Watch TV with OneGuide on your Xbox One

This page describes how to use OneGuide to watch TV through Xbox One with your controller or voice commands.

  • To begin watching TV, say “Hey Cortana, watch TV” or select Live TV from the Entertainment hub.
  • To open OneGuide while watching a TV show, press the X button  on your controller.

Note OneGuide only supports a limited set of features or menus on set-top boxes. You’ll have to use your remote to access other features on your set-top box.

Note Voice commands are slightly different with digital assistants. For info on what to say to control your Xbox One with a digital assistant, see What can I say using Alexa and Cortana as digital assistants on Xbox One?
