Why does the May 2023 dashboard update limit me to pinning TWO groups to the home page?

BulldogK9 · May 19, 2023

I have had several groups on the home page for as long as we've had groups. Just got the update, and it appears to limit me to no more than two groups. This is bad. Nay, it is evil. You put up a ton of what is basically ads onto the home page and crowd out what I actually, want and need there. A "Nostalgia" section. "Comic Worlds?"

I want to pin several groups of stuff that I've created to the home page.

So the Xbox home page dashboard updated today and it is absolutely horrible. It’s over cluttered and filled with mostly cards that I have no desire to see. I used to have two groups for games and another group for streaming apps all on the Home Screen. Now I can only put two of my groups on the home page at a time and it’s just overly cluttered with advertisements and with no way to edit it so that what I use most is easy to access. This is just not very customizable and personal like it used to be.

My buddy still has the old dashboard. Is there any way to just go back to the simpler and much better Home Screen?

Cause this is quite possibly the worst Home Screen since the Xbox one has been out. And it was obvious within the first few minutes after using it.

I'm agrees with you, this dashboard Is trash, full of ads and not personalizable! Now its supports only 10 single games on home or 2 groups. I have 10 groups of games . Microsoft why you destroy Xbox console?

"You can pin your favorite games and apps to the home screen, and move the ads to the bottom of the screen."

Wrong. You can't move the ads to the bottom of the screen because this Dashboard update (downgrade) removed the ability to customise the Home screen (dashboard).

Creation of Two groups, to pin games and apps, is all your allowed and they will always appear below the first page of ADS.

Any panel of ADS shown as you scroll thru this cluttered mess cannot be moved, hidden or deleted by the owner of the console.

This is by far the WORST change to the XBOX interface released to the public after all the unanswered NEGATIVE feedback provided by Insiders during the 12 months of testing.

The 'pin to home' feature is pretty neat, though without any option to make 'home' your homepage it seems mostly redundant.

The what?

What's this "pin to home feature" you are on about?

Now is it me or does every update that M.S do to the dashboard seem to make it worse?

This dashboard is based on the Metro interface of WIndows Phone 7 which I love. However, it does not have one of its best features, the ability to pin the tiles. Why can't I pin Youtube or Inside Xbox to the home screen?
