Privacy settings with realms

Hey

thanks for your reply but, i do not have an xbox and only play on my ipad

Hello Chris,

You will need to go onto your Xbox Microsoft account and access the privacy settings via a desktop in order to change your settings.

Please note that if you are trying to play with anyone on different platforms the following must be on allow.

You can play with players outside of Xbox Live
Decide to allow or block multiplayer gaming with players on other gaming services outside of Xbox Live.

Allow

Block

Please let me know if this has helped you.

Kind Regards,

Hello, My name is David. I am an independent advisor, happy to help you today.

If it asks you for a game pass to join your friends in Minecraft, it may be because the kingdom owner has changed the kingdom's privacy settings. If the realm owner has set the privacy settings to “Friends Only,” only players who have an Xbox Game Pass membership will be able to join the realm.

If you're not sure if the kingdom owner has changed their privacy settings, you can ask them directly. If you don't have an Xbox Game Pass membership and want to join the realm, you'll need to purchase a membership or ask the realm owner to change your privacy settings.

I hope this helps.

Best regards.

To change the Minecraft Realm privacy for everyone, follow these steps:

Sign in to your Xbox account.
Open the Xbox app and select “Minecraft.”
Select “Settings” and then “Privacy and security.”
Select “Change online privacy and security settings.”
Select “Everyone” to allow anyone to join your Realm, or select “Friends” to allow only your friends to join.
Save the changes.

Have you tried doing a hard reset/power cycle on your console.

Press and hold the Xbox logo on the front of the console until it switches off, waiting atleast 30 seconds before switching it on again.
