People can't connect to my minecraft bedrock world.

Hi! My name is Ben an Independent Advisor and hope you are doing well.

With regards to your issue, you may need to manage the settings of your Xbox account. I understand you are playing it on a Windows 11 device but all of your gamertag or account's settings can be managed via https://account.xbox.com/en-gb/Settings/Home

On the page, just go to "Privacy & online safety" settings. Then select the Xbox series/ Windows online safety. You will see many categories there, just make sure it is allowed on the settings then make sure to save it.

After doing this, have your friends try to join your world to see if they will be allowed this time to enter.

Looking forward to hearing back from you so we can try to assist if there are still issues.

Kind regards,

Ben

good evening

There could be several reasons why you can't connect to your friend's world in Minecraft Bedrock:

Firewall or router configuration: Your firewall or router may be blocking incoming connections, which would prevent your friend from connecting to your world.

Internet connection: A slow or unstable internet connection can prevent you from connecting to your friend's world.

Game version mismatch: You and your friend may be playing on different versions of the game. Ensure you are both on the same version of Minecraft Bedrock.

Xbox Live account: Make sure both you and your friend are logged in to Xbox Live, as it is required for multiplayer on Minecraft Bedrock.

NAT type: You may need to change your NAT type from strict to moderate, or open, in order to connect to your friend's world.

Are you talking about a Minecraft world? Also, what version [Xbox one(the old one) or bedrock (the latest one with cross platform)]?. Usually if you're connected to Xbox live, all worlds sync up to the cloud, if you're playing on Minecraft Bedrock edition,
when you click play, there should be an option at the bottom to sync old worlds.

Hello xbox support,

My friend and i have had this ongoing problem where he is unable to connect to my worlds but i can connect to his (connecting to my worlds works just fine for others) and we have no idea why. and advise or support will be helpful. Thanks.

Hi there.

Just to make sure is this the Xbox one edition or is it the bedrock edition of Minecraft?

never mind, turns out my internet connection was just being weird or something but I managed to get it to work, so it is possible to make a completely different account and join the same Minecraft world on bedrock edition for Xbox.
