Hi there,

from what I understand (I could be misunderstanding) from the Minecraft Realm FAQ it should be possible to use a Realm across multiple devices.

See this text

CAN I USE MY REALMS PLUS ON ANY DEVICE? 

Yes! If you purchase Realms Plus, you can access all the packs,
your personal server, and storage from any device with Minecraft Marketplace
as long as you’re signed into your Minecraft account. 

This is the link to the FAQ for other information:

I checked the transaction history, there was nothing there. On my PlayStation account I had about 14 dollars and after trying to buy the realm I had 7 dollars left. Minecraft keeps saying that the purchase was complete but that they can’t create the realm at that time and to check later.

I have the same issue as Bruhmoment10283 on mobile so I redownloaded Minecraft and now I don’t have any of my worlds and can’t play realms

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 https://news.microsoft.com/en-gb/2017/09/22/minecraft-better-together-update-lets-start-console-keep-playing-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.
