Xbox headset icon next to gamer tag- question

DanielUllr · May 2, 2020

When someone has a headset icon next to their gamer tag, I understand that this is an indicator that they're in an xbox party, that checks out. However, there are times when people have that icon but when you try to join there is no option to join, it
appears as if they are not in a party. The only two possibilities I can think of it is that it's not updating or perhaps they have set to invite only. Has anyone investigated this?

It means they are in a party if there is a controller that means there in a multiplayer game you can join these don’t update properly.

Hey there Ruediger,

Thanks for reaching out here in Xbox Forums. I understand there is a question on the icons on the homepage. The icon is stating there is a headset being read by the system.

For any questions on connecting a headset to the Xbox One, I recommend checking out this article:Set up and
troubleshoot your Xbox One Stereo Headset.

Hope this helps.
