Xbox Accessories

Xbox Accessories is the official Microsoft app for controlling and customizing the settings of Xbox controllers, including the Xbox Wireless Controller, Xbox Elite Wireless Controller, and Xbox Adaptive Controller.

With Xbox Accessories, you can customize the actions performed by each of the controller buttons. For example, you can change what each joystick does, customize the vibration levels, adjust the dead zone, or change the action associated with each button. You can also make small changes, such as adjusting the brightness of the Xbox logo on the central part of the controller.

From Xbox Accessories, you can also update the firmware of the controllers. From the settings, you can also activate the Copilot mode, in which two controllers are used as one. For example, in a driving game, one player may be in charge of accelerating and braking, while another player may be in charge of steering.

Another convenient option offered by Xbox Accessories is the possibility to create profiles. Thanks to this, you can have different settings for different types of games, or different players can have their own profiles set according to personal preferences. In total, you can make up to 256 different profiles, which are stored in the memory of the controller itself.

In short, if you're going to use your Xbox controller on PC, downloading Xbox Accessories is a must in order to get the best user experience.
