    Set a friend remote playing on my console as player 2?


    I want to have a friend use remote play on the xbox app to join on my console and do couch co-op. It's basically functional but I haven't found a method to have my friend set their controller as Player 2. Instead it's as if they're sharing Player 1's control.

    Am I missing something?

    :)

    Distance from Xbox to be able to use remote play

    Hi there Remote, my name is Gerardo, and I'm an Xbox player, just like you. I'll be happy to assist you with any questions or concerns you may have.

    You should be able to play on Remote Play with your Xbox console regardless of the distance you are from it. Even if you are not in the same location as your Xbox console and even if you are not connected to the same internet connection as your console, you can play with it on Remote Play. For example, if you are in a different location from where your console is located and you use a mobile phone, you can start the remote gaming session and play with your console by connecting the controller to your mobile phone via Bluetooth, although the latency may vary depending on the speed of the connection you are connected to.

    You can see how to set up Remote Play on your Xbox console via the following link:

    Please keep in mind that in this public forum, we are just fellow players like you, trying to help other players with our best intentions.

    I hope this helps and if you have further questions please let me know.

    Kind regards,
    Gerardo.

    Remote access play question

    Hi there, my name is Gerardo, and I'm an Xbox player, just like you. I'll be happy to assist you with any questions or concerns you may have.

    The remote play settings are not specific to each account but rather a general console setting. It doesn't matter which account configures it; if someone else disables the remote play setting on the console, you won't be able to continue playing that way unless you reconfigure it.

    I hope this helps and if you have further questions please let me know.

    Kind regards,
    Gerardo.

    Hello guys, need some help here with Xbox phone App

    In addition, there's no need for code when connecting your Xbox app to your console. Just make sure you have the right setting below on your console.

    Press the Xbox button on your controller to open the guide.
    Go to Profile & system > Settings > Devices & connections > Remote features.
    Select the Enable remote features checkbox.
    Under Power options, select Sleep.

    Note: If your console power mode isn't set to Sleep, remote play won't work.

    On your Xbox app on mobile:
    Select the My Library icon and select Consoles.
    ***Pull down your screen 2 to 3 times to refresh the list
    Select the console you want to connect to and then press Remote play on this device.
