Xbox One can run four apps simultaneously, allows sign-in for 6 users
The firm was demonstrating the console’s somewhat less known features to Destructoid. Microsoft’s Albert Penello’s reportedly showed the console’s ability to run four applications simultaneously. It’ll only run one game at at a time, rather obivously.
Switching between apps is similar to mobile functionality, with the OS allowing you to choose between boxes represent apps or games on the home screen.
Xbox One will support multiple sign-ins, with up to six users live at once. Kinect will decide the leader based on who’s holding the controller. Kinect will also recognize your voice among others in the room and launch games with your saves and settings.
Furthermore, Kinect will allow you to sign-in by just waving your hands, and will then pull all your details and saves from the cloud to the console.

Georgasm Doubt anyone will need four apps running at once.
True, but I like how they're adding it. I'd like to listen to music while gaming and say you're playing CoD and you're waiting for the game to start you can switch to another app. Pretty convenient if you ask me.

Maybe it would be cool for some people to play their music while they game.

PashtunHDITeRRoRiZeI I'm having doubts about this consoles GPU and CPU power compared to PS4...Yeah the PS4 is 50% more powerful according to multiple devs.
But still 4 apps continuously at once and 6 sign ins that's not bad for any console knowing me it would be Netflix game Internet Explorer etc.

The Xbox I think is biting off a little bit more than they can chew. With the new console.
