Your Xbox One is becoming a little nicer today.

The April system update for Microsoft’s flagship console adds a few interface improvements. Notably, party chat is getting built-in troubleshooting, which should help people who have a hard time connecting with their friends.

The update is rolling out today, so you should be able to download it soon. You can read more about it on Xbox Wire.

Also, notifications for Achievements will now show you a description of what you earn, so you’ll know exactly what it is you did. The Xbox One also has a new What’s On area that has links to popular games, movies, TV shows, videos, and clips.

Other features, like voice messaging and dedicated servers for party chat, are not coming with this update. Instead, they will remain only available to those with preview access as Microsoft continues to work on them.
