XBOX One: Add new account
With Microsoft's XBOX One, you can add a new account at any time. We show you in our practical tip that this is not too difficult.
Create a new XBOX One account
Microsoft recommends creating a "family" on the XBOX One so that you have a better overview of the accounts and, above all, can better manage the security options for your children. In our example, we therefore also assume a "family".
- First log in to XBOX Live.
- Then tap the menu button on your controller and go to the "Settings" on the console.
- In the "Family" area, choose the "Add to Family" option.
- If the new member already has an XBOX Live profile, select the account and then enter the corresponding Microsoft account and password.
- Finally click on "Add to family" again.
- If the new member does not yet have an Xbox Live profile, you must first create an XBOX Live account. To do this, click on the "Add new" button and follow the steps on the television. After that, you can add the new account as above.
- Note: If the new member is a child, parental consent is required before you can add the new account to XBOX One.
