Trying to play through the Xbox app Remote Play option. Xbox controller is connected to...

Hi Asher,

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Xbox Community. I understand that you're trying to connect to your Xbox through your Windows 11 PC. Are you trying to use the remote play feature of your console?

In order to enable remote play, you need to enable remote features from the settings of 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.

In Xbox App Preferences, you need to select "Allow connections from any device" if you want to remove any authentication.

If these settings are already configured properly, here are the steps on how you could proceed with the remote play.

On a mobile device:

Open the Xbox mobile app.

Select the My Library icon and select Consoles.

Select the console you want to connect to and then press Remote play on this device.

On a Windows device:

Open the Xbox app for PC.

Click on your profile picture and select View profile.

Under Where I play, select the Add a console option and follow the steps shown.

Regards,

Alvaro

Try connecting your Xbox app to your Xbox and then your controller to your phone, and using remote play I fixed it then just connected my controller back to my Xbox. It worked for me.
