- **Kiwi Browser** is the best choice on Android. All features work, it means you can get 1080p stream + high quality codec profile (the best possible quality).
- **Better xCloud** also works on Android TV, but you'll have to sideload the browser APK and need a bluetooth mouse if you want to interact with the Settings.

## Capture screenshot
- This feature is only available in **Better xCloud**.
- Works on both desktop & mobile, but it's designed for mobile users.
- Works on both desktop & mobile, but it was designed for mobile users.
- It's client-side only.
- It captures the current frame of the stream and save to a file. That means you won't get the raw quality like when you play on console, but it's still better than using the built-in screenshot feature on your phone.

## FAQ
1. **Will I get banned for using this?**
I think it's very unlikely that you'll get banned for using this. Most of the features only affect client-side, except for switching region of streaming server (you'll connect to another server instead of the default one). If you want to be safe just avoid using that. As always, use as your own risk.

2. **Why is it an Userscript and not extension?**

It's because not many browsers on Android support installing extensions (and not all extensions can be installed).
3. **I see "???" button instead of server's name**

That means Tampermonkey is not working properly. Please make sure you're using the latest version or switch to a well-known browser.
4. **Can I use this with the Xbox Android app?**
No you can't. You'll have to modify the app.
No, you can't. You'll have to modify the app.
5. **Will you able to enable "Clarity Boost" feature on non-Edge browsers?**
