    Xbox Household


    Hello there,

    I currently have 2 Xbox consoles in my house, in which they have 3 profiles on, 2 on 1 and 1 on the other.

    I'm happy to remove my account from one of them which would mean they would be 1 profile on each.

    I want to purchase Xbox Live and Games Pass and for them to share between the 2 remaining accounts, but I still want to be able to protect the accounts as it would be a child playing on each of them.

    At the moment I have Xbox Family set up with "Mine" as the home account and the other 2 child accounts.

    As mentioned previously I want to buy Xbox Live once and both my children benefit from it on 2 Xbox's.

    :)

    Hi BoltonSquad,

    I'll do my best to explain the Home console sharing and the best way you can go about sharing the subscriptions between their accounts. Every account can have only one Home console set as it's Home console at a time, but console's can have multiple accounts
    added to it and be the Home console for those account's. Digital content and subscriptions at that point are shared between account on the same Home console.

    Let's say you get both subscriptions on your account, with your current Home console set up, only your son's account would benefit from the subscriptions. Your account would be required to be signed in the background on Xbox 2 since Xbox 1 is the account's
    Home console. Other accounts can use content another account owns as long as that account is signed in.

    The only way to get this set up in a way where you don't have to by 2 of each subscriptions for both accounts is to purchase the subscription on one of the child accounts and you'll have to add that account to the other Xbox, set it as home, and the subscription
    will be shared with the second child account. This may not be ideal since you said they do not share but this is logically the only way to have to pay for only one of each subscription with 2 different Xbox's at home. I recommend setting up a passkey to prevent
    unwanted sign-ins if you do decided to go that route.

    While having one set as "Home Xbox" for the other to fully function as the same you would have to remain signed in at all times that your other child is playing on the one that is not your "Home Xbox". I have done this myself with my little brother, works
    perfectly.

    Maybe you can set the console that isn't your Home console to automatically log you in, then your daughter will just have to log into her own account to play gold without actually having it. To make it even easier, you can set your daughters controller
    to sign her in white the console instant signs you in. Gold is shared on your main console already so you should need to be logged it. It's a bit of a jerry-rigged setup but its the best guess I have. You'll be able to assess PC controls from anywhere, even
    your computer if you so choose.

    I personally don't play Xbox anymore so I don't have an issue removing 1 account My Account but I still want to have parental access to both of the other 2 my daughter and sons.

    Both of them play separate Xbox's one's downstairs and one's upstairs at different times so we don't really have a main one.
