Final Thoughts

I was very pleasantly surprised to see Microsoft release an app for the iPhone and the iPad, and on the same day no less as the Windows Phone app came out (although the apps are different and do different things).

There isn’t a great deal to the app, however what there is can be quite useful. You can see your friends, send them messages, compare games, check out your scores and achievements and even edit your avatar if you so wish.

It’s nice to be able to do that from somewhere other than right in front of your Xbox.

If you have an Xbox, and you use Xbox Live, and you have an iOS device, this is a really useful app to have.

Have you tried it? Let us know what you think of it.
