Can not download minecraft on mobile

iSaneLunatic · May 17, 2023

My daughter bought Minecraft bedrock and java. We did it at the same time. The difference is my Microsoft login is a Gmail account, hers is a yahoo account. She has since got a different phone and today realized that google play wants her to pay for bedrock to install it on her phone. They will not let her login with a yahoo.com account. We tried putting the yahoo.com account as an alternate email address but google play will still not allow the download without paying for bedrock again.

I was able to install it just fine, as my Microsoft account is a Gmail account, and of course google play is happy to let me log in with it.

How do I get bedrock on my daughter's phone without her paying for it again.

Holy ****. Thank you so much. All this time I thought I didn't pay for Minecraft on my phone because I figured it carried over as the email address are the same. I should have known better, but we all have brain farts I guess. I just went waaaaay back in my purchase history of the play store and sure enough.. there it is... btw, they haven't raised the price since at least 2016, lol.

Well no as Google play is different from your ms account

When you buy a xbox or pc copy it stays on the xbox ecosystem

You have to buy it on Google play

If you bought it on.phone you need.to login with the same google account as what she purchase it on as it's not to your ms account

Google accounts can.be different emails however your purchases are linked. To your Google account that you reigstered to make the purchase

If you bought it from.the ms store or .xbox marketplace it doesnt apply to phone

There is no cross. Buy on phones or any platform

In March 2021 i brought minecraft on my mobile for 650 rupees. Minecraft is my favourite game.

But now I am willing to play it on my laptop but I don't have that much money to download it.

So, I want to ask that whether I can download it on my laptop for free by linking my mobile's account.

As far as i am aware buying the mobile version only gets you the mobile version. If you want the PC version then youd have to buy the PC version.

For Xbox you have to buy directly from the Xbox store or the in game Minecraft store. You can download files like that for the mobile versions but to get them on Xbox it has to come from the store.
