Microsoft's update to its Xbox app lets you can stream games from your console to your iPhone or iPad.

With the update comes a big new feature in remote play that lets you stream games from your Xbox One to your iPhone or iPad.

That service lets you play games on Android phones from the cloud, while this remote play function instead casts games from your Xbox One to your phone.

The former is a Netflix-esque service that lets you play hundreds of games for a $10 a month, while the latter lets you stream Xbox and PC games from the cloud on your Android devices.

The new app lets you download games to your console from your iPhone or iPad, so it's ready to play when you get home.
