In addition to the three Realm slots, multiple world saves can be stored on Realms. Automatic saves are taken at the end of every Realms play session when the server shuts down, or every 30 minutes during a play session, and are only retained for a limited time.

Administrators can also manually save backups on the Realm. These saves are retained as long as the Realm exists. Automatic saves can be turned into manual saves to retain them for longer. However, the maximum storage for each Realm is limited for manual saves; Realms Plus subscriptions have 10GB of manual save storage, and Realms Core subscriptions have 5GB.

The Realms Hub is a social hub for members of a Realm, where players can comment, share Minecraft:screenshots, and view player activity. It connects with the Xbox Minecraft:social features and also allows administrators to manage the Realm.
Usage
The Realms Hub is available for all players that are member of a Minecraft:Realm in Minecraft:Bedrock Edition, for both Realms Plus and Realms Core subscriptions. It can be accessed from the Realm's page in the Minecraft:Play screen as well as the game menu while playing on the Realm.
Unlike a Realms server itself, which is hosted on servers owned by Minecraft:Mojang Studios, the Realm's social features are hosted on Xbox's Minecraft:social network. Each Realm has a private "Club" in the Xbox Network, making all posted screenshots available from the Xbox profile page for any member, where they can also be downloaded. Because it is hosted on the Xbox Network, the data is slightly delayed from the actual server. Furthermore, old story posts (usually past page 9) are automatically deleted.
The main screen of the Realms Hub has four tabs.
Community – includes most social features, found in the "Story feed", "Members", and "Admin log" tabs.
Timeline – an overview table of player activity on the server.
World – world management on the server.
Settings – organized in tabs, contains any type of settings related to social features from the Realms Hub, the server, and subscription.
In the Story feed, all story posts from Realm members are shown on the right side of the screen, and a list of recently played members on the left side. Any player can add one with the purple button on the top. A story post can contain text, and/or a Minecraft:screenshot that is stored in-game.
Every story post in the Story Feed shows the player that added the story, and the time or date when the story was added. If the story contains a screenshot, the player can open it in full screen by clicking on it. Every post can also be liked with the button below, including the player's own posts. The amount of likes is shown on the left.
Batch notifications show for unread stories; on the corner of each post, and with a counter on the "Community" and "Realm Hub" buttons in the Play screen and game menu.
Players can also comment on every story post. These comments can only include text, but they can be liked by any player in the comments screen.
With the options button on the bottom-right of a post or comment, player's can remove their own posts, or report them to Xbox Enforcement. Administrators can delete any story or comment, while other members can only delete their own. Other members can also notify the administrators about a story. These reports can be accessed from the "Feed moderation" screen, where they can delete, dismiss, or report the message. Administrators can also see which members reported a message.
Realm Events
These new stories are automatically posted to the feed when interesting events happen on a Realm. They can be toggled off in the Hub settings by the owner. When multiple players achieve the same event in short succession, they are merged into one ("Player and Player discovered a Badlands").
The ender dragon and wither defeat events are "major events".
Shows a list of all Realm members, organized on their Realm role (owner, administrator, player) and sorted on online status. Each player button also shows their Minecraft:player permission and a tag if they are invited but have not joined, pressing it opens their Minecraft:profile.
A search bar allows to filter on player names, and the list can be filtered for Realm roles, permissions, invited players, and activity (online, offline, playing on Realm). The list can be sorted on name A–Z/Z–A or on recently played.
Every player can open an information screen for each member, showing their Realm role, player permissions, and what permissions this includes. The Realm owner can change Realm roles and grant or revoke administrator permissions. Unlike players, administrators can:
Manage worlds
Manage Realm settings
Manage Hub settings
Add, remove, and block Realm members, manage invite links
Set member gameplay permissions
Moderate stories and comments
View Admin log
The Realm owner is the player that has the subscription on their account. They cannot be kicked or have their gameplay permissions changed, and have more permissions that administrators do not have:
Set member roles
Manage subscription
The owner and administrators can manage members from here, including removing or blocking them. Removing a player simply revokes access from the Realm and the Realms Hub, blocking a player also prohibits them from re-joining the Realm with an invite link.
In the "Manage Realm members" screen (old UI), administrators can also invite players from their Minecraft:friends list, unblock blocked players, and change gameplay permissions for each member. An option at the top allows to select which player permissions members get when they join the Realm. There is also an option to remove all members from the Realm.
Invite links can be managed from this screen. They automatically expire in 7 days, but this can be disabled or set to a different time between 30 minutes and 7 days, with limited options. Administrators can also enable or disable invite links directly, or delete them.
