It’s a great time to be a member of the Xbox Insider Program, as Microsoft recently released two preview builds to both Alpha Ring, and Ring 3 Xbox Insiders. Alpha Ring members will see a new Activity Report feature in this preview build, and Ring 3 members will see some of the social features which were already being tested on other Rings of the program. As usual, we’ve included all the details for you below.

If your console is in Instant-On mode and you have been selected to receive these updates, it will download and install the update and reboot to standby. Once the update is available, you also can manually begin the install process by launching the Guide and navigating to All Settings > System > Updates. If Ring 3 members have not installed the update by 1:00AM PDT on 4/2/2017, they will be prompted to update, and if Release Preview members have not installed the update by 1:00AM PDT on 4/6/2017 they also will be prompted to manually update.
