Parents that do UA-cam truley care about helping others... And the I've had put in some hrs on a game, just to have them sign on, and lose all progress.... Just deflating , but gotta keep on going... This will make my son happy.
Yes. The parent does NOT have to be signed into the HOME Xbox. So you won't get checked out of the main Xbox *(i.e. your Xbox which is not the HOME Xbox) when your son signs into his Xbox (which is the HOME Xbox).
@@CliveIllenden this did not work for me. My xbox that my nephew plays on, when he is with me, is set to My home xbox so he can use my game pass. When he is on his profile he cannot play my games as it makes him need his own game pass. So he has to sign in under me to access my games and play. Which forces me out of my personal xbox, which is set to his home xbox. I've tried many youtube videos and called microsoft with no resolution to the problem.
@@shannonburdick6149 make sure the other Xbox is not set to Home Xbox. If he's just using your Xbox then you just need to be signed in, and then he signs in as himself.
you just saved me $15 bucks a month, so both my kids could play. We had followed some instruction by someone and both machines were set to "home" box, once we took the original machine off of "home" the newer one worked. My kids are happy and so am i. Couldn't see spending 30 bucks a month so they could both play. Thank you!
Thanks for this, I've spent the last 2 hours trying to sort out my son's xbox, so that we could use the same subscription. Wish I'd come across this video first.
@@macduff1699 Whoever has the LIVE GOLD account needs to first sign into the "other" Xbox (say your friends) - and set it up to be HOME XBOX for the LIVE GOLD account holder. Once that is done, your friend just signs into that Xbox under his own account (and because it is the "HOME XBOX" of the LIVE GOLD account holder "ie You) they will be able to access LIVE GOLD etc ...meanwhile you can sign into ANY Xbox and it will know you have LIVE GOLD and give you access to it as normal. Hope that makes sense.
@@CliveIllenden thanks for replying Clive ✌️, by signing in do you mean like when you sign in to your friends Xbox to play a game together or isit different from that way and sorry for being so thick 🤣
You and a few other UA-camrs who helped with this issue are life savers. At first these instructions didn't work for me but after I soft reset my Xbox it works perfectly. I knew something was wrong because my old Xbox was not connected and would not connect to the app. Which led me to the idea of doing a soft reset of the system
Thank you very much for this detailed explanation. After watching a lot of videos and reading stuff you were the first one to explain the two XBox sharing scenario in a way that I got it
@@CliveIllenden my brother has his own xbox and so do i. my brother is the one with gold on his account. i ran out of gold. both of us have been using two different subscriptions and want it to be one now. since my brother has the xbox with the gold on his account and my xbox doesn’t. should i make his xbox the home xbox or my xbox the home xbox with his account on it. thank you.
@@davidmacneil4765 Your brother (as LIVE GOLD Account holder) needs to make YOUR Xbox the Home Xbox under his account. and then make sure his Xbox is NOT set as HOME XBox.
Man you saved me! Damn I was going crazy on Microsoft support page then I save this video and I wonder why Microsoft doesn’t hire you to make tutorials 👍🏼
Tip: To avoid the “son signing you out” issue altogether, simply remove your account from his XBOX after doing the steps you described Your sharing setup will still work even without your account on his XBOX You can always add it back in later if you want to
I tried that with my living room Xbox and it didn’t worked unless I was signed in, then as soon as I got on my Xbox down stairs it kicked them out of my Xbox live account
The only video that actually demonstrates with 2 different accounts and consoles.. kudos to you cause this whole who should login where and which one to make primary is just as confusing to me as it was is PS5 lol
This problem has been plaguing me for a while now, and I haven't found online explanations helpful at all... until I found this video! Thank you for your clarity and excellent presentation!
Its Christmas Day two years later. I just upgraded my Xbox with series S, and got another for my wife. 12 hours later I find your video. Was amazingly helpful and solved problem within minutes!! Thank you!!! Boy they sure don’t make it intuitive!!!!
