Convert Java Worlds to Bedrock (Playable on iPhone)

← All guides

Java Edition and Bedrock are two different world formats. A conversion rebuilds your Java world as a Bedrock .mcworld as faithfully as possible, but some Java-only content has no one-to-one equivalent. Being honest about that is at the heart of this feature.
We never promise "100% lossless." We give you a compatibility score up front, then tell you item by item exactly what was replaced or changed once it's done—no surprises.

Step-by-step

  1. Open the Java world and diagnose it.Import your Java world ZIP. The diagnostic recognizes it as Java Edition and flags it as "needs conversion."
  2. Review the compatibility score.Before you pay, you see a compatibility score and which content carries over intact (terrain, blocks, containers, structures) versus what may need to be replaced.
  3. Confirm and convert.Once you confirm, the conversion runs (pay-per-use) and outputs an importable .mcworld. Failed jobs are refunded automatically; pricing is whatever the app shows.
  4. Read the item-by-item change report.When it's done you get a readable report that lists, item by item, every entity, block, behavior/resource pack, or piece of player data that was replaced or changed.
  5. Import into Bedrock.Import the generated .mcworld into Minecraft Bedrock (including iPhone / iPad) and start playing.

Usually carries over

  • Terrain and elevation
  • The vast majority of common blocks (including stairs, leaves, walls, fences, torches, liquids, waterlogged states, and more)
  • Chests and other containers, along with their structural layout

May be replaced or moved to the report

  • Java-only entities and blocks
  • Behavior packs / resource packs, and some redstone behavior
  • Player data and certain container contents

When a block has no equivalent, we place a visible placeholder and note it in the report instead of swapping it silently—so you always know what happened.
