This has been a literal game-changer for me. I’ve woken up my sleepy Series X for the first time in awhile and playing Gamepass and Alan Wake 2 remotely on the Steam Deck
Been using this app for a few weeks now! One of the coolest features not mentioned here is the ability to add an Xcloud game shortcut (with artwork) right to your steam home screen. That way you don't have to go into the awkward game selection screen.
Hi, could you explain how to create a shortcut of the Gamepass Games? There ist no "add to Steam" Button or similar, when choosing a Game to play it right starts
I am wary of logging into my xbox account on a 3rd party app. Even if the people who made the app are trustworthy it just adds another issue with security.
Dont hear many people asking for it but I really hope valve adds on option for a cellular model for the next deck i wouldn't mind spending a bit more to always be connected to the internet
@@SteamDeckGaming Hotspot works but I run out of Hotspot data pretty fast and it kills some of my phone battery so id probably prefer just the cellular option
My steam deck still will not connect via xbplay. I’ve made sure everything is set up on my Xbox’s end. Says “Failed to Connect” every time I try on my deck
I had this on my Deck and was working perfectly, however I have upgraded my internal storage and have had to reinstall it. It seems to be working fine in Desktop mode but no matter what it doesn't install to Steam in gaming mode. I've reinstalled the app twice and selected the prompt to put it into gaming mode, turned on developer mode and restarted steam with no success. Is there any other way to get it working in Gaming mode?
Thanks for great video. I Just installed this. It works fine on all my games. But when I play dragons dogma 2 the steam deck controller buttons don’t work. Why would this be.
Been using this no issues about a month now, signed in to use it today and it’s telling me “We are sorry, the page you requested cannot be found.” Everytime I open the app. Can’t even attempt to sign in or anything. Anyone know how to fix this or have had this happen? I’ve tried resetting everything.
Very latest Greenlight isn’t working for me in gaming mode, even though it works in Desktop mode. £5 seems a fair price for something that works so much more seamlessly without fiddling around in desktop mode.
@@SteamDeckGaming I have unlimited 5G data which supports 4K video with no throttling but to use the mobile hotspot feature it has a separate 50GB/mo cap.
This doesn't work if you have gone password less with Microsoft account. At least for ios app. Each time I switch to MS Authenticator on my iPhone to approve sign in and switch back to XBPlay, it takes me back to sign in page. Did anyone got this working ?
Hi its me again. 🤣 Been successfully using this app for over a month now, mainly playing Diablo 4. All is good but for the Xbox Guide button. Can you tell me how I can set up the Guide button via controller set up? I want to be able to set it to the left-side mouse pad. So when pressed I can see my online friends, messages and invites.
@@meric12131415 it does, they have a guide on this channel, you need to enable port forwarding for specific ports. i literally got it set up and working and tested with a hotspot, it works.
Hi, this is a very good video. It's working for me to my Steam Deck. But I am still getting the 'trial' message. Only this time it's after dead-on 15mins and not after 5mins in this video. I'm in the UK and did pay the £5 to turn ads off. Can you help me? I don't know if I lost my way at the end of the video and missed a crucial bit of info, after paying. But I am still getting logged out like I'm still playing trial version.
@@SteamDeckGaming Oh maybe that's where I went wrong. Because I downloaded the app off my phone. But play on my Steam Deck. I will try that and let you know how I get on thank you
Remote playing Starfield and it looks ridicilously dark. I put brightness up and it changed nothing. Is this an app issue or a Starfield issue? 🤔 Edit: fired it up this morning and now its working fine. Worth the $5
everytime i login a little box pops up and says to enable remote features and xcloud token failed... i have gamepass but no xbox console... what am i doing wrong? i just want to get this working lol
Nope! That got me mad in a hurry. The app won't let me login because my Microsoft account requires that I approve of the login with authenticator which is on my phone but the login process for the xb app resets when I switch apps to approve it. It was just 5 minutes of a loop of me trying to login and then it resetting the login screen every time I got back to the app.
XBPLAY IS TRASH... YOU CANT PLAY REMOTE WHAT SO EVER... LIKE 1 IN 99 TIMES YOU BOOT UP... CLOUD GAMING IS WORKING FINE BUT I WANT TO PLAY MY OWNED XBOX GAMES ON CONSOLE NOT PAY FOR GAMEPASS
Right but that's like asking why remote play as a whole exists some people aren't near their Xbox 24/7 so that's why it was invented it's also why I use it quite often
Just played Halo Infinite over Xbox Cloud Gaming from the holiday home where I don‘t have my xbox. It‘s absolutely awesome and might‘ve been my best experience on the steam deck yet. 60fps, almost zero input lag, 5-6 hours of battery life, almost no fan noise and a cold deck, better graphics than running it natively and I can play with my XBOX Gamertag. It‘s absolutely awesome!

