How to join your Minecraft Bedrock server
- 1
Update Minecraft to the newest version. Bedrock only joins servers on the same version.
- 2
On Windows, iPhone, iPad or Android, click Play, open the Servers tab and choose Add Server.
- 3
Type any name, then enter
203.0.113.24as the server address and19132as the port. - 4
Click Save, then pick the server in the list to join. Xbox, PlayStation and Switch cannot add servers this way, see the tips below.
Common problems
IP and port go in separate boxes
Bedrock asks for the Server Address and the Port separately. Put only the numbers before the colon in Server Address, and the number after the colon in Port. Leaving the port at 19132 is the most common reason a server will not connect.
"Outdated server" or "Outdated client"
Bedrock only connects when your game and the server run the same version. Update Minecraft from your app store, or ask the owner to click Update game in the dashboard after a new Minecraft release.
Playing on Xbox, PlayStation or Switch?
Consoles only show the featured servers and have no Add Server button. The usual workaround is the free BedrockConnect DNS method, which adds a screen where you type the address. Apps like BedrockTogether (phone) or Phantom (PC on the same Wi-Fi) can also make the server show up under Friends or LAN games.
"You are not invited to this server"
The allowlist is on and your Gamertag is not on it. Ask the owner to add you with Allowlist player, typing your Gamertag exactly.
On Java Edition?
Java Edition players cannot join a Bedrock server. For Java and Bedrock players together, run a Java server with Geyser instead.
Server not responding
Make sure the server is online. Servers sleep after 4 days with nobody playing, and anyone with access can start them again from the dashboard in one click.
Use the server address
Do not use localhost, 127.0.0.1 or your own IP from a home hosting guide. Copy the exact address of the server.
No port forwarding or firewall changes
Opening ports on your router is only for hosting a server at home, so there is nothing to change to join this one. If Windows asks whether to let the game through the firewall, choose Allow.
Modding your Minecraft Bedrock server
Bedrock uses add-ons: behavior packs change how the game works and resource packs change how it looks. Upload them in the Files tab or bring a world that already has them applied. Players download the resource packs automatically when they join. Java mods, plugins, Paper and Fabric do not work on Bedrock.
Minecraft: Bedrock Edition server hosting, explained
Minecraft: Bedrock Edition is the version of Minecraft on Windows, iPhone, iPad, Android, Xbox, PlayStation and Nintendo Switch. A Bedrock server keeps one world running for all of them, so friends on a phone, a console and a PC can build together without anyone hosting from their own device. Realms can do something similar, but a dedicated server gives you the files, the console, add-ons, more players and a world you can download whenever you like.
We run Mojang's own Bedrock Dedicated Server, the same software Mojang publishes for server owners. It is written in native code, so it needs far less memory than a Java server: 2 GB comfortably holds a group of friends, and RAM only becomes the limit with big explored worlds, heavy add-ons or crowds of 25 players or more.
The catch with Bedrock is versions. Phones and consoles update Minecraft automatically, and a player on a newer version cannot join an older server. When a new Minecraft update lands, click Update game in the dashboard: it backs up your world, installs the newest server and keeps your world, allowlist and settings.

Common questions
Can PlayStation, Xbox and Switch players join?
Yes, they play on the server like anyone else. Consoles just have no Add Server button, so console players use the free BedrockConnect DNS method to type in the address, or an app like BedrockTogether or Phantom that lists the server under Friends or LAN games.
Can Java Edition players join?
No. Bedrock Dedicated Server only accepts Bedrock players. If your group mixes Java and Bedrock, pick our Minecraft: Java Edition server and add Geyser, which lets Bedrock players join a Java world.
Why does it say "Outdated server"?
Minecraft updated on your device and the server is still on the older version. Click Update game in the dashboard. Your world is backed up first and kept.
Can I use add-ons and behavior packs?
Yes. Upload behavior and resource packs in the Files tab and list them in your world's pack files, or upload a world that already has them applied. Add-ons that need experimental features must have them turned on in the world before you upload it.
Can I upload my own world?
Yes. Export the world from Minecraft as a .mcworld file, unzip it, upload the folder into worlds and set the world name to that folder's name.
Is this better than a Realm?
A Realm is simpler, but only you and 10 friends can be online at once and there is no file access. A dedicated server lets you manage the files, run console commands, choose the player limit and download backups.
Do my friends need Xbox accounts?
Yes. Every Bedrock player signs in with a free Microsoft account, and the allowlist uses those Gamertags.
Can my friends and I split the cost?
Yes. At checkout choose "Me and my friends" and up to 10 people each pay their own share with their own card, on any plan length, from 3 days to a year. It is not a payment plan: nobody pays in parts over time, each friend simply pays their own share. You pay yours, send each friend their link, and the server starts straight away. Each share includes a $1 payment fee.
Can I build a custom plan?
Yes. Every game has a Build your own page: pick any amount of RAM up to 32 GB, any length from 3 days to 1 year, prepaid or a subscription, plus your server type and settings. A custom size costs 15% more per GB than the standard plans next to it.
Can I pay once instead of a subscription?
Yes. Pick Prepaid and pay once for 3 days, 30 days, 6 months or a year. Nothing renews: when the time is up the server pauses and keeps its world for 14 days. Add time or switch to a subscription from your panel any time. Short rentals cost more per day, since every server is set up from scratch.
How fast is setup, really?
Your server starts building the moment Stripe confirms payment. Most are online in under a minute, and the address and login appear on your dashboard automatically.
