Click here to update to 0.6.0 in iTunes!

The most recent patch for Minecraft Pocket Edition is now live! Click on the image above, or visit iTunes (or the Android app store) to update your version now! If it isn't currently available, give it a few hours, to account for regional distribution time differences.

What is new in 0.6.0?

Signs
Armor
- Applying process is similar to smelting: choose from armour on the left and see a preview of the player on the right
Baby animals: Unclear how they are obtainable, as Breeding is not going to be added in 0.6.0
The Sky and Clouds (Appearance varies between fast and slow devices)
Improved D-pad
Design is more blocky and less rounded
When in flight mode, there is a "wing" icon on the jump button
Sheep can be colored with dyes
Blocks:
- Netherrack
- Nether Brick
- Block of Quartz
- Chiseled Quartz Block
- Pillar Quartz Block
- Cracked Stone Brick (creative only)
- Mossy Stone Brick (creative only)
- Stone Cutter
- Chiseled Sandstone
- Smooth Sandstone
Stairs:
- Nether Brick Stairs
- Sandstone Stairs
- Stone Brick Stairs
- Quartz Stairs
Slabs:
- Sandstone Slab
Items:
- Nether Brick (item) (smelted from netherrack and crafted into nether brick tile)
- Upside-down stairs, corner stairs
- Slabs can be placed in up position (needs testing on small screens)
- Sand and Gravel are affected by gravity
Tweaks:
- Recipes for crafting slabs give 6 slabs instead of 3 (as in PC version)
- Nether Reactor spawns Netherrack blocks instead of Obsidian
- The fog and sky color have changed
- The Nether Reactor now spawns more items
- Cows drop Leather
Bug Fixes:
- Melons had several bugs where they would spawn too fast and where they shouldn’t

Still no buckets?
And is a nether portal too ram consuming? (Or possibly disk consuming[Are you waiting for infdev to make that?])

How do i get melon seeds? And when i multiplay with my iPod and iPad3 the map doesnt load and gets disconnected automattically, but works fine with iPad2. Is that a bug? or just a network problem?

Major bug. Changing difficulty (trying to sleep) then logging into your world means it reverts to an older chunk. My whole netherrack tower vanished, and some 10 quartz block plus two stonecutters. Bah.

My new map, 'Carvhill City' is coming soon to MCPE! - MCPE 0.6.0 Alpha is coming soon! With Signs, Armour and Quartz! - I'm also on YouTube!

Nether reactor spawns melon seeds I haven't activated another one yet (still collecting obsidian fron it) I hear it is nether rack now and I found a bug where when stairs are facing different orientations they have different textures ex: quarts stairs one way are normal another pillar another chiseled same with sandstone and stone brick one way cracked anther way mossy

I just noticed that's it keeps your inventory but not saving what you place so If you have an precious blocks you can dig them relog then dig them again to dupe them right now!!!!

I love this update ... How do I put on the armour? I can't find it in any of my GUI interfaces.

Go into your inventory and it should be there next to the craft button! If you have armour in your inventory just press it and it appears on the player

Need Help? Ask Me!

great update, shame mcpe is not available for blackberry playbook.
can confirm slabs can be place in up position on small screen, (iPhone 4)
sand and gravel do fall but blocks above 1st vanish and are not collectible.
was greeted by several baby animals when starting new world.