Ive been doing this since it was available, Kids just got the new Series X for Christmas and i forgot how to set it up - Thanks for the Video. Merry Christmas.
A tip to not get booted when the Home XBOX (sons) sign on, Under controller settings you can assign the Controller to a Profile, if your sons Controller is linked to his profile it will automatically sign into his, not yours. This should prevent you from losing time because you didnt save.
Brilliant tip buddy. How would this work if my son starts up the xbox downstairs to play, by turning on his remote, but his controller is paired to the upstairs HOME xbox? Would both xbox's power on at the same time, meaning designated controllers are needed for each consol ?
@@coffeeandvapes1308 no idea honestly, I suggest just testing it. I have dedicated controllers for each console. I will say that the controller will only turn on whatever Xbox it is currently paired to at that time. I think the profile login does go with the controller though if its on both consoles? If you have 2 Xboxs you can just mess around with it. I have a long USB on my Xbox, when I want to switch consoles I just plug it in and it syncs like that, instead of trying to pair with Bluetooth every time.
I did this once but never told them to make another account, and it went bad because I couldn't play when they did. But I just gave my brother my system and this information is a blessing, thanks.
Thank you a great deal for putting together this video. You've explained everything perfectly. It's great that you took the time to do this. Perfect video.
Thanks so much! I've spent the entire morning trying to get it sorted and yours is the only video or article that actually make sense! We're all set up now thanks to you.
I subscribed cuz of this video I searched UA-cam for info on this and everyone seems to leave out the way to have 2 xboxs same account everyone plays. You made it as clear and straight forward as possible. Pretty much you slowed it down and dumbed it down as much as possible for me to at least understand lol. Thank you.
do you have another xbox console that’s a past generation like an xbox one? because i’m going to get a series x and i already have an xbox one and my family still plans on using both and we want to use the same gold account. Did it work?
Very helpful thank you for walking through that very easy to follow.Being the dad in my scenario I am curious if your son l has access to be able to use cloud Of his game, progress and data this setup? That’s one of the best features when you have multiple boxes in the home. Thanks again for this video.
Watched a few videos before this one and you're by far the easiest to understand. So thank you for speaking English. Haha. I did learn something from the other videos that I thought I'd share. You can sign your gamer tag out of your son's(Home XBOX) Xbox without it affecting the the gold status or game sharing. Eliminating the chance that he signs in as you on his Xbox and kicks you off of yours. I'm currently waiting on my 2nd Xbox to arrive to hook all this up and test but they all say it works just fine. Thanks again!
Hey, my brother and I have two xboxes in the same house and we play on different accounts but only one account has the subscription to xbox live, and we would like to play gta together, how could we do it?
If GTA is available through Xbox Game Pass (as it sometimes is) then yes - only one of you needs to own it. But, if it is NOT on XBox game pass you'd both need a copy - but you'll be able to play together.
I’m new to the Xbox realm and found this video extremely helpful as I have 2 Xbox’s and want them both to be able to play and use my Xbox gold pass. Thank you so much.
Thank you sir. This is the best video with best explanation. You’re the only one who’s explaining that you should leave the designated xbox as the home Xbox! Very helpful. Thank you
You have no idea how much I appreciate this, the bickering between my children has been unbelievable. Thank you for making so much more sense than Xbox!
GREAT VIDEO we have been overpay for xbox subscriptions for the two xboxes in out home. Thank you! Me and the wife can now play our games on one subscription! Great vid.
@@macduff1699 really works now? It didn't work for me a few years back, we had to bring the other console and hook it up to the same wifi and then it worked.
Thanks for explaining in such a concise manner. Just got to figure out how to game on the Game Pass cloud whilst the two Xboxes are being used.........
