Alternate way to send guild message of the day?

I am playing on the xbox one and was wondering if there was an easier was to send the entire guild a message than using the in game single line viewer. Is it possible to do so from a pc or an app on the phone?

At the moment there is no alternative. On the pc people use an addon, but due to the nature of consoles add-ons there are not possible. There has been several posts in the general discussions part of the forum where players claimed that some functions provided from add-ons on pc are such a quality of life function that these functions should be available on the console too.

but besides a dev letting us know that he is "lurking" on of these posts (meaning he let us know that he is following what is being said without giving any personal or official opinion bout it), no official statement has been made.

I'm wondering if the xbox Smartglass app would be of help? I use it whenever I send in-game mail...so much better than using the joystick deal. I can't imagine that it wouldn't work for a guild update since you throw it to your screen.

That's a great idea. Haven't used the app I awhile. I will try it this weekend and post my findings

If writing the guild message of the day activates the Xbox keyboard thing that comes up then using the Smartglass app should work as long as it's connected to your Xbox on the same internet that your Xbox uses. And I say same internet because my router has two different frequencies that I can connect to, but if I want to use the Smartglass app I need to be on the same frequency as the Xbox and not the other. I use the app to write in game mail. Don't see why a guild message would be any different.

You can use the XBOX ONE app from PC or Phone to update MOTD. Confirmed 3/10/18.