I did mention it but it was very brief, happy that you highlighted it though
Thanks for this... Saw it on reddit and wasn't sure. Installed and working perfectly, very light on power too!
Glad I could help!
I'm running the app with a 3 watt TDP limit without issue and I'm getting amazing battery life.
This worked great, will post this on the Steam Deck community page, thank you!
Wow, thanks
Where can i find the steam deck community page??
@@hritzZ98 LOL Face book
I was hoping for Xbox to glue a controller to an 8 inch 1080p tablet though. 😥
Underrated comment.
Project Q is crazy
Project X
🤣 ah if only
Sony made ps portal by reading your comment
Any guide for port forwarding configuration?
It works but not using mobile data. Can you please make a port forwarding video for xbxplay?
works good but controls are not correctly mapped. Any way to fix this?
Edit: I just restarted my Steam Deck and now works fine
This is an amazing guide and a great feature. Thank you for the help.
How do I use the SD as a controller? It's only letting me use the screen as a controller
Thanks man This was a big help
Is it possible to get the Steam Deck joysticks to work instead of the touch screen?
yes! They work by default btw
Hey Man Can You Please Make a Video of how to Enable the Port Forwarding!
Am Having a Huge hard time or a Guide on how to? Never done this before
We need this sort of app for PlayStation otherwise it won't work outside your network with chiaki

With most people having decent phones and data plans, a hotspot is just as easy tbh when you need it

@@m2ljay right but remember it'll also drain the deck battery super fast
Confirmed a new way to play warzone 2.0 and halo
Whattt you serious? A new alternative without windows?🤯
@@TechManDanN Sarcasm?
How is the latency?
Dude the tilt controller is pretty weird in Horizon5 on iphone. Do you know how to set the sensitivity those settings?
My steam deck still will not connect via xbplay. I’ve made sure everything is set up on my Xbox’s end. Says “Failed to Connect” every time I try on my deck
have you rebooted your xbox and steam deck?

Does Xbox play work ok when you are away from home ie playing your I cloud games on your steam while using you personal hotspot
Any idea why the controller isn’t working? Green lights seeming less appealing by the day.

I have two Xboxes on the same account . It keeps connecting to the one I don’t want . What should I do to get the one I want.
This paid version, vs the free Greenlight and AppImage Launcher?
Yeah. Greenlight doesn’t work over data though even after port opening.
Very latest Greenlight isn’t working for me in gaming mode, even though it works in Desktop mode. £5 seems a fair price for something that works so much more seamlessly without fiddling around in desktop mode.
I only see a controller layout what is connected to my XBS🤔
Can I turn off mobile hotspot in the middle of playing a single player game and continue on playing the game ?
No, the internet is nescessary for receive the data from your Xbox, not for multiplayer game.
Hi great video thank you. I can’t get it setup to teather data from my mobile and to setup port forwarding. Any help with a video be a great help.
When I log in it brings me to a menu of games? How do I fix
@Steam Deck Gaming did you get to measure how much data mobile uses on average? Thanks
I did not, mostly because I didn't think to, sorry, I have an unlimited data plan so I forget to check that sort of thing lol
@@SteamDeckGaming I have unlimited 5G data which supports 4K video with no throttling but to use the mobile hotspot feature it has a separate 50GB/mo cap.
@@SteamDeckGaming even if you don't get charged for it your previous bill may still breakdown both usages.
How’s the remote play input lag ?
Stuck on login authenticating forever
Can I get this on Nintendo switch. If so can you make a video for it

How the heck do I use the steam deck controllers?
I wanna use remote play with cellular data, is that possible?
with this app, yes
@SteamDeckGaming It keep saying I have to be connected to the same wifi as my Xbox
Does it run better than greenlight?
it's more reliable and works on data, greenlight is good for local only though
Any apps for PlayStation remote play working over cellular unlike chiaki?
Well yeah but it's only for mobile psplay is the name of the game 🤣
chiaki works over cellular

No it's not

Via Google Play. But there shouldn’t be a subscription it’s one of
Can you play away from home?
Doesn't connect to my xbox. But cloud works fine
hve you tried rebooting your xbox?

if you just want game pass cloud (Xcloud) follow this instead ruclips.net/video/hNKz1n-iX4k/видео.html
sadly its only 30fps for xbox cloud gaming
Be careful with this app as it can make your controller have syncing issues.
I'm not 100% that Ill use this a ton but 5 bucks is an easy gable to give it a shot 🤷♂
Nope! That got me mad in a hurry.
The app won't let me login because my Microsoft account requires that I approve of the login with authenticator which is on my phone but the login process for the xb app resets when I switch apps to approve it. It was just 5 minutes of a loop of me trying to login and then it resetting the login screen every time I got back to the app.
Can you logon with an email code instead?
16:10 support natively? That’s crazy.
I’ll wait for Xbox to launch their app. It’s a matter of time since they won the case.
Guaranteed this will still run better than the native Xbox stream play FOR SURE
I never got this app to work ever
I cannot for the life of me figure how to make data work
Never worked either
I just use that greenlight app but this is pretty decent for £5
It’s the same so not worth paying for something you can get for free
greenlight doesn't work off the network, but you don't need that then yeah greenlight is fine
Maybe you just need to open ports for greenlight? Which client or all options offers the lowest latency? I hear edge is bad.
Still never works on remote play. Only cloud but greenlight much better. And can't configure the controlls. This video got me to waste 5 bucks. 👎👎👎
It's a shame it's not integrated in Greenlight! But nice app......for 6.99$ CAD
It is in green light remote play for Xbox and streaming gamepass games this app is identical
@@aaronvasseur6559 you can’t play on another wifi other than home on greenlight, if you know a way, tell me !

I'm still not sure why anyone wants to do this, the xbox is right there, just play that if you want to!?
When people only have the console on their main tv and other people in the house want to use the TV. Or you want to play in bed etc.
I want to play at work that's the only reason I want this feature on my deck. Right now I can only use xcloud but my library is much bigger and better
@@SteamDeckGaming exactly right?
Right but that's like asking why remote play as a whole exists some people aren't near their Xbox 24/7 so that's why it was invented it's also why I use it quite often
