Does anybody know how to sync worlds from Nintendo to iPad?

Hi, my name is , I'm a member of the Xbox community like you. I understand your problem, don't worry I'm here to help you.

To transfer your world between platforms, you need to have a Realms subscription.

I appreciate your patience, if you have more questions feel free to ask.

Hi,

I don't think you can sync worlds across nintendo switch only windows devices

Minecraft doesn't store the worlds "in the cloud" so that multiple devices can access one world.

If you have a world stored on your iPad, the Switch will NOT automatically have the world, even if you use the same Microsoft Account.

Your son can either "visit" the world on the iPad with the Switch, while the iPad is running Minecraft at that time through Multiplayer.

If you really want to have the world shared across both devices, your only option is to "rent" a realm that you have to pay for in monthly subscription fees.

Or if your son is okay with transferring the world from one device (e.g. iPad to the Switch and only play on the Switch from then on), you could use a free trial for Realms to transfer the world over.

To do that, your son activates a Realm subscription with a free trial on iOS, and uploads the desired world to the Realm service.

Then he connects the Switch to the same Realm, and downloads the world to his Switch.

Then you cancel the Realm subscription via

Wanted to share how I got iPads and Nintendo switch to play together. Key was to install xbox app onto the ipads. This then broadcasts their online presence to xbox.. which apparently the switch version for online connects through. games will show up as
LAN on ipad if running from switch (in online mode). And if came is on ipad, it will show up as online game on switch, even though its LAN...
