Xbox One Dashboard (or System Updates) is the updatable software and operating system for the Xbox One.[4] The updates can be downloaded from the Xbox Live service directly to the Xbox One and subsequently installed, or by using offline recovery images downloaded via a PC.[3]

The system software consists of three operating systems,[1] located on the internal HDD for day-to-day usage, while also being duplicated on the internal NAND storage of the console for recovery purposes and factory reset functionality.

The Xbox One game system allows users to download applications that add to the functionality of the dashboard. Most apps require that the user be signed into a valid Xbox Live Gold account in order to use the features advertised for the given app.

The current public version of the Xbox One system software is 6.2.10217.0, released on December 10, 2013.[5]
