Remember that only those on Xbox One / Windows 10 / and Android may participate in the Beta builds.  You will not be able to join Realms or non-beta players worlds and you will not be able to open worlds opened in the Beta in earlier/current stable builds of Bedrock.

Are you ready for your grass to spread, crops, and trees to grow again?  I am!  I'm also excited and happy to see the changes and fixes for other pesky issues as well.  

Bug Fixes
