Is the xbox app on your phone worth setting up?

Got a Series X a few weeks ago and keep getting prompts to install the Xbox app. What do people actually use it for? Remote downloads, chat, grabbing clips?

Handy for checking storage and deleting games from your phone when a download won't fit, too. Saves walking back to the console.

Remote install alone makes it worth it. Buy or queue a game from your phone at work and it's downloaded by the time you get home. You also get messages and party chat, your clips and screenshots land on your phone without the usb faff, and you can remote play from the console if your wifi is decent.
