Okay, so get this. You’re an Xbox Insider, yeah? Well, guess what? You’re about to see some funky changes in how your Home screen looks. It’s like they finally heard us yelling into the void about making stuff more… ours. Like, seriously, it’s about time, right?
So, what just happened?
Boom! New settings hit your recently played games and apps list. Now, if you’re like me and your Home screen feels like an overstuffed suitcase, here’s the lowdown:
-
Hide System Apps – Ever feel like your screen screams "system overload"? Now you can just kind of, poof, hide those pesky system apps. Less chaos, more game vibes.
-
Pin Favorites to Home – Imagine gluing your fav games right on the front without scrounging around. You can snag your top three and toss them up front, like your digital BFFs.
- Reduce Tile Count (Coming Soon!) – Minimalists, rejoice! You can pull a Marie Kondo and declutter those tiles. Sadly, we gotta chill a bit before this one drops, but hey, patience is practice or something.
Now, only the cool kids — the Alpha Skip-Ahead and Alpha users — get first dibs. We wanna hear the good, the bad, and the "meh." What shapes up will depend on our nagging, cough, feedback.
Why do we care?
Okay, so we’ve all been grumbling about Home being more, well, "us." If my screen doesn’t feel like my space where I hide from reality, what’s the point? They’re basically giving us the key to our little game kingdom. So, report back – or rant on the Xbox Insiders subreddit – about what’s hot or not. They say they listen. Fingers crossed, right?
The Future of Xbox?
Big shoutout to fellow Insiders. We stir the pot. We make things happen. If you’re looking for help, swing by the subreddit. Seriously. There’s a whole squad of Xbox folks and players ready to sort you out. Tip: Respond to similar posts before splattering a new one; keeps things tidy (says the one liking chaos).
And hey, if you’re sitting there, not an Insider yet, pondering the cosmic purpose, hop on the wagon. Download the Xbox Insider Hub – yeah, it’s a thing – and start living in the fast lane with us.
For more deets or if you just wanna peek at what’s coming, keep your eyes on the Xbox Insider Home. Trust me, you’ll wanna stay in the loop.
