Xbox One controllers can be a bit of a pain to keep charged, but thankfully there are ways to stop them from automatically turning off. Here are four tips:

  1. Keep your controller plugged in when not in use. This will help it stay charged and avoid the automatic shutoff.
  2. Set a timer so that your controller will turn off after a set amount of time has passed. This way you won’t have to worry about it constantly being plugged in, but you’ll still have some control over when it shuts down.
  3. Use an Xbox One controller charging dock if available. These devices will keep your controller topped off and ready to go, eliminating the need to constantly plug it in.
  4. Consider purchasing an Xbox One battery pack if you frequently find yourself away from an outlet or don’t want to bother with charging docks or timers. These packs can give you up to 12 hours of gameplay without needing to be plugged in ..
