If you're already in the preview program, you probably already know about a lot of what they talk about - that's why this isn't for you. This is for those of you who are NOT in the preview program that may not realize what kind of cool new features are on
the way.

Got the newest update but still do not have a friends tab on home screen... Anyone else like me?

Don't get it. I've had 3 updates so far and not one of them added the friends tab. I have the new and improved active feed in friends app but not friends page.... also is the "mini xbox home screen guide (Xbox 360 Guide type of thing)" and the Media Center out with this update?

 

I'm NOT in this Preview Program. Sure you get stuff before everyone gets it, but I've seen far too many people pointing out bugs like I'm done with Xbox Halo 5 blah blah blah a recent post, or it wiped my HDD.

What I'd like it to do, is see your avatars in the Party, like Xbox Live Party Chat on Xbox 360, rather than your avatars being locked up in the "Avatar App". I watched the videos and it's good to see them using what people have experienced on Xbox 360,
and trying to implement a similar or so experience, to Xbox 1. 50% faster sounds good too. When Xbox 1 launched, the UI was unbearably slow on a console with 8GB RAM and an 8 core APU/processor, that I stopped playing on Xbox 1 for a couple of weeks. At launch,
it took like 30 seconds+, just to open up every individual app like friends and messages. I even did a YouTube video comparing Xbox 1's UI to Xbox 360 at the time I think you've seen it. I think you've seen the videos geek. But Microsoft has made a lot of
improvements to the UI since launch. Most of the people and my friends on Xbox 360, a few months back and last year,, said they don't like the Windows 8 UI on Xbox 1. It would be good to see Windows 10 Features roll out on Xbox 1. I just went on my Xbox 1
console, this new experience is not out yet for everyone, as there is no console update when I checked a few minutes ago.

Microsoft must be listening to feedback about their UI design on Xbox and PC. Windows 10 lets you "personalize" like the start menu fully customizable by what you can put in it. I got my new PC with intel core i5 6th gen processor 2 weeks ago. And I like
how you can customize the start menu with apps and resize them. Windows 8 doesn't let you do this or go to some 3rd party app provider or something to make the UI look like Windows 7. I really didn't like Xbox 1's UI at launch, it was slow and not personal
no voice messages it didn't even let us change the background. Younger people like personalization. But no, they dump a black background as the dashboard. But it's great to see them listening to our feedback and making lots of improvements to Xbox 1 since
it came out. Windows 10 still has a few issues like graphics card compatibility if you have intel processor and NVidia or AMD graphics card, you cant manually choose which switchable graphics card you want to use the built in graphics which your intel processor
has, or the AMD/Nvidia which has far better graphics (maybe you could if you do a tonne of research or work in IT or something). It's something computer manufacturers or AMD or Intel or Microsoft need to get fixed. But my new PC which is an HP 15 ab222TX can
play The Sims 4. It's probably using the Intel HD 520 Iris chip than the AMD R7 M360 2GB. But my new PC has 8GB DDR3L RAM. But that's another story.

 

Thanks for the reply, SSB!
