The new interface includes access to a web version of Xbox Party chat, so you can use a browser to join a call with friends instead of the Xbox desktop and mobile apps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>The updated web interface also includes the ability to search and manage Xbox friends, send messages, view user profiles and achievements, and even access notifications<\/strong>.
