1. Verify the add-on
- Confirm .mcaddon or .mcpack format.
- Check the supported Bedrock version.
- Review source, hash, size and scan information.
- Avoid APK or executable installers presented as simple packs.
2. Import into Minecraft
Open the downloaded pack and select Minecraft when Android asks which app should handle it. Wait for the in-game import-success or import-failure message before continuing.
3. Activate the packs
Create a new test world, open Behavior Packs and Resource Packs, and activate every component required by the add-on. Some files also require documented experimental gameplay options.
4. Troubleshoot import problems
- Recheck the file extension and download completion.
- Remove an older duplicate pack.
- Confirm enough device storage.
- Check manifest compatibility with your game version.
- Do not use Java Forge instructions on Android Bedrock.
