I was playing Minecraft Bedrock Edition on my pc, just trying to chill, when I decided to check out that Xbox console companion application I recently installed. I saw a message saying: 'Loudland2570785 online playing Minecraft for Nintendo switch' I was quite bored, so I decided to play with my friend. I clicked off onto my Minecraft screen on which a message was put right in front of my eyes: 'your friends are not playing Minecraft right now.' My Microsoft account is perfectly signed in. I'm using the same one for both the console companion and the game. My game is 100% updated (1.16.1). What's wrong Mojang? Please help. 

I thank you in advance.
