Yup, you can totally turn off your Xbox One while downloading a game! Just make sure you have Instant-On mode enabled in the power settings, so your downloads continue in the background.

Yes, but make sure your Xbox One is set to Instant-On mode. Otherwise, the download will pause until you turn it back on.

Of course! I always turn mine off mid-download and it picks right back up thanks to that sweet Instant-On mode.

Yeah, but switch to Instant-On mode or the download will stop when the console powers down.

In case you’re wondering, this is how it works:

Playbite makes money from (not super annoying) ads and (totally optional) in-app purchases. The app then uses that money to reward players like you with prizes!
