map sharing with realms (free)

A realm that allows 0 players, that includes the host. That is just used to transfer worlds from one platform to another. Most of the time i just want to transfer my single player world to another platform and don't need to allow 3-10 people because it's only for me to play on. And i really rather not pay just to transfer it. Have the realm only up for 24 hours then it shuts down.
Even less if you wanted to. Maybe limit the amount of free ones you get per month.

Think of the people who buy a different console for instance. Perhaps they have been working on a world for years. And they don't really have the money to switch over. And they have to trade in their current console to help pay for the other. All that work would be lost forever.

    Yeah we definitely need to be allowed to transfer from system to system for FREE. I can't stress that enough.

    It's crazy because we already have to pay again for each platform we download on, but then when you try to play a world on your mobile that you play on your console you can't without paying, and then you also need a solid internet connection. I play on Xbox but often travel and want to take my world with me. All worlds are already saved online as well as on the Xbox, so just give us the option to upload and download the worlds across devices. At the very least, we should have an option to save a world to OneDrive or the likes and an easy, in game way to download your uploaded world onto each device when you want to play it.

    Or even just build an option within the edit world options beside copy and delete to upload world. Then you can search for cloud worlds on your other device and download them, similar to what you do if you want an old version world to go to bedrock. All versions store worlds online already over an internet connection so you can play them on the same account when using a different but same type of device (eg 2 different xboxes or switches)
