I have a 10 years old Xbox One, and every fucking time my family and I want to play a game, maybe once in a few months or so, it's always a struggle. Oh, let me download a few gigs of a system update. Oh, and the game you want to play needs an update too. Oh, and you are now logged out so go remember your password and type it using the controller. It's never a seamless experience that you would expect of a game console, which has one job: let the users play games.

You can use the Xbox app on your phone as a keyboard for the console. Or you can connect a physical keyboard.

Does the XBox not have an option for doing those updates in the background or when you aren't playing?
