  1. Xbox App for iPhone - Series X - Remote doesn’t work


    I used it to set up my new console and punched in the letters on my tv screen etc but I can't get anything else to work. When I try to use the remote on there or turn on my console, all I keep getting is a message that says "Try Again Soon" and "Can't connect right now"

    Everything else seems to be connected to my account. I see all my friends etc, just the remote won’t work and I can’t turn my console on like I could with Xbone.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    XBOX Series X remote play only works when connected TV is turned on.

    Hello Samy.

    I'm using Inside build. I was in delta.

    but my current firmware version is 10.0.22000.2285 . I believe this version is same version with official latest firmware version.

    I followed your instruction. cleared my MAC address but no luck.

    and for your information, as I said remote play works with android or iphone.

    but PC xbox app remote play is not working when my tv is turned off.

    if I turn on my tv first, then connect my xbox series x on my PC then it works perfectly.

    but then , if I turn off my tv, then network connection become very unstable (stuttering insanely)

    and become disconnected in about one minute.

    I tried unplug hdmi cable while remote playing(not turn off tv) . and it behaves same way

    and again, none of this issues occur in iphone or android phone xbox app. no matter tv is turned on or off.

    PC to XSX Remote Play - console turns on, only see a black screen, disconnects 1 min later

    Then remote.play wont work

    Remote play ala xcloud is only available on gamepass ultimate

    Game.streaming.via.the xbox companion app requires a xbox

    Keep in mind you can't.use.the.xbox while you are.using.the wireless gamestreaming
    Huh? Remote Play is nothing to do with Xcloud or Game Pass. And if it won't work, then how can they get it working on their Android device? And they have an Xbox so that's not the issue.

    They are trying to Remote Play their Series X games from their Series X console to their PC via the Remote Play feature and using the Xbox App. This should work without an issue, as it does with their Android device. There is nothing on the Remote Play page to suggest Game Pass is needed

    “Enable remote features” checkbox unchecks itself every time I exit the menu.

    Hi,

    As stated, the only error messages I am getting are on the Xbox app for my iPhone. When I try to add an existing console to the Xbox app for remote play I get as far as naming the Xbox and once I press next it says “Try again in a bit. Something went wrong.”

    I opened up the remote play option in the settings menu on my Xbox and the "Enable remote features" checkbox was once again unchecked.

    You mentioned setting my console to Sleep mode however sleep mode was already enabled.

    I uninstalled and reinstalled the Xbox app from my phone and then after signing back in I tried to add a console. I want to specify that I am adding an existing console. I got through the whole setup up until hitting next after I chose the name of my Xbox and it gives me a "Try again in a bit. Something went wrong."

    The weird thing is, my Xbox shows up in the "Consoles" section of my library. I fully closed and reopened the app and my Xbox disappeared from the "Consoles" section of my library.

    I honestly believe this issue may be on your guys' end because even now the "Enable remote features" checkbox in the settings app on my Xbox Series X is still unchecking itself.

    I would like to mention that when I test remote play on my Xbox Series X I get all the green checkmarks apart from the network type. My network type has a triangle with an exclamation point in the middle and says "Network type: Wireless. Interference on your home network might get in the way of playing remotely." next to it. I do not think should cause an issues however because when I opened the Xbox app on my iPhone and tested remote play after going through the whole setup process even after getting the "Try again in a bit. Something went wrong." error after naming my Xbox, remote play worked. I fully closed and reopened the app on my iPhone and the console was gone once again. I quit the settings menu on my Xbox Series X and then reopened it and went back to the remote play settings and the "Enable remote features" checkbox was still unchecked.

    I've tried power cycling my Xbox and to no avail.

    I seriously think I have found a bug in either Xbox Series X's OS or the Xbox app.

    Edit: I just tried using my iPhone as a remote control for my Xbox and when I press any button it gives me a red triangle with an exclamation point. Underneath said caution sign it says "Try again soon" and underneath that it says "Can't connect right now." I see no reason for this to be happening. Do keep in mind that every single time I try this I have to go through the whole remote play setup from my Xbox app including the sections you have to complete on the console.
