    Xbox family home xbox not working right


    We have 2 xbox's, An xbox one x and an xbox one s. The One X is the home xbox with game pass ultimate and uses my older brothers account. My issue is that whenever I want to play on my xbox one S on my account, I have to be signed into my brothers account to play online. Shouldn't I be able to play games online on my own account without having my brothers account signed in? It's especially annoying when we both want to play on our own xbox's online but we can't because the home xbox account has to be signed into the other. I've looked at other people problems and ours seems to be different from everyone.

    :)

    Xbox family home xbox not working right

    it actually is working correctly. You can only access his subscription on his Home console without needing his account. Since he has the One X attached as his Home, you would be able to sign in and play there, but you would either need your own subscription or someone else with a subscription would need to be signed in or have the One S set as their Home.

    Home xbox is not meant to be used by friemds

    Home xbox is meant to be used by same family in the same household

    You do know that xbox one supports external hds right ?

    Digital games and sharing between xboxes

    Hello Ungamingmamma,

    Thanks for reaching out to us, as recommended blow, you can only use your Xbox Home on two different consoles at the same time. I'll post a link below that will give you more information to see how you can set up the Family account you currently have and
    get everything working right as rain.

    Game Pass Ultimate sharing across two xboxs in same house

    I'm not sure I understand what you mean by "login with the account where you have the GPU."

    If I log into the Home Xbox, gaming works as expected. When I log into the other Xbox to watch Netflix, it stops working for family members still on the Home Xbox.
