Snap Mode, that gimmick on the Xbox One that let you “snap” something else onto the side of your screen while you were watching a movie or playing a game, is no more. Microsoft is ditching the feature to make the console’s dash run faster.

Snap will be removed as part of an Xbox One update that will be rolling out in a few months’ time, and which is also bringing stuff like an interesting new “copilot” mode.
