Xbox Insiders Introduce New Home Personalization Options

You know when you’re poking around your Xbox and suddenly stumble upon something new? Yeah, that just happened. So, Xbox Insiders, heads up! This week, things are getting a tiny overhaul with new customization tricks popping up. The recently played games and apps on Home? They’re getting a facelift. Oh, and it’s all about making you feel more at home. Like, literally.

Now, What’s Actually New?

Picture this: you’re staring at your screen, and voila, three new settings appear for your recently played stuff. Why three? Beats me. But it’s more control, and who doesn’t like pressing more buttons?

1. Hide System Apps: Ever look at your screen and think, “Seriously, why is this here?” Now you can just hide all those random system apps. It’s kind of like shoving laundry into a closet before guests come over. Just much cooler.

2. Pin Favorites to Home: Here’s the cool part. You can pin up to three (three is the magic number, apparently) of your recently played stuff. They’re gonna stick around at the top like that one friend who never leaves early from a party. Convenient? Heck yes.

3. Reduce Tile Count (Coming Soon!): For those who like everything neat and tidy, this one’s golden. Fewer tiles mean fewer distractions. It’s like trimming a bonsai tree. Or not, but you get the drift. Still tweaking it, so hang tight.

These cool tweaks are hitting Alpha Skip-Ahead and Alpha users first. So, monologue time: What do you think? Does it rock? Or miss the mark? Honestly, who knows until you try it. But feedback, as they say, is key. So, shout it out.

Why This Whole Thing Even Matters

Here’s the scoop, straight from the heart. We want Home to look like, well, your home. Less mess, more you. Whether that’s favorite games upfront or stuff you hate disappearing into the digital abyss, it’s your call. And this update? Yeah, it’s all ‘cause you asked for it.
