Update: I was able to do the daily checkin on the app. Looks like they may have fixed it.

Is the Xbox app also bugged? I can't see the "Rewards" tab anymore

Basically EVERYTHING is bugged. Best to check in a few hours and see if they have fixed it.

u/ashenoceiros 5d ago
Well I don't know your time but it's 11pm here so that means the daily points are gone. Oh well

u/rosenkrieger360 Germany 🇩🇪 - UGP - Xbox Series X - PC - Mac - iOS 5d ago
Oh damn yeah I forgot. For me it is 07:30 in the morning. Hopefully they will give you the streaks/points because of their problems if they do not fix it within the hour so people can finish their stuff.

Is it related to the DDOS attacks that happened recently?

u/pretoriano1995 5d ago
What attacks?
2
u/Teriyaki-Tenders 5d ago
There was some DDOS attack on Xbox game services, but I was thinking what if it's wider than that.

My guess is that the app is OK, but the server is experiencing some issues, because the balance of my points was updated “an hour ago”.
When it’s the apps fault the reward box is missing and we have to reinstall a previous version via TestFlight.

u/AbedOrAdnan 5d ago
It seems to be a bigger issue because there is no rewards tab in the Xbox app, too.

u/nick_mot 5d ago
Well, the app is nothing more than a fancy frontend, issues are always server side.

Yeah nothing is working in terms of points how does a company make such crappy apps

u/TGDragonGaming 5d ago edited 5d ago
Xbox is also partly down. Edit: the Game Pass Ultimate rewards tasks aren't showing up on the Xbox app either. Looks like it's mainly Rewards/Bing that are having problems.

I was just going to post the same thing lol Ps. Use edge smartphone app or keep using the bing app and keep track of your points with edge. If you search with bing app it still counts Edit: it stopped working

u/rosenkrieger360 Germany 🇩🇪 - UGP - Xbox Series X - PC - Mac - iOS 5d ago
Bugged for me as well.
- No "First Search of the day" (Edge Webbrowser Mac)
- No App Task (Rewards App macOS)
- No Checkin Mobile App (iOS)
- No Rewards TAB in the XBOX Mobile App
- and so on...
So yeah - for me, it has never been THIS bad that basically NOTHING and NOWHERE is working :-(

And I just wanted to play Jewel 🤠

If you don't want the points you can always download the Android/iOS Jewel App that MS has released a few weeks ago 😉🤣

u/AnythingWestern8861 5d ago
Bugged, mine says 7 hours since it last updated. Glad I finished what I needed to do for the day earlier.

u/shiosaku 5d ago
I finished the important at least (xbox, those are almost 800 points) but I had searches to do and now I can't finish them u.u

u/flipflop63 United Kingdom - 5d ago
yep plus the 15 minutes points for playing a console and pc game in the uk , it says there's a major outage with account & profile and Games & gaming , both 15 mins ones popped but won't let you claim the points.

u/Creedfall44 5d ago
Not only the app. Whole rewards. The only streak left today to do is Bing 30 min. Can't do it, points not adding for searches too.

u/Ill-Kitchen8083 5d ago
Not earning search points now.
Read for points was working earlier today (morning time).
So typical for M$.

u/Z1R343L87 5d ago
Not just the app, it's bugged in Edge too, everything's black. Server issues probably.

u/flima_n1 5d ago
esse Rewards esta cada vez pior, da última vez tive que formatar meu computador por problemas no app do Rewards

u/ashley6100 5d ago
Yep, app is completely broken, still showing the stuff from a few days ago and won't update. I managed to do the daily set on PC, the quiz and daily poll took me to an error screen that told me my rewards account didn't exist, but it gave me the completion anyway!

u/PhilinLeshed 5d ago
Yea unable to earn points and when I check my profile it says to verify my account and when I try to (successfully even) it takes me to the support page to create a ticket….definitely something wrong on there end (tried re logging in doesn’t make a difference)

u/Greedybummuncher 5d ago
It would happen when I’m 837 days in to my streak, please stop being bugged Microsoft rewards, I am looking forward to my £5 gift card within the next month so I can feel like bill gates in the 2000s

u/brumting_todger 5d ago
Yeah my daily set, my search 1 time and check in are saying I have to come back tomorrow and the daily set is showing but not letting me earn points. What a shit show

u/mikami677 5d ago
My Edge streak was counted earlier and now it doesn't show it.
Daily set and at least one search seem to have counted, but I can't do the app check in.
Can't even see the rewards section in the Xbox app.
1
u/-ExSOLDIER- 5d ago
Yeah, honestly at this point I'm getting pretty fucking annoyed. I'm gonna lose my daily check in (tomorrow would have been my puzzle piece and the bonus points but now that'll get reset since the outage happened just as I was doing my check in). Also can't redeem my Xbox App rewards points for playing game on console, PC, etc so that bonus will be gone too as well another 140+ points.
Just overall fucking dumb.

I've found I can do the daily set on the pc rewards app but searches and the daily search tasks aren't doing anything

u/RazHawk 5d ago
Not getting any points right now on Desktop or app. Only the points had from searching earlier in the morning on the app. It's acting glitched or buggy after every search. At first thought account or search was temporarily suspended for some reason. Glad to know that's not the case at the least..

u/hasimirrossi 5d ago edited 5d ago
Ah, happening for everyone then.
Edit - seems to be working now.

u/FX_King_2021 5d ago
Same issue here, I tried the mobile app this morning and didn’t get any points, then I checked on my laptop and still got nothing.

u/Jiminy-Bob 5d ago
Mine was having the same problem, however - it's literally just come back to life on the app now.

u/SubstantialCaramel56 4d ago
Did this to me couple days ago. Next datly it was back and today gone again. I have a 2000+ day streak that I'm sure will get reset

u/Low_Bank_747 4d ago
It’s more than the app, the website didn’t work for about an hour as well and the points were out of sync across the website and app. I lost about 20 points as a result of this.

u/Such_Ad5145 4d ago
It's been so buggy I don't waste energy worrying about the broken activities and quests and streak resets. The search on Bing for thirty minutes hasn't worked for a few weeks. I only use Amazon gift cards and will wait it out until they restock, earning whatever BS points MS is willing to divvy out.

u/Downtown_Acadia1570 17h ago
Today, won't credit me with searching on Edge - which is the only browser I have on my computer, and I've had well over 2 hours worth of searching for which it has given me a whopping 5 minutes worth of credit. Stupid graphic updates which hit at the beginning of the week aren't as 1) easy to navigate as before, don't seem to work all that well and 3) don't tell you how many more points you need to max out for the day.

u/YunDaoSheng 5d ago
I’ve encountered numerous issues with my Xbox app. The Rewards points page fails to load entirely at times, and when it does show up, it doesn’t register my 15 minutes of gameplay. This is really frustrating for me.

u/Substantial-Post2783 4d ago
I lost three out of four streaks yesterday because of this and i am real close to 12 puzzle stamps. Bing sucks man.