The Admin log in the Realms Hub is accessible for administrators from the "Community" tab. Here, recent changes related to administration are logged. Each entry shows the date and time and affected players, as well as the specific action. The Admin log displays the following changes:
The Realms Hub also contains a Timeline table that shows numerous activity of players in the Realm. The playing times are colored for each player. One week of playing times is shown on the screen, but data up to 4 weeks ago can be viewed with the arrow buttons above. To gain access to the Timeline and store activity data, a player needs to opt in for the Timeline. Players can opt out at any time, and they can also opt in anytime later again. Administrators can view all members that are opted out.
World
For players, the "World" tab shows the name of the currently activated Minecraft:world as well as the Minecraft:game mode (including Minecraft:Hardcore) and the thumbnail of the slot. For administrator, this screen has two tabs:
This screen shows all three world slots, each showing the name, size, and game mode (including Hardcore), and the activated slot is tagged. On disabled worlds, administrators can activate the slot, which restarts the server and kicks all online players. This is not available for administrators currently playing on the Realm.
On the activated world, adminsitrators can open the world's Minecraft:Edit world screen (while in the main menu) or the Game Settings tab of the settings (while in the game menu). In the Edit world screen, they can change most game settings including Minecraft:add-ons, but some options from the regular Edit world screen are disabled. All settings can also be viewed in-game, but only some can be changed.
The small button on the right opens a menu for file management, also available in the Edit world screen. Here, administrators can download the world, replace the world with a local world (not available in-game), and reset the world slot to a new world, created with default settings (not available in-game).
In addition to the three Realm slots, multiple world saves can be stored on Realms. Automatic saves are taken at the end of every Realms play session when the server shuts down, or every 30 minutes during a play session, and are only retained for a limited time.
Administrators can also manually save backups on the Realm. These saves are retained as long as the Realm exists. Automatic saves can be turned into manual saves to retain them for longer, and change their display names. However, the maximum storage for each Realm is limited for manual saves; Realms Plus subscriptions have 10GB of manual save storage, and Realms Core subscriptions have 5GB.
Administrators can find the Realms saves for the currently activated world slot in the "Worlds" tab. They can choose to replace a world slot with a save, to download the save to the device, or to delete them from the cloud. Saves from disabled world slots are not shown but still add up to storage; saves can also include previous worlds stored on the same slot.
Settings
In the settings tab, there are four tabs of Realm settings; the second tab includes Hub settings related to social features. These cannot be changed from the main Minecraft:settings screen. Only administrators can change the Realm-wide settings, other players can only view these.
Text box for the Realm name, displayed in the Play screen, Realms Hub, and various other menus. Can be set to any string of up to 64 characters, inappropriate text results in an error.
Realm description
Text box for the Realm description, displayed in the Play screen. Can be set to any string of up to 200 characters, inappropriate text results in an error.
Shows a notification dot on the Realms Hub button (in the Play screen and game menu) indicating unread story posts.
Leave the Realm?
Opens a confirmation dialog to leave the Realm, not available for the Realm owner and not available in-game. Re-joining requires an invite link or invitation.
Display coordinates for certain Realm Events, if the world's "Show coordinates" setting was enabled when the events were triggered.
Allows certain Realm events to show the Minecraft:coordinates of the location where the event has been triggered, if the "Show coordinates" game setting is enabled. Disabling does not delete data.
Require everyone to opt into the Timeline before they can play on the Realm.
Members that are not opted in to the Timeline cannot join the Realm and need to opt in during the loading screen. The owner always can join, regardless of opting in.
Toggles access to the Timeline. Disabling does not delete data.

Changes the region where the Realms server is hosted, which influences connections depending on the players' locations. "Automatic" selects the best server for the first player to join the session, or the Realm owner. Available servers are shown with a ping indicator:
Enabling this kicks all players that are currently on the Realm and locks the "Play" button, preventing anyone to join. Realms Hub is still available, and the Realm can always be re-opened.
Subscription
This tab is only accessible for the Realm owner.
Shows information about the Realm subscription, including the selected plan, days before next billing date, and player count. An external link allows to manage the subscription in the store where it has been purchased, may not be available if it was purchased externally or if this is a Preview Realm.
Expired links have a button to permanently delete the Realm with all saves, settings, and stories.
Realms Stories were inaccessible the first time launching Preview 1.20.60.23. They were accessible upon relaunch.
Realm Events are hard-coded in Minecraft:Bedrock Dedicated Server and also functional in external servers outside of Realms, however, Realms Hub is not accessible.
The old Realms Stories menu, along with the old UI manage Realm screen, is still accessible through glitches, the most notable being signing in with a Microsoft account from the Realms tab.
