FAQ
-
Will I get banned for using this?
xCloud devs endorsed Better xCloud before and confirmed they "don't ban people for using a third party client or extension". As always, use it as your own risk. -
Why is it an Userscript and not an extension?
It's because not many browsers on Android/iOS support installing extensions (and not all extensions can be installed). -
Why doesn't the xCloud website implement this or that feature from Better xCloud?
Think of this project as an unofficial beta version of xCloud.- Better xCloud doesn't have to worry about the compatibility much: if it doesn't work on this browser, it can just suggest you switch to another one. xCloud can't do the same.
- On the xCloud's side, they have a lot more users and devices to support, so it's more difficult for them to implement a new feature.
- Also, it's not easy to explain some of the features of Better xCloud to normal xCloud users.

Can I use this with the Xbox Android app?
No, you can't. You'll have to modify the app. -
Will it be able to request a lower FPS or increase the maximum bitrate (15Mbps) of the stream?
Sorry, no. The server decides all these settings. -
What's the meaning behind the name "Better xCloud"?
It's a reference to an Userscript called "better360" that I created many years ago. I regret not choosing the name "xCloud Enhancement Suite", or XES for short.
