"Microsoft today detailed what gamers can expect in the next Xbox One update, which is expected to arrive in August. There are eight additions and changes the company has highlighted: activity feed updates, expanded Friends area on Home, mobile purchases, low battery notification, disable notifications during video, 3D Blu-ray, OneGuide in more countries, and last seen time in Friends list.\r\n\r\nFirst up, the activity feed interface is being changed to a single column scrolling list &amp;quot;that is longer and includes more content.&amp;quot; Gamers will gain the ability to post text to their feed, to &amp;quot;like&amp;quot; and comment on feed items, to share game clips and anything else publicly (to your activity feed) or privately (as an attachment to a message). You'll also get notifications when anyone likes, comments on, or shares your items.\r\n\r\nFurthermore, each user will get a personal feed on their profile, so you can see what specific friends have been up to. SmartGlass will get access to this new feature too: it will you see what your friends have shared to their activity feed and &amp;quot;like&amp;quot; specific posts (additional activity feed features will come in future SmartGlass updates). In short, this is the Facebook News Feed for your Xbox One.\r\n\r\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ovHyso_jy24\r\n\r\nSpeaking of what your friends are up to, the friends list will now show how long it's been since a friend has been online (for example, &amp;quot;Last seen 20m ago: Forza Motorsport 5.&amp;quot;). Furthermore, the Home area is getting an expanded section for friends that shows their current activity, the top trending games they're playing, and a leaderboard based on everyone's Gamerscore. This particular feature is being tested under an &amp;quot;extended preview,&amp;quot; so you might not get it as soon as everyone else \u2013 Microsoft still plans to &amp;quot;refine it until it's ready for the entire Xbox One market.&amp;quot;\r\n\r\nNext up, mobile purchases are a go. Using Xbox SmartGlass or directly on Xbox.com, you will be able to buy games and add-on content from your mobile device. The best part: if your console is set to automatically take updates, it will begin downloading your purchase even if you're not home.\r\n\r\nThe Xbox One is also getting a notification when your controller battery is getting low, the ability to disable notifications during video playback, and 3D Blu-ray support. Finally, the OneGuide is coming to Brazil, Mexico, Austria, and Ireland.\r\n\r\nIf you have early access to the Xbox One system update, you can expect to get this update &amp;quot;in the next week.&amp;quot; Microsoft says these features are mainly coming from the Xbox Feedback site it launched last month, and there is thus still a lot more to come."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
