10 Massive Xbox One Secrets We All Missed

4. Playing Music In The Background

Such simplicity that many likely don’t know about. Playing music in the background while you blast and slash your way through your favourite video game is so easy. In fact, it’s literally as easy as turning on the music, then turning on a game. That’s it.

Head to your music player of choice, be it Pandora, Spotify, or perhaps some form of browser. Get your playlist on and leave it in the background. Choose a game and move on.

What’s even better is that, if you’re using Spotify, for example, you can use your phone to control what’s playing. Spotify has very easy device management, meaning you can play it through one output and control it with a separate input, such as a phone. Very handy if that playlist isn’t complete or you don’t want to be switching back and forth between apps.
