Template:For Template:Exclusive
The friends list is a social menu Template:In. It allows users to add or remove friends and view their friends' statuses.
Usage
The friends list can be accessed via the "Friends" button on the main menu or pause menu, or by using a Minecraft:keyboard shortcut (default Template:Key).
The friends list is presented as an overlay, containing two tabs:
- Friends: Displays currently added friends. Friends can be removed here or friend requests can be sent by entering the player's profile name.
- Requests: Displays received friend requests (acceptable or rejectable) and sent friend requests (cancellable).
The friends list updates every minute while it is open; otherwise it updates every five minutes.
Enabling
When the "Friends" button is interacted with for the first time, a confirmation dialog box appears, asking for agreement to use the friends list.
Some features must be enabled in the separate Online settings to allow friend requests. By default, the "Allow Requests" setting is disabled, which must be enabled to be able to receive friend requests.
The player's Xbox account settings may also hinder the functionality of the friends list. These can also be accessed and changed from the in-game Online settings menu by selecting Xbox Settings. The friends list can be disabled and enabled as a whole using the "Friends List" setting. When disabled, the "Friends" button is hidden and the list cannot be opened. Trying to open the friends list when it is disabled shows a confirmation box, just like when interacting with the feature for the first time.
Friends
The player can send a friend request to another player by entering their Template:JE profile name into the search box in the "Friends" tab, which also sends a friend request on the Xbox network.
A list of sent and received friend requests can be found in the "Requests" tab. A search box appears at the top if the player has 15 or more requests.Template:Upcoming Sent friend requests can be cancelled at any time. Received friend requests can be accepted or rejected, either in the Requests tab or on the Xbox network.
If the other player has "Allow Requests" disabled, the friend request isn't sent and an error message is displayed. The Friends button shows a notification badge with the number of incoming friend requests, up to 5.
Friends added through the Xbox network that own Java Edition is synchronized in-game, and vice versa.
Friends can be seen in the "Friends" tab, displaying their skin's face, their profile name, and their online status. Friends can be sorted by who's online or by alphabetical order.Template:Upcoming Players that have their chat settings set to "Friends Only" on their Xbox profile see only Minecraft:chat messages from players if they are friends.
Friends can be removed from the list in the "Friends" tab with the "Remove friend" button.Template:Until This also removes the friend from the Xbox friends list.
Online status
A friend's online status is displayed under their name, with there being four possible online statuses:
- Offline
- Online (in Java Edition)
- It can further specify into these statuses:
- Online (Realm)
- Online (Server)
- In a world
The way the player's activity appears to their friends can be customized using the "Presence" setting in the Online settings menu or directly in the friends list using the eye iconTemplate:Upcoming, with three states:
- All: Friends see when the user is online and what they are doing (such as if they are actively playing in a world).
- Limited: Friends see when the user is online, but cannot see what they are doing.
- None: The user appears as offline to friends even when online, and no activity is shared.
Player Options
Template:In development Clicking on a player's icon in the friends list or the Other Players screen opens their player options.
You can:
- Send or cancel a friend request
- Accept or decline a friend request
- Mute a player
- Muting a player hides their chat messages until the next time you start the game
- Report a player
Blocking players is managed through Other Players.
Notifications
Changes in the friends list while the game is open result in a Minecraft:toast notification:
- Friend request sent
- Friend request received
- Another player accepted the friend request sent by the player
The toast notification also displays the face of the other player's skin if it is available.
Multiplayer functionality
Players that are in-game friends could join each other's online Minecraft:multiplayer worlds via Minecraft:Peer-to-Peer. Friends that are online could be invited to join to a world through the "Invite to game" button displayed next to their profile in the "Friends" tab and the Friends could accept or deny the invite.
The player could also request to join a friend's online world and the friend could accept or deny the request in the "Friends" tab.
