Possible to watch movies I purchased on XBOX One on my Apple iPhone?

I have a media purchasing dilemma. I am trying to decide how I will purchase movies going forward.  I have an iPhone 6 Plus, but I love the idea of using my XBOX as a media center.  Is it possible to watch movies that I purchase from the Microsoft Store on my XBOX One on my iPhone? Is there a Microsoft player or app that will enable me to access my Microsoft purchased movies on my iPhone? Or will I be limited to watching it ONLY on my XBOX One?

If I'm limited to watching only on my XBOX One, then I won't use my XBOX as media center. I'll just get an Apple TV because I'd like to be able to take my purchased content with me everywhere.  Any help and insight will be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Unfortunately, it's not yet possible as there is no Microsoft Movies & TV / Xbox Video app available for iOS or Android devices.

    OR, microsoft could be up to date with their video programs with other companies such as Amazon, Roku, VUDU ,Netflix,  Google  where they can play videos through a simple app and then can be played through Chromecast and other devices... pretty sad that such a large software company is so far behind the curve. 

    If Amazon and Disney does it.. Really forces me to  buy my movies from Google and not spend money with Microsoft ..I don't want to be stuck with plugging in a cable to watch a movie .. FIGURE IT OUT... It won't crash and Die like Zune

    Microsoft needs to get an app out pronto or I'll just buy my movies from other vendors.
