You can see a tutorial here it is pretty easy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yIuwIyt_J6U.
No unfortunately you cannot. Because of Android-API restrictions, it is not possible for us to implement a feature to import custom PHP binaries into the app.
We however always try our best to update the app as fast as possible if there are new PHP requirements.
If you need a custom PocketServer app version with custom PHP extensions, dm us at Discord and we will create a custom version of the app with different PHP binaries free for you.
Your device is 32 bit and cannot be supported. We cannot fix this.
Since this server runs on your device, performance is strongly limited. Smartphones and tablets are not good at hosting servers.
In general, plugins, worlds, device hardware, player count, server configuration will affect the server performance. Do not expect Intel I11 like CPU performance. The server is not running on a computer.
No. This app will only run server for Bedrock and Windows Edition.
This app is not a gaming server. The server runs on your device. Therefore do not expect performance like from gaming PC's or high end servers.
This app is NOT a gaming server. There is no reason or benefit for changing IP addresses for a local server. If you have a cloud server, you can use a provider like No-IP
Go to the files -> open the server.properties file and edit motd value.
We will be more than happy to add your serversoftware inside our app. Contact us via mail or join us on Discord.
To be an Admin on your server, open the app -> Console and run the command: op YourInGameName
Replace YourInGameName with your actual username.
If your username contains spaces like "Gamer Pro", then wrap your name inside " ". like: op "Gamer Pro"
The server software inside the app is not ment to be used as a vanilla server. Mobs and some items are not supported. We cannot "fix" this.
If you experience any issues with a plugin, please contact the plugin developer.
The plugins available on this app are made by third-party developers wich are not connected with us.
Please disable battery optimization for this app if you want the server to run while in background. The app will ask you to disable it when opening and starting the server.
Please use the default skin and try joining again.
If you publish your plugin on poggit, it will be automatically available on the app. We however give you the oppurtunity to publish your own plugin in our app. Simply contact us via mail or on Discord.
1.1.5 was removed from the application long time ago. It was removed because it required additional PHP binaries wich just increase the app size by 50% and not everyone is using 1.1.5.
There were a lot of complaints of this and that not working leaving us with the decision to remove this version.
If the app is crashing, please send us a screenshot or video of producing the crash. Also include some details about your device and contact us on Discord or via mail.
We cannot add support for 32 Bit devices. Please consider buying a newer device.
We cannot remove ads for now. We put a lot of work for this application and offer it for free to everyone. We are continuing to find a way to provide optimal user experience by lowering down the ads.
No we cannot fix any issues related to plugins since they are not made by us. Contact the plugin developer please for any questions or issues.
You can use this app for developing and debugging plugins on your device, test different components of a server, or you can develop worlds for your production server.
We do not recommend to use this application as a means to host the server for gaming. Use cloud services instead. If you still want other people to join your server wich are on a different network, you must setup portforwarding. This step cannot be explained here since for every network, the way of setting this up will be different.
You can find a well explained guide on the following link: https://portforward.com
On a IPv4 network, there are is a local and public IP.
The local IP is ment to identify you device in a local network, it cannot accesed on the internet. Use the local IP to join your server.
The public IP can be accessed over the internet. Use it to invite other people outside your network. (Portforwarding required first)
You do not need to use these IP's to join your server. The server will be automatically shown on the friends tab in the game.
These IP's are ment to be used for development or testing.
No.
This app is not a copy of the PocketMine-MP app. All apps including our app wich start a PocketMine-MP server are inofficial apps. They are not maintained by the developer of PocketMine-MP.
PocketMine-MP is also not an app, it is a server software wich allows you to run a server for the game. If you do not understand, do not use this app.
Also most of the features inside PocketServer were added before the other app implemented these.

Starting from Android 11, apps can no longer access /sdcard location and only can modify files in their own directories. You can however import and export your files within the app easily.
