A setting to make your left hand the main hand (because Minecraft cares about left handed people)

    Like me I'm also left handed and being forced to play with a right handed character kinda frustrates me.

    Yup, we need this. It's really annoying seeing my hand in the right corner and not being able to change it.

    I absolutely agree with this comment, I absolutely agree with this comment I am honestly surprised this is not already A thing. I had my right arm which was my dominant arm amputated recently and would love to be able to play Minecraft with one hand!

    Even though I'm right handed irl, my character is supposed to only have her left arm, so it's kinda awkward accessibility wise that she has to use a prosthetic she doesn't actually have in canon for everything.

    To me, left-handed Minecraft just looks plain wrong. This would definitely be helpful to some players, however.

    Yes! I want to finally hold my stuff in my left hand!

    Kind of messed up that this isn't already one of the parody changes made considering its an accessibility thing. 

    Even if it wasn't some right-handed people enjoy playing left handed anyway.

    It should be added as a feature of the character creator so different characters can have different dominant hands.

    10% of the minecraft playerbase is like 12 million so 12 million people are currently without the left handed setting if they so play on bedrock edition, it's been since the start of minecraft PE we have never had that option and it sucks cus it feels humiliating too.

    Yes, I Agree. I Am Also Left Handed And I Want Them To Make A Left Hand, Right Hand, And Either Hands Option On The Video Settings. I Have Been Playing Minecraft Pocket Edition Mobile Android For 5 Years And I Want Them To Make The Left Hand, Right Hand, And Either Hands Hand Option On The Video Settings.

    the lefty does not do anything search in touch and lefty appears. That is important to the main hand settings but not useful. Dual welding like in Java should be cool

    We've been waiting for 3 years, and Mojang keeps avoiding us. Maybe the guys will make a petition that we are humiliated, so it will be more useful

    i am left handed and i have java but use bedrock for vr since there is no official way to play java in vr. sadly, minecraft bedrock edition does not have a left handed feature which makes it much harder to do certain tasks i would do in my left hand.

    Why has this STILL not been added?! I mean, they're doing all these parity updates to Bedrock to make it more in-line with Java, so the fact that I still can't make my character left-handed is RIDICULOUS.

    As a lefty, I cannot and will not play bedrock until the left hand can be my main hand. Unbelievable that this isn't a thing yet. I hope this is not indicative of what Microsoft has in store for the future of Minecraft, to disenfranchise large portions of their patrons.

    I am left handed and I wish in-game I could be too. I don't have any divided that can play java so this would be an awesome new feature.

    I honestly like the sound of this idea. I may not be left-handed, but for those who are this would be a great feature.
