How To Get the Minecraft Preview on iOS and Windows!

Hello everybody and welcome back to another omg craft today we are going to be taking a look at how to join the minecraft preview so that you can take a look at what has been known as the minecraft bedrock beta version so what has been going on here with minecraft bedrock

In the past you had to opt in to the xbox insider hub to be able to get the minecraft beta and that had all the cool new features that they were developing for minecraft but there was an issue it took over your minecraft game completely uninstalling

The old minecraft and re and you know now newly installing this beta and so any worlds that you had you couldn’t really play while you were in this beta and then to get out of it you had to to say that you wanted to leave and then it

Was like sometimes it like just wouldn’t let you leave like it would just stick around super hard to install you’d have to uninstall everything which might end up deleting worlds super complicated so what ended up happening is now we have a new app that we can download called the

Minecraft preview and this is completely separate than your normal minecraft bedrock version which is amazing so everything that happens in the preview is kind of stuck over there on the preview and anything that happens in your normal minecraft that is just the normal release of minecraft doesn’t have

To be integrated in with the preview so i absolutely love this now you can currently get the preview on windows and ios and there’s still a way to go through you can get the beta still on xbox by using the xbox insider uh so we’re just gonna cover how to get the

Minecraft preview on ios and on windows so unfortunately if you’re on android or if you’re still on xbox or if you’re on any other console there’s no way for you guys to get the preview as i’m recording this video i’ll hopefully make an updated video in the future uh but just

To let you know if you’re not on windows or on ios sorry you’re not going to be able to get a preview so let’s jump in how do we get it the first step is to head on over to this page the minecraft preview faq

And the way you get here is by going to redsto dot in e which spells out redstone if you remove the dot it’s kind of confusing but redstone slash preview and this will take you here and this is gonna have all of the links that you need to follow in

Order to get uh what you want so uh first off let’s cover ios because that is uh in this little paragraph this is where we’re gonna start so they start with ios so we are going to start as well first you need to download test flight

So head on over to the app store click on search and then type in there test flight and go ahead and find this app it should be made by apple so this is what you want if you don’t have it downloaded go ahead and download it next

Go to safari and just like before we’re going to type out in redstone.ne and then preview and hit enter and that will take us to the same blog post but this time on the phone we’re going to go to that same area and right there we’re going to click that that will open

Up test flight and we want to hit open that will take you to this page where you choose accept and then you download the preview once we’ve done that then we actually have minecraft this is the first time that i’m like opening up the preview on this phone so it’s kind of

Giving me some of this stuff but there you go you can see that it is the preview create a new world at the top of the screen there’s all that tech stuff and we even have the cool new uh world generation thing so there you go that is how you

Get the preview on ios now one thing to mention is that during uh or on their blog post they mentioned that they only have a limited number of slots so there’s a chance that if you don’t hurry and become uh like a member of the of

The test flight then you might not you might be locked out because there’s too many people so do it quickly as of watching this video okay so we’re back here on the computer and it’s weird because it mentions windows twice and these are like the same instructions on

Windows anyone who already owns bedrock uh and then over here on windows anyone who already owns bedrock uh so there you go uh you i guess maybe this is about the xbox game pass or whatever but basically you’re just going to click either of these links

This one i believe will take you to the xbox app at least it did on my computer okay so this took me to the web page of the window of the xbox store um and then if that doesn’t work back over here there’s another link below the first one

And this link will ask your computer if it will open up the microsoft store on your computer so i did this and this was useful for me and that will open up the microsoft store so here is the microsoft store and you may be thinking to

Yourself like okay well if i can just get it in the microsoft store i want to go up here to this search thing and search minecraft preview well no it doesn’t show up for some reason it’s like completely hidden you have to do it from the blog post in order to find it

Uh what is this imposter online that is sus right there so don’t search for it you have to go to the blog post and click on the link on either of these links uh and that is how you get it and once again your account that you’re signed into must already own

The bedrock version for you to be able to download it once you do and it verifies that you do you can just download it like a normal app here is that page one more time microsoft minecraft preview for windows i’m already in it and so now i can just click play

And it opens it really small uh but there you go this is also the minecraft preview i happen to be on windows 11 but i’ve done this on windows 10 just fine so i don’t think that that should be uh a worry but as you can see preview oh we got the music

Playing gotta go in here turn my music off first thing i ever do uh whenever i start a new minecraft so there you go that’s two different ways to get the minecraft preview okay so now that we have the preview don’t stop watching either if you’re on ios or

On windows that’s because there is one more step you have to do in order to get the new features which kind of threw me off uh so let’s go ahead and create a new world and on this new design that feature is hidden currently now remember i’m on

1.18.30.27 up here so maybe in the future they fix it but you have to choose the button and i have to hide my thing you have to choose this button here go back to old design you must choose this button it’ll be like you

Sure you want to go back i’m like yes i do because down here oh you need to enable the wild update right here this thing that i am flashing on and off for you that needs to be turned on in order to get all of the things and then also this

Vanilla experience thing experiments this is the only way that i was able to get the new horns in minecraft so for some reason these two things need to be flipped on and those buttons don’t exist if you’re in the new layout let me go up

Here switch to the new ui if we want to but those don’t exist if you’re in the new layout and they both need to be turned on in order to get every single new feature and here we are inside of the preview we can test this out by looking for

Maybe uh what should we look for oh horn look at this what we got the crazy horns here here we go yeah we also get some frogs we got some uh frog lights so as you can see the preview is working and also right by the by all the text at the top

Of my screen you can tell that we are in the preview so that is how it works my friends so i hope you found this video useful and you were able to join the preview i hope you came here and wanted to do it and now you know you did it
