Xbox Game Streaming (Xbox Console Companion AND Xbox Beta App on Google Play) problems

Thank u for replying, but i don't think i can stream my xbox one games on my laptop using Xbox beta app,, I can only see the option on Console companion app :/

Hi Da1AndOnlyKman,

Thanks for reaching out to us in the forums for this issue. If I'm understanding what is happening correctly, your Xbox app is crashing, is that right?

Are you using the Xbox Console Companion app on your PC to connect with your gaming on console while streaming, or are you attempting to use it to play games on the Windows 10 PC itself? If so, then I would recommend the following support article as it has
great troubleshooting in that regard: Troubleshooting Xbox Console Companion app game streaming on Windows 10.

If you'd like to download games (especially Play Anywhere titles like the ones you mentioned)and play them solely on your PC, then you'll need to use the Xbox (Beta) app to do so. The following support articles can further detail how to accomplish
this:

What is the Xbox (Beta) app and how do I use it?


How do I get the Xbox (Beta) app?

Give the solutions a try and let us know the results.

I hope that this helps you out!

I think that I have managed to fix the issue. Launching games through the xbox console companion app (https://www.xbox.com/en-US/apps/console-companion-app), rather than the xbox game pass beta, seems to fix the problem.

Xbox Console Companion is not required for games on Windows 10. There is currently a new app for games, the Xbox app (beta). Check out the Microsoft Store.

Also could you describe what problems you are having with the app?
