What is parity? This category is designed just for features that exist but work one way on one platform, and another way on a different platform. Bugs are not parity! Items in snapshots and betas are subject to change so please be sure to only post about things that are currently released in Minecraft. Please read the intro post before you post!

Let's talk about Bedrock Recipe Unlocking!

The latest Bedrock Beta (1.20.10.21) introduces recipe unlocking as an experimental feature! This feature, previously exclusive to Java Edition, allows players to unlock crafting recipes simply by collecting related items, making it much easier to quickly build up your recipe repertoire!

As this is still in development and some of the unlocks have changed from what players may be familiar with in Java Edition, your feedback is important - does the unlocking criteria feel right, does it feel intuitive? Let us know what you think in the comments!

    Also 5 seconds should be the default time for every pop-up sometimes i can't see the achievements i unlock because 3 seconds is not much time and 10 seconds is way too much same with recipe unlocking

    I agree with the person that said this is unnecessary for people that already know all the recipes. but i think it should be a  toggle not shared across worlds this would gate keep this feature from players that have done evrything and would make it not useful at all imagine your a new player you entered a world collected wood sew the toast read it but didnt understand what to do with the recipe and made a new world to figure it out then collected wood but nothing ...

    I'm a little confused as to why this is a necessary addition to bedrock. We have the recipe book, I personally don't see how this is useful to even new players. I feel like it will add unnecessary pop-ups and data to worlds, especially thinking about small screens and lower storage devices.

    If we are going to have something like this added why can't we have per world advancements added instead? Keep the achievement system as per user, but having java style advancements as well, with the advancement screen and everything, I think would be more beneficial and guide new players to actually shoot for the achievements. There aren't enough new players who are going to search online to see what kind of things need to be done to get all the achievements.

    Please do not add this to Bedrock. This is a feature that would seriously turn me off the game...the current crafting/recipe book setup is excellent, and changing it to a recipe unlocking setup would be awful

    I share my opinion with the people who commented. I would love it if it was possible to change the theme color, size, mute sound and disable this notification in Bedrock edition. It's a parity addition that a lot of people love, but others, like Bedrock players, might end up not liking, as it takes up a lot of space on hers, and being able to lower that would be great. I would also like the other model to be similar to the java model. I just think it's missing a cookbook for the furnace and potion stand. Of course, the sound of the recipe unlocking should be equal to java

    I think that some recipes should have information about the product added, and a space to add your own to make it more personalized and tailored towards you. You could also have the option to sync the recipes across worlds.

    I think that the boat unlocking criteria should just be obtaining planks instead of having to step into water, as it only makes it inconvenient to quick craft boats in the early game.

    I loved the recipe unlock in the Bedrock edition, but i want de swooch sound. I think the option to disable this or change the size should be added, as mobile players have a very small screen, and something like that May obstruct the player's field of vision

    Can you make this an in-game option? For this, I don't want to see this pop up on every new game my nephews or nieces make daily; I would rather have all "Recipe unlocked," and if I want it on, then we can do that in game mode. I don't want to be spammed with a message telling me "Wood does this".

    Any options for this would be awesome!

    Like in-game for new worlds, this is off by default, meaning they are all unlocked. Then, if we want this information, we can go into our options settings, under Accessibility, to turn it on or off. Please! This was super annoying for me in Java; that's why I quit it. 🙏🙏🙏🙏

    This feature is not needed. I do not understand the purpose of the feature or the intention of implementing it. I understand parity is a concern however most of the parity changes that are happening are not only on Bedrock but sometimes take features away from players that could have easily been added to Java. This feature specifically takes away the ease of access to all crafting recipes and adds an unneeded barrier in its place. If this feature does go through please allow for players to be able to toggle it on and off.

    I think that the feature is nice but I would like it if there was a way to disable it because I personally like being able to see all the recipes from the start, so I can know what items/blocks I need to look out for without needing to search the recipes online.

    I think it's very smart, and I'm glad it's being added!
    Perhaps they should make it so if you have 1-3 items in one recipe (Depending on how important/complex it is) then you can see the item but not the recipe, or perhaps see the recipe and where the pieces you have go, but the rest of the pieces are covered by question marks?

    This is just going to make it harder for new players to learn what's needed for recipes. The recipe book should honestly stay the way it is.

    this would add a new way to advance in the game and would allow you to keep track of how far you've gotten just by looking at your recipes

    No! BOO!! You can't make me like this! NO! 
    I liked how you could see the recipe while just owning one item it needs and if you have no clue at all you could hunt through ALL the items you can craft with or without the items you have and see what you need WITHOUT having to go to the wiki

    I like this change, it brings bedrock closer to java but, also gives new players a sense of discovery with items they can't get until later on. Personally, I won't use it until its out of experimental settings but, I'm excited for it to be an actual mechanic.

    Really like there's an option for it to be toggled on and off. Please make sure this is off by default in marketplace worlds submitted before this was a feature. It's very important that players are not bombarded with unnecessary information when they pick up a log or something if it is not relevant to the mini game, adventure or whatever game mode it is. When this was rolled out on Java it caused a lot of problems in the map making community and I'm hoping this is taken into consideration this time around and done the right way to support older content before this was a feature that could result in unintended behavior.
