If you have an Xbox One, though, you’ve now got a decent alternative for streaming games to your Mac in the form of the new OneCast app. For just $10 (regular price $20) and a decent internet. Just bought a Mac mini for my main pc and I have the PlayStation remote app installed and it works fine, however I have an Xbox series x that I’d like to be able to stream to my mini but it seems there isn’t a native app to that! Does anyone know a way to do this (we don’t have bootcamp on new M1 macs). At first I hated the button setting. Then it dawned on me, duh! It’s streaming from my system I can use my controller. I really enjoyed the idea of laying down next to my tablet playing Xbox. This app does work with the controller! Yeah, maybe you can’t leave the house but the idea of being able to use my tablet to play Xbox even outside is. Start broadcasting as normal on the Xbox. On the Mac, open your own channel, open the settings menu (gear) in the player, enable Audio Only and Low Latency. Streaming just audio keeps latency even lower - doesn't take a fast connection to stream audio compared to video. The reason I made this video is to solve a problem that arose when I wanted to watch my Xbox One X content in full 4K HDR while streaming with an Elgato HD60.

A report earlier this week indicated that Microsoft’s new Xbox app would come to iOS with support for streaming Xbox games to your iPhone. The app is now available in beta, and The Verge has a hands-on look at how it works.

Xbox Game Streaming To Mac

First and foremost, what’s important to note here is that the new Xbox app is not the same as Microsoft’s xCloud streaming game service. Here’s how the two compare:

  • The new Xbox app lets you stream games from your Xbox One console to your iPhone
  • Microsoft’s Cloud service lets you stream games directly from servers, no Xbox One console required.

Microsoft and Apple have engaged in a public dispute over whether or not streaming game services should be available through the App Store, with Microsoft balking at Apple’s stringent requirements. The new Xbox app is a new solution that at least brings remote gaming capabilities to Xbox console owners.

The Verge details how the app connects to your home Xbox One console:

You will be able to access an Xbox console over Wi-Fi, or even an LTE or 5G connection, too. As this app takes control of your home Xbox, you can remotely start your console outside of your home. The Xbox will start up without a sound or the Xbox light at the front, and when you disconnect, it goes back into standby after a brief period of inactivity.

In addition to playing games from your Xbox on your iPhone, the new Xbox application also allows you to download and share game clips and screenshots, manage settings and storage, and delete games.

Here is a short video showing how the Xbox app works on iPhone, including how to connect directly to the Xbox One console and play:

There’s no public release date for the new Xbox app for iPhone users just yet, but it should be available soon. The beta is running through Apple’s TestFlight platform, but there are currently no open spots.
