Realms Stories is a social hub for members of a Realm, where players can comment, share screenshots, and view player activity.

The features from Realms Stories are planned to be merged with the Realm management into Realms Hub in an upcoming update.

Usage

Realms Stories is available for all players that are member of a Realm in Minecraft:Bedrock Edition, for both Realms Plus and Realms Core subscriptions. It can be accessed from the main screen of the Realm in the play screen, and also from the Edit Realm screen for the owner of the Realm. It can also be accessed from the game menu while playing on the Realm.

Unlike a Realms server itself, which is hosted on servers owned by Mojang Studios, Realms Stories is 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 Stories is hosted on the Xbox Network, the data is slightly delayed from the actual server. Furthermore, old Stories (usually past page 9) are automatically deleted.

The main screen of Realms Stories has three tabs, and a button to open the Realms Stories settings in the top-right.

Realms Hub

Currently in Minecraft:Minecraft Preview, Realms Stories is merged with the Realm management into the Realms Hub, except in the game menu. All features from Realms Stories are still available in the Hub, as well as all features from the manage Realm screens. The owner can also grant administrator rights to members which allows them to manage most settings that were previously exclusive to the owner. For the parts of Realms Hub related to the main Realm management, see Template:Slink.

Story Feed

File:Ore UI - Realms Stories Add Story Screen Menu (Bedrock).png

Adding a story post

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. A player can add with the purple button on the top-left. 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 a player's own posts. The amount of likes is shown on the left.

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. The Realm's owner can delete any story or comment, while other members can only delete their own. Other members can also notify the Realm's owner about a story. These reports can be accessed from the Realms Stories settings for the owner, where they can delete, dismiss, or report the message. The owner can also see which members reported a message.

In the upcoming Realms Hub, the story feed is located in "Story feed" section of the "Community" tab, the first screen after opening the Hub. This functions exactly the same as Realms Stories, but members with administrator role can also delete stories. The Feed moderation from the Realms Stories settings is moved here and available for all administrators. There is also a new "Admin log" tab with currently no use.

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 Realms Stories settings by the owner.

The "Timeline" tab

Realm Stories also contain 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 older data 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. The Realm's owner can view all members that are opted out.
