Signing in on multiple Xbox consoles at the same time
You can only sign in to one Xbox One console, or one Xbox 360 console, at a time. If you try to sign in on a second Xbox One or Xbox 360 console, you'll be automatically signed out from the first console.
There are a couple of ways you can prevent this from happening:
- Remove automatic sign-in for your account when you turn on your controller. See Sign in to your Xbox One with a personal controller for more info.
- If you have a Kinect, choose “Ask for my passkey” or “Lock it down” to force manual sign-in, as the other options will sign you in automatically as soon as your Kinect recognizes you. Go to Change your sign-in preferences on your Xbox One console for more info.
You can be signed in to one Xbox One console and one Xbox 360 console at the same time. However, there are some apps that you can't use on different consoles at the same time.
