    It's great to see these changes and since you're working on new buttons and a user interface I suggest adding a button at the crafting table "craft all" that makes it easier for you to transfer the resources you have. For example, you have 64 oak log that you want to convert all to oak wood. Instead of continuous pressure, you press the "craft all" button and it will convert all of it to facilitate the process (With just one click)

    I really like the new controls/buttons but i think that they should be bottom right instead of top right. The joystick is really good and i feel like there is no need to change anything related to it. Also i would love if we're able to customize the placement of the buttons/joy stick instead of being specific to a certain area on the screen.

    It's awesome! But you need to add the ability to customize the location of the buttons. We also need to add the ability to place blocks by touch, even if the “Show Action Buttons” option is enabled, this would be very convenient!

    The new control scheme looks and feels smooth so far. As someone who has played with the old one for years, I would easily imagine myself switching to the new one without any trouble. One nitpick I have with the new control scheme however is that the joystick feels like it's located a bit too high on the screen and is a bit too large as of right now. Overall, I'd say it feels pretty great right now.

    I like it, but the joystick size doesn't change with the respective setting and takes a lot of the screen

    Add a special button for opening the elytra and the fireworks in order to facilitate a flight operation In the classic and other new situations. It will be useful and fast without the need for a high place, and also in servers, in addition, if you fall in the middle of the ocean or lava and there is no land near you

    I would like to be able to change the position of the icons in the new controls system for mobile devices. Also I would like to be able to change the size of the joystick. Overall, is a very good change to mobile devices.

    Please let us use the original controls, maybe make it optional in settings? I think just for accessibility this should be possible :)

    Don't fix something if it isn't broken.

    Mobile controls in Minecraft have been the best on a mobile game, the addition of a joystick and whatever the other buttons are just are horrible.

    Sprinting should be when you're joystick is at the edge of the circle

    I wish we can customize the new controls or atleast update the classic ones. I don't like the new one cause of the crosshair. I like swiping and just tapping when you place or break a block.

    If the change is to be able to use the secondary hand, I propose that the touch screen be divided into 2 to be able to use both hands. That is: if I touch the right part of the screen, the right hand is activated, and if I touch the left part of the screen, the left hand is activated

    Soo having played on touch for the past 10 years I would say the same: I think that the pad like control is not something I like for a game like minecraft, I think that a WASD button UI would be better suited for this game even though it is what we have had ever since mcpe was released in 2011.

    I think that the crouch and jump buttons as well as the sprint one on the right are not a bad choice however we definitely need the possibility to configure their position since on my device they are place basically in a very high position.

    I think that a good setup would be the "old" wasd array on the left with the new jump and crouch controls on the right.

    If you plan to keep a joystick type of control nontheless I would definitely change its UI since it does not blend at all with the game and looks like one from a Minecraft spinoff and I would also add an option to have it appear and center where the player touches instead of having it in the same fixed position all the time.

    I have to say again that in my opinion a wasd setup is better than a joystick one for minecraft on touch devices.

    Something that should be able to be done is to customize the location of the buttons, or to be able to put and remove buttons from other controls, thus better adapting to the gameplay of each player, and also an option so that when holding down the jump button the player keep jumping or leave it as it is currently "Keep jumping" (I speak Spanish)

    The joystick looks weirdly pixelated and blurry which I am not fond of, the joystick should definitely change.

    I hope this stay as an option, and not the new one and only format for controls. It seems good, but I would prefer to keep playing the way I have been, and not have to relearn the controls. I am sure that there are lots of other people who would prefer to continue using the classic controls, too.

    If you enter settings and then the touch menu, you can turn on 'enable new touch control schemes' and then you can change the 'interaction model' in the drop box below to touch, crosshair or classic.

    If you feel the joystick is taking up too much of the screen you can change the settings/touch options to turn off 'move joystick visible' and 'move joystick visible when not moving'. This will hide the joystick.

    If you do not like the joystick being fixed in the corner of the screen in the setting/touch options you can turn off 'static joystick'. This will then generate the joystick wherever you touch the screen :)
