    Xbox console companion keyboard not popping up


    First of all I would like to say that the xbox console companion app has been great. Specially being able to sync with my console and type or copy and paste large sentences quickly on my console compared to having to type letter by letter on the controller
    itself.

    So I have done my research before posting this and I have tried everything recommended by posts previous to mine, the app was recently updated and ever since the keyboard does not appear at all anymore .

    Does the xbox support team have an actual fix for this issue? Please dont direct me to an old post I have already uninstalled the app, reintalled it, made sure everything was updated, both devices are on the same network. Still nothing. This issue is the
    same with both the IOS mobile app and the Windows 10 PC app. This was one of the best features of the app and now it doesnt work. I hope this isnt just me its happening to, please help.

    :)

    Xbox One virtual keypad

    You might need to click A in the textbox in order for the keyboard to pop up. It does not always pop up automatically just because there is a text-input field on screen.

    Alternatively, if you have a tablet or smartphone with Xbox One Smartglass, you could use that as a keyboard for your console.

    Typing on xbox one since recent dashboard update.

    These things happen in the Xbox preview. the best thing to do is report it using the Xbox insider hub. press the Nexus button (Xbox Button) down on the controller until the shutdown option pops up, then select report a problem, and continue from there.
    If you can't use the virtual keyboard in the insider hub, then connecting the xbox app on your phone or tablet to the xbox will work just as good or using the console companion app will also work too.

    Try a Power Cycle

    1. Press and hold the Xbox button in the center of your Xbox One controller to open the Power Center.
    2. Select Restart console.
    3. Select Restart.

    xbox console companion achievements notifications isn't popping up

    Es porque eres parte De la beta esto al firmar parte De las pruebas beta implica que tengas bastantes errores que encuentres ya que eres parte De una prueba no De la oficial
    I translate to this

    It is because you are part of the beta this when

    signing part of the beta tests implies that you

    have enough errors that you find since you are part of a test not of the official.
    I'm sorry but I never mention I was in the beta companion. As the beta version is still 44. I never tested

    anything. I'm not sure why you even felt that? Or maybe the translating is bad lol
