While we Mac users have long awaited Microsoft to give us an official Xbox app for MacOS (much like the Windows 10 version), I have been trying to find a way to emulate the Xbox app on Mac, for useful input into in-game text chat in games like Warframe when it can get very tiresome to use the app on a phone. Install Parsec on a Windows / Mac / Android (experimental) / Linux / Raspberry Pi machine for use as the client. Install Steam on the client computer, and configure the desktop profile for the steam controller as a gamepad with camera controls. Connect from your client using Parsec to your Windows 10 PC, and open the Xbox app. This awesome app brings Xbox One game streaming to macOS. It works as easily as connecting both your Mac and Xbox One to the same network and subsequently logging into Xbox Live. If you want to play Microsoft Xbox games on your Mac there are two easy ways to do so on your desktop. One is by running Windows on your Mac using Parallels and the other is via an app called OneCast. If you just want a cloud solution, you can also use Microsoft’s Xbox Game Pass service.
