Xbox 360 SmartGlass App Gets Android Update

SmartGlass technology on Android devices is getting even smarter this week, with the Xbox 360 companion features arriving on more phones and tablets, complete with new features to make your two-screen entertainment experience better than ever.
This announcement comes directly from the Major Nelson Blog, where the team over at Xbox have unleashed a handful of new features for Android SmartGlass users to enjoy.
“We're rolling out an Xbox SmartGlass update to Android devices this week with new features and design updates,” reads the blog post. “The power of companion scenarios continue to come to life in new ways with Xbox SmartGlass, enabling your PC, tablet and smartphone to connect to your Xbox console in an intelligent way.”
I believe you mean in a “smart” way, Sr. Nelson.
Either way, you can grab the app now directly from the Google Play Store. These new update includes support for 10-inch Android tablets, an activity browser link that lets you open a web browser from in-app, expanded messaging for use with your Xbox Live friends, an “Awake” state that will keep the device on while the app is running and an all new streamlined design that should help make the app easier to use.
