Today, Microsoft made available for download a Windows Phone companion application for Xbox One users, in the form of Xbox One SmartGlass.

The new software should prove a great option for Xbox One users regardless of whether they are in the same room with the console or they are on the road. It enables users to control their Xbox One and to stay in touch with the games and gamers they like.

The mobile client will allow them to navigate the console using the phone’s keyboard and touch, control media content and set-top box with the SmartGlass remote control, and browse the web on their TVs.

Even when on the go, users will be able to find content and pin it to play on the Xbox One console. Not to mention that the app allows them to keep track of achievements, get game help, message friends, and watch game DVR clips.