Fantastic video. Life saver over school summer holidays. Ive been doing it the opposite way around and wondering why they can’t play same game at same time 🤦🏻♂️
hey i am logging in to my seperate xbox but i am not getting the msg signed out and the account is running on both the xbox's i have not made it home xbox or anything can you tell me why is it so ?
Hi, if I were to do this can the actual account holder aka me be playing on my account at the same time my friend who needs to sign into my account to get the xbox live play without it signing me out and then when I sign back in it signs him out?
I think I understand the question. As I said in the video, if you (as Gold Account Holder - playing on the non-Home Xbox) are in the middle of a game, and the other player signs into your HOME Xbox - it "temporarily signs" you into that HOME Xbox - thus signing you out of the non-Home Xbox you're playjng on. All you have to do is sign back into the non-Home Xbox, and you both can carry on playing on same Gold account. (it is the one downside to be aware if you're in the middle of a game).
Ive tried doing this and it doesnt work. Ive changed the home to a different xbox and my live works on this other console but my daughters gaming tag tells me to sign into a live profile to play call of duty..my live works but it says to sign into a live profile when i use my daughters ..someone please help 😢
I'm presuming you own the LIVE account? Make sure that your daughter's XBOX is set to HOME XBOX for your LIVE account. Make sure that YOUR Xbox is NOT set to HOME Xbox. Sign into your Daughter's Xbox (under your account) and check whether you can play COD. Your daughter should be able to then sign into her Xbox (under her account) and play it.
@@CliveIllenden ur freaakin awesome! I finally figured it out..i went on my xbox to see if i was the home xbox..it wasnt but it just worked after that..thank u sooo much esp for responding sooo fast too!
Well explained :) I think Xbox should make a way to where Xbox’s on the same internet can be considered as one Xbox. This is helpful and I think it’s annoying that on the “daddy’s Xbox” if you want to play on any account other than the main account then you have to have the main account signed in at the same time but I guess that’s going to be fine. Thanks man also I’m not sure if you solved this problem but if you go to your sons Xbox, go to settings, go to “Sign in, security, & passkey, then you can click “instant sign in,” nobody. Then you won’t be signed in automatically on his Xbox. Thanks :)
I was really excited until you said the child would kick me off automatically if they just went on the “HOME” Xbox without telling me. Not going to work for the child here, he’d never check first. He suffers from Fortnite tunnel vision. He goes from that front door, to that Xbox controller, and the entire house could be on fire around him. So that 8 yo can just go out and get a job and buy his own Xbox live gold. 😂
Thanks Clive, it’s worked with my Xbox One X vs Xbox One S. But i bought a New Xbox series X and i did the same. But this doesn’t work. Do you know this is working with the Xbox series X also?
Awesome. Thanks for the clear vid. Just a question. Bout to unpack my sons xbox. Should the initial set up on his xbox be with my logins? Then from here make it the home xbox?
Just found this cause my daughter taking over my old Xbox…but my question is can we both play diff games at the same time…or do I HAVE to create an account for her then follow your steps?
@@douxboy it assumes your daughter has her own Xbox account. Then you can play different games at the same time, independent of each other, or, play in the same multiplayer game
You lad..... You are the GOAT! This just helped me immensely in trying to do something with both my xboxs and couldn't figure out for the life of me a workaround. You've just made my night and gaming time better. Thanks much :)
Thanks bro u literally saved me having to buy xbox live on my new series x that already cost €500 but I came across a solution for u. Set ur account to needing a key pin on your sons xbox so that it doesn’t automatically sign in on his xbox on ur account so u don’t get kicked, I hope u c this so I can help u the way u did me😊😊
Thank you so much, I read about the home consoles thing it but didn’t work, however after following your steps it did! Saved us a lot of time on Christmas!
Wow you explained everything in very fine detail! Thank you so much for explaining, your much more better explaining to us than Microsoft themselves! Take care!
