Minecraft Realms auto-renewable subscription info:

Minecraft now comes with the option to buy Minecraft Realms. Realms is a monthly subscription service that lets you create your own always-online Minecraft world.
There are currently two subscription options to choose from depending on how many people you want to invite to play in your realm simultaneously. A realm for you and 2 friends costs 3.99 USD/month (or local equivalent) and a realm for you and 10 friends cost 7.99 USD/month (or local equivalent).
A 30-day trial of Minecraft Realms for you and 10 friends is available. Any unused portion of a free trial period will be forfeited when the user purchases a subscription.

The payment will be charged to your iTunes account at confirmation of purchase and the subscription automatically renews unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24-hours before the end of the current period. Your account will be charged for renewal within 24-hours prior to the end of the current period, at the subscription price option you have previously selected.

Your subscription can be managed by the user and auto-renewal may be turned off by going to the user's Account Settings after purchase. There is also a button in-game that take you to these settings. If you cancel after your subscription has activated, you won't be refunded for the remaining active period of the subscription.

If you can imagine it, you can create it—anything from monolithic towers to cavernous rollercoasters. That’s the idea that sparked a world-building phenomenon in Mojang’s amazing Minecraft. Since the game's release on the App Store, a steady stream of meaningful updates has kept this cube-filled universe fun, fresh and jam-packed with exciting features.

Some bugs I’ve noticed!

First off I’d like to say that Mojang has really done an outstanding job keeping up with updates and bug fixes. And I really appreciate them for that. The new Wild update is beautiful and I’m obsessed with the new mobs and terrains that came with it. However, as with most updates, there are always a few bugs and as a user I feel here is the best place to let someone know about the ones I’ve seen so far!
-The first thing was when loading a word (new or already existing) it take quite a bit of time to generate the world, along side that, when you enter the world, your surroundings take a while to load in and throughout gameplay you have to be patient and wait for the terrain ahead of you to load in.
-The only other thing i saw was when trying to type in a command. As soon as you touch the keyboard to type, the game starts lagging a little. Once the command is entered it also causes the world to lag and then takes a bit of time for the command to follow through. (I’m afraid that the game is crashing sometimes lol).
So far that’s all I’ve seen though, so with a little bit of patience there’s really not that much of an issue. I do know that with every update there are also bugs and I know that Mojang really try’s there best to fix them asap so im not worried.
Thank you Mojang and the developers for your hard work and consistency! I love Minecraft and am always looking forward to experiencing the new and exciting features that await us. <3 <3 <3

It is a little hard on iPad i recommend creative

So first time I went into survival it was hard so I went into creative mode and I Spond frogs since you’re allowed to and a few days later I made a house yeah it was fun in a few days later I realize something that I can get commands so then I got a barrier block it was pretty fun this game is very good for probably 4+ or if you’re older than probably better and then I saw the cutest little thing it was a baby bunny in Minecraft guess what I did I hit it and then I got rabbit Leg which is supposedly very rare but I get rabbit leg a lot so it isn’t really rare just like the title says it’s hard on iPad but once you get used to it it gets so much easier so definitely probably go on a PC it’s probably much easier sorry that this is so long this is probably the best game ever so I recommend you playing this🤩🤩☺️ yes it is that good so definitely play this game it is literally the best I’m trying to figure out how to get mods🧐🧐so yeah sometimes it gets laggy in don’t be alarmed if when you like play a different game on your device and it really sets the world on Minecraft it’s probably just making sure that it isn’t laggy or there isn’t like any hackers or something like that so if you don’t want any random people joining then just go to settings I mean you probably can’t go to settings you have to like press the pencil and then you can press multiplayer and there you go dang this is long bye have a good day

Can I play Minecraft on iOS if I bought it on Android?
