Streaks appearing on profile and top left of screen

It does indeed still exist.

To use this, go to your profile, main screen click the tall thin bar on the left with your gamerpic, then click the top option called "my profile".

From here, the top option lets you appear offline.

You can possibly also get to this via voice command "xbox go to ..."

Have you tried doing it through the Xbox Console Companion on the PC?

- Click on your profile pic in the top left of the screen.

- Click Customise again from the three boxes in the middle of your screen.

- Then click on Customise on the big circular space for your profile pic.

- And now click on 'Choose a Custom Picture' at the top of the box that appears.

There are limitations to what you can upload -nothing obscene obviously. But hopefully this helps.

Go to the home screen, at the top left there is 2 boxes one on the left is your notifications like party invites the other is your profile info. Click on the left one.
