The July firmware update for the Xbox One is nearly on the verge of release and will add some fairly interesting features to the mix. This includes the ability to Snap Achievements while playing a game and even track Achievements in the process. So if you’re curious how many more zombies you need to kill in order to unlock that next Achievement in Dead Rising 3, this is the best way to do it.

The update also adds a new Double-Tap to Snap feature. Simply tap on the Xbox button to bring up the Snap Center and you’ll be able to Snap whatever apps you want. You can also use it to switch between the game you’re playing and the app snapped.

There are other features incoming including enhanced voice support for select regions to stay tuned for more information. What are your thoughts on the July update? Let us know in the comments.
