You can have mutliple accounts but they need to be under different emails.
