As far as I can tell, the major net result of this new Xbox (Beta) app seems to be to restrict most everything to gamepass only games as well as remove the one useful function. Game streaming to your PC. I used to use this all the time to play games on Xbox while my family watched TV via the passthrough. There seems to be no way to do this on the new app, the old app just directs you to the new app, and nobody at Microsoft seems to know anything about it.