Among the 5 videos i've watched, you were the best ! some people try to explain simple things in their own technical language, but boy, you need an MIT diploma to understand them ! LOL. Had the same pattern, 2 houses, 2 xbox, daddy and son. Now it works. Thx
Awesome video 👍 only bit i got stuck on was after I'd set my sons xbox to home and i tried to sign in on mine, it wouldn't allow me play any games. Found out it was bringing up an option menu on sons xbox asking if you do want to sign out or not, he was selecting no (as thought it was his profile) by time i'd gone upstairs to check it was off screen 😂 .then he told me about menu option and waited to show me. Signed out on his and now all working fine 👍 one xbox live and gamepass used on 2 consoles and 2 accounts 👍 thank you
Hi there, great video thanks, my issue is I have the Xbox live account and don’t play, the XBoxes are my two son’s Xbox One and Series S, the Xbox one was the first machine. Which one do I set as home and will I need to be signed into one of them for them to have full playability? Cheers Anthony

Great video, just bought new console for my eldest son, my younger son inherited old console. But We have 1 ultimate account.
Just found this cause my daughter taking over my old Xbox…but my question is can we both play diff games at the same time…or do I HAVE to create an account for her then follow your steps?
@@douxboy it assumes your daughter has her own Xbox account. Then you can play different games at the same time, independent of each other, or, play in the same multiplayer game
You lad..... You are the GOAT! This just helped me immensely in trying to do something with both my xboxs and couldn't figure out for the life of me a workaround. You've just made my night and gaming time better. Thanks much :)
DUDE you are AWESOME!!!!! I've been trying to do this for so long but no one was able to answer my question. You are awesome!
Very useful, but do you need 2 disks, or can u play the same exact game at the same time???
Thanks bro u literally saved me having to buy xbox live on my new series x that already cost €500 but I came across a solution for u. Set ur account to needing a key pin on your sons xbox so that it doesn’t automatically sign in on his xbox on ur account so u don’t get kicked, I hope u c this so I can help u the way u did me😊😊
Thank you so much my family was about to spend another 120$ a year but this definitely helped us out.
Glad I could help!
Thank you so much, I read about the home consoles thing it but didn’t work, however after following your steps it did! Saved us a lot of time on Christmas!
Thanks so much! Just got a series s and this explanation is extremely helpful!
After hours searching for help this is the most useful video. Thanks man
THANK YOU SO MUCH I WAS SO FRUSTRATED TRYING TO FIND A VIDEO TO HELP
You are the best man thank you for you hard work 🙏
Actually solved my problem. Thank you.

Glad it helped 👍
You’re a bloody legend mate, thankyou so much. Earned yourself a sub
Awesome. Glad it helped 👍
OMG YOU ARE A LIFE SAVER, WHY DO THEY HAVE TO MAKE THINGS SO DIFFICULT FOR PEOPLE 😒
Among the 5 videos i've watched, you were the best ! some people try to explain simple things in their own technical language, but boy, you need an MIT diploma to understand them ! LOL. Had the same pattern, 2 houses, 2 xbox, daddy and son. Now it works. Thx
Awesome video 👍 only bit i got stuck on was after I'd set my sons xbox to home and i tried to sign in on mine, it wouldn't allow me play any games. Found out it was bringing up an option menu on sons xbox asking if you do want to sign out or not, he was selecting no (as thought it was his profile) by time i'd gone upstairs to check it was off screen 😂 .then he told me about menu option and waited to show me. Signed out on his and now all working fine 👍 one xbox live and gamepass used on 2 consoles and 2 accounts 👍 thank you
Took me a bit also because when I set my sons xbox to home I was in his account so it wasn't working haha
Thanks a lot. Saved me a lot of time to go through shitty Microsoft documentation..
Hi there, great video thanks, my issue is I have the Xbox live account and don’t play, the XBoxes are my two son’s Xbox One and Series S, the Xbox one was the first machine. Which one do I set as home and will I need to be signed into one of them for them to have full playability? Cheers Anthony
