Frequently asked questions
What is Minecraft 26.51?
A one-fix hotfix for 26.50 Wilderness Bound, released by Mojang on 15 September 2026 as build 1.26.51.1. It stops a crash when loading worlds with big connected builds of fences, glass panes, iron bars or walls.
Should I install 26.51 or 26.52?
26.52 is newer and includes this fix plus several more, so most people should take 26.52. Keep 26.51 if you play on a server that has not updated yet.
Which file should I download?
Almost everyone wants the first one, All phones: it works on every phone, so there is no processor type to pick. Choose the Clone only if you want to keep the Minecraft you already have installed and run this one next to it.
How do I install it?
Back up your worlds first. The regular build replaces Minecraft, and Android will not install over a copy signed by someone else, so uninstall the old one — which deletes worlds kept in the app storage — then open the downloaded APK and allow installs from your browser when asked. The Clone skips the uninstall.
