Add guest adds a temporary account for the current play session, and is useful if you have a friend round who just wants to join you for, say, local co-op and aren't fussed about saving progress or Achievements.

This has the same level of security as logging into any other device - so if it requires second factor authentication to log in, be sure to have that at hand. Upon logging in, you're also allowed to set the level of access available to that account on this console, such as requiring a password every time someone attempts to use it.
This is useful if you want the account accessible on this console for a later date, but don't want anyone using it by accident and playing your save games. First, you need to open the Settings app. Chances are this is one of your most recent apps, meaning it'll be already on the home screen, but if not, you can find it by:.

This will then bring up a list of all the accounts on the system, from Gamertags to guest accounts. Select the one you want, then remove.
