If you’re an Xbox Insider, there’s an exciting update waiting for you: the Windows Xbox app’s revamped home screen! Microsoft has just introduced a more streamlined interface that combines Game Pass and Microsoft Store elements into one central spot. No more hopping between tabs—now you can find all your games right in one place.

Jumping into the Xbox Insider Program

Becoming an Xbox Insider is super easy. All it takes is downloading the Xbox Insider Hub from the Microsoft Store, enrolling, and selecting “PC Gaming Preview” to get access to the new home screen. By joining, you’ll also be able to test out other in-development features and provide feedback that helps Microsoft make improvements.

New Navigation Features and Compact Mode

This updated home screen brings fresh features that simplify navigation and enhance accessibility. If you’re using a Windows handheld console, Compact Mode is automatically enabled, shrinking the app’s interface by replacing tabs with easy-to-navigate icons. And if you’ve got Game Pass or have purchased games via the Microsoft Store, you’ll see your whole library in one organized view.

One feature making a return from earlier testing is “jump back in.” Now, you can quickly pick up where you left off with the nine most recent games you’ve played—just one click, and you’re back in action. This handy shortcut makes gameplay smoother, especially in Compact Mode.

A Personalized Experience with Featured Deals

Alongside your library, the new home screen serves up game recommendations tailored to your preferences. Plus, featured and discounted games are right there, all in a single tab, letting you browse deals and new releases without having to jump around.

Feedback and Improvements through the Insider Program

Microsoft is encouraging all Insiders to dive into this redesigned home screen and share their thoughts. Your feedback helps fine-tune the Xbox experience for everyone. Whether it’s suggestions, bug reports, or general impressions, every bit of input from Insiders plays a role in shaping the final release.

If you’re an Insider, or thinking of joining, now’s the perfect time to get hands-on with these updates and be part of the journey toward a more user-focused Xbox app experience.
