Should I use MCPE or get a Switch?

Hi all, I’ve recently gotten back into Minecraft and I’m playing a ton. I find myself on the go a lot, so I can’t lug my Xbox everywhere I go. I downloaded Minecraft pocket addition and it has everything I need. I do not however love the controls. They are amazing for a phone, but I’m used to using a controller so I don’t think it’s something I’ll be able to come accustomed to.

My question is, should I simply connect my Xbox controller and play that way and it will be exactly like playing on my console? Or is there lag and weird things I’ll run into with that?

If so, I would just get a Nintendo switch and avoid the app.

Thank you.

How to fix this issue?

For the past week, no matter what, my worlds won't degenerate or load past this point. After waiting, it says there was an error. I've deleted Minecraft, reinstalled it, deleted the data, and reinstalled it. I'm not sure what else to do.

Collect Everything! add-on now available!

Collect Everything! turns Minecraft Bedrock into a completionist's dream - a built-in compendium that automatically tracks every item, mob, biome, enchantment, effect, and unobtainable block you've ever touched. Browse your progress through a sleek tabbed UI with search, per-category completion stats, and session tracking. With support for entity variants (colors, professions, baby forms), all 60 biomes, and even cooperative Ender Dragon credit, it gives veteran players a brand-new reason to explore every corner of the world.

How It Works

Collect Everything! tracks six categories of discoveries:

Items - Pick up anything in survival, from diamond swords to suspicious stew, and watch everything get logged automatically.

Entities - Kill, tame, or name, or leash a mob to add it to your collection. Each variant counts separately - try tracking down all 35 horse color-and-marking combos, every villager profession, and all five axolotl colors.

Biomes - Just explore! Every new biome you set foot in is recorded. With over 60 biomes to discover, adventuring has never been more rewarding.

Effects - Drink a potion, catch a lingering arrow, or eat suspicious stew to log each status effect. On harder difficulty settings, even each amplifier level counts.

Enchantments - Enchant a tool, find an enchanted book, or trade with a villager to record the enchantment. Higher difficulties track each level separately.

Unobtainables - Break a spawner, mine reinforced deepslate, or crack open a vault - blocks you can't normally get in survival are tracked here as a badge of honor.

The Collection Browser

The collection browser is the star of the show - a sleek, tabbed interface that displays everything you've found with per-category progress bars, search, and a session view showing what you've collected in your current play session.

Accidentally deleted a world

I had a project I was working on on bedrock, a pyramid going from the bottom of the world to the build limit. I devoted almost a year to it, but when my tablet started to go I deleted minecraft on it and downloaded on my phone. The problem is, my worlds were saved locally, and when i deleted minecraft they got deleted too. Is there anything I can do to recover them?

Minecraft PE/BE: Overlaying Phantom Chunks

My journey from MCPE v1.0.2 to MCBE v1.2.10 has brought me a project outside of my plans, why did this happen?

During those aforementioned versions, I created a Survival world, which is currently like my home, and at some point, I lost the only dragon egg that can be obtained in vanilla mode.

The obsession with recovering what I lost led me to do different tests, trying to update to recent versions (the goal is to stay on v1.2.10 for a long time), bugging the game or the dragon battle, I tried everything and in the end I gave up.

During a completely different test, where I wanted to find a way to have a bow with both Repair and Infinity enchantments simultaneously on a single bow (something I haven't yet managed to do), I decided to downgrade a creative world (where I do my testing) to the famous MCPE Alpha v0.15.10. Chunks glitched in a very strange way; they duplicated themselves on top of each other. Honestly, at the time, since it was a flat world, it wasn't a big deal, so I completely ignored it. It wasn't until more than three months later that I started wondering again what potential these duplicated chunks might have.

First, I analyzed why it happened and how I could fix it. I reviewed my Creative world, analyzed the specific area where the chunks were bugged, and placed a glass ceiling at a height of 256 in that area. Even so, I still didn't understand why placing blocks at the height limit and downgrading to alpha v0.15.10 caused the bug. Well, I found the answer days later:

MCPE Alpha v0.15.10 has a height limit of 128 blocks, while in MCBE v1.2.10, the height limit is already 256 blocks.

But how was it possible to downgrade from BE v1.2.10 to alpha v0.15.10? Naturally, if you try this, you'll get a screen saying "This world was opened in higher versions," but I managed to break that limit. Alpha v0.15.10 has a curious feature. What did I do? Simple: I pressed the "Edit World" button, and automatically, for no apparent reason, the world opened without any problem.

There are things to consider when downgrading. Obviously, your inventory can't contain anything from versions higher than alpha v0.15.10. In my case, my Survival world was generated in MCPE v1.0.2 and downgraded to MCBE v1.2.10. You have to choose a specific area far from your main zone because all the chunks you load while in alpha v0.15.10 will be reset. This leads to my POSSIBLE theory about why the chunks are bugged:

The lower version has to reset the Chunks of its higher versions, but when leaving blocks above the height of 128 (alpha v0.15.10 limit), the version detects the information of the blocks that are above the limit, but cannot manipulate that information, so it saves it as a "cache", and when we return to higher versions where the height limit is already 256 (in my case, BE v1.2.10) that information from the Chunks reset that Alpha v0.15.10 could not manipulate is executed, if the game resets a Chunk, it is forced to regenerate it.

My theory (because I have no programming experience) is that resetting the Chunks, by forcing them to regenerate at such massive heights, causes an information overload. This is because these upper Chunks aren't normal (they're a copy of the ones below, but with some very strange variables). They generate strange columns of bug blocks, or as I like to call them, "debug blocks," including blocks without textures, invisible blocks, command blocks, structure blocks, and portal blocks (Nether, End, and Endgateway). If the original Chunk contained a spawner or chest, the chest will be invisible, and the spawner will have no entity. You'll have layers of Bedrock over 128 blocks high. Honestly, if anyone has a more solid theory, I'd appreciate it. What I'm describing is based on my limited knowledge and simple logic.

Finally, what privileges do you have to do this in your Survival world? I risked doing it in my Survival world (because clearly, all this can be done in Vanilla Survival, hence the purpose of this long post) and obtained these blocks: Nether Reactor Core, Glowing Obsidian, Stonecutter (available only in creative) and some Tile Blocks (blocks without textures or names) and fortunately, my main objective, to recover my dragon egg.

Thanks to this project, which I named "Overlaying Phantom Chunks," I'm motivated to continue working on these versions. I feel this could be the start of something big. I've already managed to generate command blocks, structures, and portals with this project. But what about obtaining them as items? That would be the ultimate goal. Although I already have the End Portal and Endgateway, I haven't found a way to get the others. But for now, I'm leaving this record here, not to take credit, but to share information. It's another step in my learning process.
