Family Sharing could return to Xbox One, says Microsoft's Whitten
"We need to do more work to talk about what we're doing because I think that we did something different than maybe how people are perceiving it." For one thing, he said, Family Sharing isn't necessarily gone for good. "If [Family Sharing] is something that people are really excited about and want, we're going to make sure that we find the right way to bring it back." It would require additional engineering to enable Family Sharing after always-online was dropped, so the feature was removed from the Xbox One launch window.
Whitten said Microsoft "learned a lot of lessons" over the course of the Xbox One's reveal, and the company will be "engaging more with the community" going forward. "I think it's the number one thing I'd want to do if I went back, was have the conversation more open and more complete."

G9H I used this feature a lot it should come back with popular demand.
I think that it would be pretty cool for this feature to be brought back to the Xbox One. I've never used it before yet it sounds helpful

Jakeston This would be one of the better features they've integrated.
Yeah, I hope that this feature will make a return to the Xbox One.
