What’s better than having a huge game library on your Xbox One? Two huge game libraries, of course!

If you have someone who you trust with your Microsoft account, you can both enjoy each other’s digital back-log of games by changing your Home Xbox.

All you have to do is sign in to your friend’s account on your Xbox One, hit the Xbox Home button to bring up the guide, then click Profile & System>Settings>General>Personalisation>My Home Xbox, and then make your Xbox One their Home console. They do the same with your account, and now you both have access to each other’s digital game library. Just make sure to download their games on their own profile, or this handy trick won’t work.

You will both have access to anything else bought on each other’s account, so you can share movies and Tv shows, as well as games. You could even go one step further and agree to split the cost of a game and gain access to a new release for half the price.
