Microsoft Xbox Series X and S game handle hidden feature can easily switch paired devices
For the users of Xbox Series X/S, controller to play games, it is a good feature to easily switch the controller between Xbox, PC, and mobile devices.
It was mentioned on Reddit a few months ago that it was not noticed until a Twitter user emphasized it again yesterday.
The Twitter user said, Do you often switch between Xbox consoles and PCs and mobile devices to use Xbox Series X / S controllers? The Xbox Series X / S controller can remember to synchronize!
To use this feature, just follow the steps below:
- Press and hold the sync key to bring up the last PC/mobile device (2-3 flashes)
- Press the sync button twice to switch back to Xbox (1 flash)

-> Hold "sync" to recall last mobile/PC device (flashing 2-3x)
-> Double-tap "sync" to switch back to your #Xbox (flash once)#XboxSeriesX pic.twitter.com/0avzjoOdre— Timo Wolf (@OmitFlow) February 8, 2021
This method is only suitable for switching between Xbox consoles and Bluetooth devices, and not for switching between Xbox consoles and wireless adapters.
This function does not currently have any official documentation, but it is actually available. However, this feature is only applicable to Xbox Series X/S controllers, the previous version of the controller does not have this function.
