I am not allowed to create a realms in Minecraft!

Xbox help me!

Every time I'm going to create a realms in Minecraft, I can not create because it says that I have to have the permission to create. So I get there on the Xbox Live permissions to change my two permissions and I can not change them from locked to allowed,
you could inform me how I can access to allow both permissions:

You can create and join clubs

Decide whether to allow or block the creation and membership of clubs

Broadcast gameplay

Decide whether to allow or block if you can start the live broadcast of your game

If you have a way, please let me know!

:)

Unable to access worlds across XBox and Android devices

Greetings!

What you are seeing is intended as worlds created on individual devices are created locally and accessible when the creator is logged in on that device, but they are not sustained online and therefore not accessible if the creator is offline on the device
that created the world.

What you are referring to for the persistent world is a Realm.

Realms allow a world to be maintained online even without the host and owner being signed in or on the device that locally created it.

Realms are not stored locally like standard worlds and thus would be accessible from any invited account or the owner from any device.

For more info on Realms be sure to check out the
Minecraft Realms page!

Hope that helps clarify and post back if you have any follow up questions!

I am not happy at all about that answer. That is not what was stated on the site Minecraft Better Together Update lets you start on console and keep playing on mobile

Specifically "Minecraft Better Together Update lets you start on console and keep playing on mobile"

There is no mention at all about needing a Realms subscription. Even if the Realms subscription wasn't mentioned, wasn't this feature already available through Realms?

The majority of my time spent playing Minecraft is at home with my kids where we are all on LAN. No Realms or Gold subscription needed for that. I would just like the ability to play that same world from my Android device when I am away from the Xbox console
without unnecessary subscriptions.

Apologies for the confusion with that article.

Better together allows everyone on the listed platforms to play together regardless of the platform they are on. But, this does not create persistent worlds that is what Realms are for!

With Better together you can play on your mobile device while a friend on their Nintendo Switch, Windows 10 PC, or Xbox Console plays with you!

This would not create a persistent online world without a Realm though.

If you would like to play on a specific locally created world with your friends and family you still can, but you will need to be on the device that created it.

We hope that helps clarify further!

Hi there,

Be sure to check
http://account.xbox.com/settings and see if you can change the settings from there.

in case you are using a child account then privacy and online safety settings can only be changed by a parental account.

Keep in mind that after changing the settings you will have to sign out and sign back in again on the console.

Let us know the results
