The Xbox One’s voice commands, while generally excellent, have a problem. OK, two problems. The smaller one is they don’t always work. The bigger one is that you need to memorise a chart like this just to be able to use them properly.

I will never understand why you say “Xbox on”, but not “Xbox off”. Mr Miyagi would be very disappointed.
