    Hello all!

    I had two quick suggestions to help improve the Xbox One UI -

    1) Right now we have a dark theme and a light theme. The light theme is far too bright for most TVs. I would love to see a theme that is light but gray-light so we can have a light theme without it burning off our retinas.

    2) We now have games which are installed from discs, downloaded or downloaded from Gamepass which makes it even more confusing to quickly see which ones are actually owned by you and which ones are Gamepass derived. You have to go into the game library but
    there is nothing to tell them apart if you have lots of games pinned to the front page. Would love to see some icons that show up within the game thumbnails that give you information about Gamepass/owned and disc/downloaded. The PS4 has a neat disc icon that
    shows which games are downloaded and which ones require a disc. I hate having to find out by trial and error which game is on disc.

    Thanks!

    Sid

    I would also find it useful if there was an easy way to see if a game needs a disc or was installed via games pass.

    This will be a great feature to have, especially if you have many games installed.

    Those are pretty good ideas! I've never personally liked light themes in general, but I can see a less-light theme being nice.

    They've also done a lot of work on the icons for where people are playing (PC, Console, mobile) as well as party chat (headset vs Kinect) so having a similar design for small icons on titles that display where the license resides like Disk, Game Pass, EA
    Access, Games with Gold, etc. would be welcome. If you post it on the
    Xbox Feedback site    , I'd sure vote for it!
    Thanks! I think so too. I did post both ideas there but they seem to have gone missing/or maybe not get approved by the mods. Weird. I'll post them again!
