When we launched the web marketplace in last November, we introduced the ability for Xbox LIVE members to browse Marketplace through Xbox.com and easily add game and video content to your Xbox 360 download queue. That meant when you turned on your Xbox 360 console, and signed into LIVE, you would immediately start downloading items you added from the web Marketplace. Grab it up real nice-like How to take, share, and delete Xbox One screenshots The Xbox One has the ability to take screenshots of your favorite games, either for storing, saving, or sharing on. The Xbox One X handles file management for its 4K “enhanced” games for you, which makes things easier, but may also force you to spend a lot more time and bandwidth downloading them.

Software giant Microsoft today pushed a nice little update to its Xbox One companion app for the iPhone and iPad, SmartGlass.

Version 2.8 is now available in the App Store, providing a handy new feature letting you buy and install Xbox games and other content remotely, from your iOS device.

Moreover, the application now supports in-app browsing of new and popular games, add-ons and bundles.

You can even rate your favorite Xbox game clips and activity feed entries, as well as view shared Activity Feed and Game Clips — all within the app. And in a future SmartGlass update due later this year, Microsoft will add ability to stream live TV locally to your iPhone or iPad…

Microsoft has confirmed the forthcoming live TV streaming feature in a blog post a week ago, which also detailed the just-released Xbox One firmware update with more than a dozen new features.

Rather unsurprisingly, Microsoft is calling this feature ‘Stream TV to SmartGlass’. It will launch first in the territories getting the new Xbox Digital TV Tuner (pictured below) for the console.

With the SmartGlass for iOS, Xbox One owners will be able to stream live TV across a Wi-Fi network to their iPhones and iPads.

For those wondering, the tuner is not required for live TV streaming — its primary purpose is to allow non-HDMI boxes to be able to connect to the console.

DVR-like features will be supported by Stream TV to SmartGlass: you’ll be permitted to pause, play and rewind live TV as well as change channels on the fly, without interrupting gameplay on the Xbox One.

“This will work for SmartGlass apps on Windows, iOS, and Android,” confirmed the Windows maker.

As for the tuner add-on, it’s set to debut in the United Kingdom, Germany, Italy and Spain in October of this year.

For those interested, here’s the latest August Xbox One update in action.

Xbox One SmartGlass 2.8 changelog:

• Rate your favorite game clips and activity feed entries
• Purchase things on your phone or tablet and they will start installing on your Xbox
• Browse new and popular games, add-ons, and bundles
• Receive and view shared Activity Feed and Game Clips
• General stability and polish improvements
• Bug fixes

The 30-megabyte download requires an iPhone, iPod touch or iPad device compatible with iOS 6.0 or later.

Other notes

If you have a 4K Xbox One X you can lower the resolution of captures using this method. Sometimes it might be worth lowering the resolution if you plan to share the clips and screenshots on social media, particularly Twitter, since it doesn't support 4K.

How To Manage Queue Xbox One Account

You can check the upload status of clips from the Manage clips page by selecting Upload Status from the filter. If you have issues finding your recently uploaded captures, it might still be in the upload queue.

The Xbox One doesn't have an infinite amount of cloud storage and can fill up quickly, particularly if you're recording at 4K. So be sure to store and manage clips frequently.

When not in a game, you can access and manage clips directly from the Xbox guide menu, by hitting the Xbox button on your controller, and then pressing the View key to see recent captures.
