My Wi-Fi is terrible, and although I can host with it, the world crashes often. Therefore, I've been trying to host using my cellular data to no avail.
I turned on the "Use Cellular" option on the Minecraft app but when the world loads, it doesn't give me the option to invite my friends. In the in-game settings, it shows the "multiplayer game" option as "off" although it was on before entering the world. My friends also don't see me active on the app from their phones/laptops.
I've toggled off and on the "Use Cellular" option, reset my phone, and uninstalled and reinstalled the app but it still doesn't work.
