Minecraft’s latest update, known as Trials and Tales (1.20), has brought a plethora of exciting new content. Mojang continues to refine this massive update even months after its initial release. If you’re eager to dive into all the new features, our guide to installing the Minecraft 1.20.80 APK will walk you through the process.

However, it’s important to note that this guide is not intended to facilitate piracy. If you’re looking to play Minecraft for free, check out our separate guide for that. This guide is specifically for users facing issues with the game and need to manually install an APK to resolve them.

While the 1.20 update is available on all supported platforms, the process of downloading and installing it varies depending on the device you’re using. For instance, Pocket Edition players may need to manually upgrade their Minecraft client via an APK. Below, we outline the steps to download and install the Minecraft 1.20.80 APK to access the latest content.

How to Update and Install Minecraft 1.20.80 APK

For PC users, updating Minecraft is relatively straightforward, as it can be done through various programs such as the official launcher, Microsoft Store, or Xbox’s PC Game Pass. However, mobile devices require a slightly different approach, as they run on minimal executable files. Here’s how to update and install the Minecraft Pocket Edition APK:

  1. Download the XAPK package from a reputable source of your choice.
  2. Once downloaded, rename the file extension from “.xapk” to “.zip”.
  3. Unzip the file into any folder on your system.
  4. Create a new folder in the local folder system of your device, typically located at /sdcard/storage/emulated/0/Android/obb/<OBBname>/, where “<OBBname>” represents the OBB file name without the extension.
  5. Copy the OBB file to the folder you created.
  6. Install the APK file that you extracted.

If your device prevents you from installing the game even after following all the steps correctly, you can try the following:

  1. Navigate to Settings > Security.
  2. Enable the option “Unknown sources”.
  3. Tap “OK” on the prompt message.
  4. Select “Trust”.

How to Update and Install Minecraft 1.20.80 iOS

Updating and installing Minecraft 1.20.80 on iOS devices follows a different process compared to Android devices. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you update and install Minecraft 1.20.80 on iOS:

  1. Check for Updates: Open the App Store on your iOS device and navigate to the “Updates” tab at the bottom right corner of the screen. If Minecraft 1.20.80 is listed, tap on the “Update” button next to it to download and install the update.
  2. Automatic Updates: If you have enabled automatic app updates on your iOS device, Minecraft should update automatically whenever a new version is available. To ensure automatic updates are enabled, go to “Settings” on your iOS device, then tap on “App Store”.
  3. Manual Installation (if necessary): If for some reason the update does not appear in the App Store or if you prefer to install it manually, you can follow these steps:
    • Open the App Store and search for “Minecraft”.
    • If the update is available, you’ll see the option to update the app. Tap on “Update” to download and install Minecraft 1.20.80.
    • If you don’t see the update option, it’s possible that the update hasn’t been released for your region yet. In this case, you may need to wait a bit longer until it becomes available.
  4. App Store Account Region: Sometimes, updates may be available in certain regions before others. If you’re eager to get the update as soon as possible, you can try changing your App Store region to a country where the update has already been released. However, keep in mind that changing your region may affect your access to other apps and content.

By following these steps, you should be able to update and install Minecraft 1.20.80 on your iOS device smoothly. Enjoy exploring the new content and features in the latest version of Minecraft!
