Control your Xbox by using your voice

Use your voice to control your Xbox! While gamepads and keyboards remain options, voice commands offer a hands-free way to navigate menus and launch apps. This requires either Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant (available for Android and iOS).

Setting up Voice Control:

Xbox consoles since 2013 (Xbox One, Xbox One S, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S) support voice control. Navigate to Settings > Devices & connections > Digital assistants, and enable digital assistants. Then, link your Microsoft account within either the Alexa or Google Home app. You can use both assistants simultaneously if desired. Note: you're speaking to Alexa or Google Assistant, which then controls the Xbox. A smart speaker can also be used if linked to the same account. Google Assistant offers an on-screen Xbox remote control within the Google Home app.

Using Voice Commands:

Commands begin with "Alexa..." or "Hey Google...", followed by "Xbox" and your instruction.

• Power: "Turn Xbox on" (console must be in Sleep mode) or "Turn Xbox off".
• App/Game Launch: "Open [app or game] on Xbox".
• Capture: "Tell Xbox to take a screenshot" or "Tell Xbox to record that".
• Streaming: "Tell Xbox to start broadcasting" or "Tell Xbox to stop broadcasting".
• Media Control: "Pause Xbox," "Play Xbox," "Volume up on Xbox," "Volume down on Xbox".
• Social: Check Microsoft's official command list for comprehensive social features (friend status, messaging, online status – commands vary between assistants).

Enjoy the convenience of hands-free Xbox control!
