The new Xbox app replaces the current Xbox One and Xbox 360 SmartGlass apps that were available for the different platforms, and Microsoft says that it includes all the same features you used to have in the SmartGlass apps, and a lot more. If you have already used the Xbox app on Windows 10 or on Windows 10 Mobile, the new app for iOS and Android will look very familiar.
