The new Xbox Live iOS app is available for download now, Microsoft has announced.

As detailed by Major Nelson, it's a free universal app that lets you manage you Xbox Live profile from your Apple gizmo. Features include:

  • Read and send messages to friends
  • Manage your friends list, invite new friends
  • Read and Edit your full LIVE profile (name, bio, motto)
  • Change your avatar features/items with the avatar closet
  • View and compare your achievement progress with friends

Nelson also noted that the more fully-featured Xbox Companion for Windows Phone 7 is available now too.

All this activity ties in with the arrival last night of the new Xbox 360 dashboard, which brought with it a new interface, Bing search functionality and various Kinect features.
