What to do

Work through these checks in order. Stop if a menu, command, or world state differs from the conditions described.

  1. Confirm your Minecraft edition and release, then identify the world, device, or server involved.
  2. Check the Microsoft account link and current console online-service requirements.
  3. Invite a Bedrock friend and verify privacy or family settings if the friend is not visible.
  4. Check the result in the game. If it differs, record the exact error or menu label and compare the official source for your version.

Edition and version differences

The same action can appear under a different menu or controller button on another device. Use the current platform settings as the final reference.

If the result differs

Compare the current screen or error text with the conditions above. Menus and controller prompts vary by device. Check the exact game edition on each platform and use the current device documentation when a menu label differs. Change one variable at a time so you can tell which step made a difference.
