Great update but bugs need fixing, like the world not saving after leaving and everything gets lost.

But your inventory and the blocks placed in the previous version will be spared.

I mostly play by joining my son in the game running on his iPad. Every time I click on a chest in multiplayer, the app quits. Since I need to put all my stuff in a chest before I disconnect to avoid losing it all (and thus get it out again when I re-join), this has effectively rendered the game unplayable for me. Anyone got a suggestion?

I have that bug too, I hate it cuz I cant play multiplayer without filling my chest with stuff

Which approaches the question at hand: Did Jeb possibly reject some Kindle Fire users? Cause if he did, that could bring disaster everywhere...

We have a Kindle Fire. We just figured out how to update PE, we could do 0.4.0 to 0.5.0, but not to 0.6.0.
It is 9:13 PM on January 31st where I live, so time does not explain this.

Besides, maybe you have to remove the game from your device, then do the following:
[spoiler]Go to:
Games->Delete Minecraft: PE version->go to cloud(at top left)->re download Minecraft->play. [/spoiler]
