You may have heard about the companion app for the Xbox that was released for Windows 8 and Windows Phone 8. It allows you to control media playback, browse the Web and act as a second screen in supported games. Pretty handy in my opinion.
When it was announced Microsoft added that it would come to Android and iOS in due course. The Android release was the other week and now it’s the turn of iOS. Head over to the Appstore link at the bottom on your device and rest is easy.
