Setting up the Xbox Series S proved to be a streamlined process, thanks in no small part to the new-and-improved Xbox app for Android and iOS.

Initial setup is a doddle, especially if you use the Xbox mobile app on iOS or Android. That way you can sign into your Microsoft account and set the console updating and transferring without having to navigate an on-screen keyboard using the controller.

Based on reviews posted on popular review sites as well as from Sony Playstation 4 Pro's website, Sony Playstation 4 Pro performs very well in terms of companion app relative to other video game console stores.

One reviewer on pcmag.com said Sony Playstation 4 Pro performs well on companion app relative to its peers. You can read the full review here. Here's a brief quote from this review:

You can also use PlayStation App to navigate PlayStation 4, which comes in handy when gaming or simply firing up a Blu-ray flick. Additionally, PlayStation app users can input text into dialog boxes such as username and password areas. Using my phone to input text was far, far more intuitive than hunting and clicking using the PlayStation 4 controller and onscreen keyboard.

One reviewer on engadget.com said Sony Playstation 4 Pro performs well on companion app relative to its peers. You can read the full review here. Here's a brief quote from this review:

Sony has released an overhauled PlayStation App for Android and iOS that not only drags the look into the modern era, but borrows more than a few cues from social networking apps. It's dominated by a Facebook-style "what's new" feed that puts your friends' PS4 activity front and center, and clearly does much more to encourage comments and sharing. Even profiles have a more social look, and you get quicker access to your friends list and notifications.

I think that the PS4 companion is great. I'm able to easily see what friends of mine are online, and also send them a message directly from the app. You're able to see your trophies and redeem codes in the app. You can also add and remove friends directly in the app. The app also allows you to use your phone or tablet as a second screen, which is great as you have access to a full keyboard when you need to type a message or redeem codes, which is a lot faster and easier than using the on-screen keyboard directly from the PS. Overall, I really like the features of the companion app and if you have a PS it is definitely recommended that you download it.

Based on ratings published by trusted online review sites as well as information from Nintendo Switch Lite's website, Nintendo Switch Lite performs average to better than average in terms of companion app compared to other video game console stores.

Based on a review posted on trustedreviews.com, Nintendo Switch Lite was rated as fairly average for companion app relative to competing video game console stores. Check out the entire review here. From this review:

Nintendo hasn’t launched its online service yet and what’s currently in place is pretty ropey. You can add friends you’ve met on Nintendo’s mobile apps or use those dreadful, old-fashioned Friend Codes, but features to add people more organically or using social media still haven’t emerged. It also seems bizarre that you have to use a smartphone app for voice chat and game invites. We’re hoping Nintendo will up its game when the Nintendo Switch Online service finally launches in September.
