How do I see game activity on Xbox app PC?

If you’re wondering how to view your Xbox activity on your PC, this article is for you! Microsoft’s Xbox app is designed to bring your console experience to your computer, and one of its main features is to display game activity. This article will walk you through the step-by-step process of configuring and viewing game activity on the Xbox app PC.

Configure Your Activity Settings

To begin, ensure that you’re signed into the Xbox app on your Windows device. Then, select your gamertag from the top-left corner and click on "Settings" > "Account" from the menu.

In the "Others can see your PC game activity" section, select the desired setting:

• Private: Only your Xbox friend can see your game activity.
• Friends-only: Your game activity can be seen by your friends and people in your club.
• Public: Anyone can see your game activity.

Click "OK" to save your settings.

Open the Xbox App

After configuring your activity settings, open the Xbox app on your Windows device. The app may prompt you to sign in if you’re not already logged in.

Find Game Activity

To access game activity, follow these steps:

• Step 1: Select the three horizontal lines icon (resembling a burger menu) on the top-left corner of the Xbox app’s home screen.

• Step 2: Hover your mouse cursor over the "My Games & apps" section, and a drop-down menu will appear. Click on "Recent games" to view the games you’ve played in the past hour.

Alternatively, you can click on "My game history" from the dropdown menu to view a detailed list of your played games.

• Step 3: On the recent games section, you can filter game activity by Time Range (today, week, month) and Activity Type (Game Play, Downloads, Demos).

This section displays various metrics, such as gameplay hours, and your player count.

• Additional Information: Click the game title to visit its Microsoft Store page and check for any available updates. You can also search for the game by entering its name in the top-right search bar.

• View game details for more in-depth stats on your playtime and game performance. Here, you can toggle the switch next to each metric (e.g., Graph) to change the unit of measurement or toggle graph displays.

To exit, simply click on the three horizontal lines icon (same as Step 1).

View System Performance Stats

To gain insight into your system performance, check out the Xbox app’s system performance tab. Under this section, you can:

• Monitor RAM Usage: Get a brief overview of how much of your system RAM is allocated for gaming and other functions.
• GPU (Graphics Processing Unit): Review your graphics card’s performance and check for any overclocking or performance-related settings.

Check for updates and troubleshoot

Additionally, the Xbox app provides access to Update and Restart, Update Now, and Check for problems and troubleshoot for various system, game, or app updates and glitches.

Takedown

It’s always important to stay safe when using social media platforms or online networks. Be mindful of third-party apps that claim to access your gaming data.
