Microsoft has released a new version of its Xbox app for the iPhone and iPad which will allow Xbox gamers to play their consoles remotely.

Unlike the xCloud games streaming service - which only works on Android devices - the Xbox app allows phone users to stream games which are playing on their own console.

Microsoft's xCloud, which lets gamers stream games from Microsoft's servers, has been prohibited from the App Store as Apple says the service does not follow its normal review guidelines.

However the Xbox app doesn't depend on both devices being on the same WiFi network, allowing users to stream their games even when they're not at home - as long as the device is on and both have a decent connection.

Apple currently does not allow users to use their devices to play games using cloud computing - having the games run on hardware the phones are connecting to remotely - which would give gamers the ability to play higher-quality games on their mobile devices.

Microsoft has criticised Apple for not allowing its users access to the xCloud games streaming platform, as well as Google's cloud gaming service Stadia.

Office 2016 for mac vl serializer. Microsoft said Apple 'stands alone as the only general purpose platform to deny consumers from cloud gaming and game subscription services like Xbox Game Pass'.

'[Apple] consistently treats gaming apps differently, applying more lenient rules to non-gaming apps even when they include interactive content,' Microsoft added.

It comes ahead of Microsoft releasing two new Xbox consoles in November, and Apple releasing four 5G-compatible iPhone 12 models.

Apple suggested that Microsoft and Google could comply with its rules to have xCloud and Stadia available in the App Store by submitting the games as separate apps.

Microsoft dismissed the offer however, telling The Verge: 'This remains a bad experience for customers.

'Gamers want to jump directly into a game from their curated catalogue within one app, just like they do with movies or songs, and not be forced to download over 100 apps to play individual games from the cloud.'

UPDATE 8/12/15 13.20am Sky is finally available on Xbox One today (thanks, Xbox One UK).

There doesn't seem to be a link on the Xbox Store, but you can find the app now via the console's own marketplace./p>

The app gives access to live channels and on demand content, including box sets.

You'll need a Sky Go Extra subscription (£5.99 a month) to access the service, or Sky Multiscreen customers get it for free. There's currently a two month free trial for Xbox owners who already have Sky TV - just sign up at sky.com/xbox.

UPDATE 6/11/15 9.05am Xbox One will soon get a Sky TV app, Microsoft has said.

UK Xbox marketing chief Harvey Eagle told Eurogamer the app is in development now for Xbox One and 'coming soon'. He couldn't commit to a release date.

The Xbox 360's Sky TV app proved popular, so its omission from the Xbox One raised eyebrows. It left those who wished to watch Sky on their new console with the option of streaming with the Now TV app, or running their Sky box through their Xbox One. The PlayStation 4 has had a Sky TV app since December 2014.

On PS4, the Sky TV app requires a £5 Sky Go Extra subscription (this is on top of your existing Sky subscription). For that you get access to live channels, catch-up telly and the Sky Store. The Sky TV app will no doubt work similarly on Xbox One.

Meanwhile, Eagle reiterated that Cortana functionality (Microsoft's digital assistant) will be released to Xbox One preview members later in 2015, but won't be released to everyone else until 2016. This despite Cortana's availability on Windows 10 devices, and a Windows 10-flavoured update set to hit Xbox One very soon.
