I'm not feeling the sluggishness anymore.
Is this still happening for anyone else?

It's still sluggish. Try to toggle sensitivity to 100 and swipe fast

When swiping fast, the screen barely moves, i have this glitch too.

I have the same issue. I get clobbered in PVP because I cannot turn quickly to face my opponent. Fast swipes register as screen touches (I see the touch circle move respectively across the screen), but to not turn the player's view. Just like in the attached videos.
Device: Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge.

I have this problem too, since 1.1.

This issue is still happening in version 1.2.6 on my Samsung Galaxy S8+
When trying to turn really quick the screen moves just a bit and then just hangs. Also normal turning also feels sluggish.
Sometimes the screen doesn't turn at all when swiping fast.
This seems to be fixed for me as of 1.2.6. There is no obvious stuttering when looking around (it would usually be pretty dire on my older Samsung TabPro SM-T520)
As for the other sensitivity issues, very little physical movement is needed to look around when the sensitivity is adjusted, so that should be working as intended.
EDIT: Just had this occur randomly again on my Oneplus One.

Happened to me again on 1.2.8. It had stopped for a while. My ipad was not plugged in when it happened this time (not stray voltage). I was hosting a world with 1-3 LAN players. Steady when not turning, but jerks when turning. Sensitivity was only 70, reducing it did not resolve. Later whehen checking, it was gone.

I think i have the same problem on my Xiaomi Redmi Note 4X.
Please take a look at the video below:

It stutters a lot.

Affects 1.2.11. It isn't related to rain or snow, at least not for me.

If this is the screen glitch issue then it is happening for me almost every time I play. When turning the screen jumps and twitches making the game virtually unplayable. I have mostly stopped recording PE videos because it is just terrible to play like that. I use a Samsung S8. Please fix this!

Hey Mojang, this glitch has affected the game on my iPad and my Samsung J3 phone since version 1.2.13.60. It is too annoying and makes the game unplayable. 😞 PLEASE FIX IT AS SOON AS POSSIBLE!!

This bug happens to me as well. I use touch controls with a sensitivity of 70. After a few minutes of playing, the screen would get very twitchy when I look around which is extremely annoying! The only way I see to fix it is to restart the game (but sadly it comes back after a few minutes 😞 ). Please fix this bug. :'(

That's a bug with the touchscreen itself. I experience this with most games on my phone

I have noticed that same thing, just in Minecraft

(More appropriate report for my issue, sorry)
1.6.0 Android
Sensitivity 50
Captured something that happens every 30 seconds
Here with touch pointers the screen warps looking down, most times upwards, sometimes the opposite direction I was looking

That happens to me to.
it’s very annoying on servers because when i’m in the middle of the game it happens and the only way to fix it is to restart minecarft. I hate it
Is this still an issue in the latest version?

And in 1.8.0.13 beta for android too

Still getting this in 1.8.0.24 for android, happens nearly every time i look around.

I've been having this jitter issue for awhile, but most recently on ver. 1.8.1 on an iPad mini 4.

Does this only happen when the user is charging their device?
I used to have a similar issue with touch controls when I was charging my old phone, Samsung Galaxy S.

Unfortunately, in at least my case, it does not seem to be an issue with electrical noise. It happens both when plugged into a charger and when not plugged in.
After the latest update it seems to take less time for this issue to reoccur. It's extremely annoying to have to force-close the app every 5-10 minutes because the controls start getting so twitchy it's unplayable.

Meant to say this after 1.10.0 came out but it is still an issue with 1.10.0 bedrock.

Still unfixed in 1.11.4.

This is happening on my ipad 5 too, although it also seems to happen when playing multiplayer over LAN.

I’m on iPad mini 4 iOS 12.3.1 and have had this issue and continue to have this issue on all my iOS devices. Current version MCPE 1.12.0

1.12.1 and its still there, turning my camera view sometimes stutters, and i need to click the menu and go back to get rid of it.

Consistently reproducible by backgrounding and foregrounding the game. Samsung S7 active, and Pixel 3 XL. Current app version is 1.14.1.

I managed to record a video of the stuttering.
[media]
It happened to me as well since I got the Samsung Galaxy S8 the screen has been shaking and it's really annoying I don't exactly have the beta but my version is 1.14.30

confirmed for 1.16 beta on Bedrock.

Yeah same thing happens to me sometimes, but It just doesn’t really bother me.

Sometimes it will be drastic and keep resetting your view angle repeatedly to the same point and only gradually move it no matter how fast you try to look.

I also have the same problem but I'm using bedrock.

Affects 1.16.200.55 Beta.

Affects 1.16.100.59

This also happens to me a lot as well. The only way i found to fix this is to close the app and then reopen it. But it wont stop it for good, it will start again after awhile. as well as that the device I'm using takes 1 min just to open the app. But ay that's one way how you can fix this, for a little

Can confirm in 1.16.201! This happens a lot to my friend on iOS and occasionally to me on Android!

Is there a way to fix this for everyone?
It happens to me a lot and it is very annoying, I have to close the game and open it again but the problem returns after a while. Please the bug has been going on since 2016.

the reason i stopped playing minecraft for a while was because of this bug!

this bug also appears in 1.16.210

Yes this happens a lot to me and quite frequently since it rains a lot on my map in my city and that is apparently related to the issue somehow. I play on Nintendo switch. Also mine doesn’t stutter it’s more of a quick slight zoom in and zoom out. I will try to get a video of it.

I posted a video of my version of this issue on Nintendo switch. The camera will occasionally zoom out then in just a bit back to where it started from when you are moving around. In my video it happens towards the end and then I stop in order to record it then check to make sure it saved the video.

I have been experiencing this issue a lot on my Samsung Galaxy A52 device

Actually, sometimes it just happens randomly without you doing anything.

Affects 1.17.30.22 Beta

Affects 1.17.34

Same. Since weeks. In every dimension/situation. Opening the inventory or a chest always resolves it, moving the camera helps sometimes.
[media]currently on v1.17.41, iPad Pro 11” 2nd gen, iPadOS 15.0.2

I have that in 1.18.2 as well. I found that tapping pause, and unpausing will instantly fix it. It's very annoying, and I hope it gets fixed!

1.18.2.03 stable, Poco x3 pro, android 11.
Happened after been afk on iron farm for night. Restarting game helped

It's sad that this hasn't been fixed after 6 years. This still happens to me (although I don't use mobile that often anymore), and I'm surprised this hasn't been acknowledged yet by the devs!

I literally get this bug 5 minutes into playing the game and it's always pretty annoying. Pressing pause or opening the inventory sometimes fixes it again, other times it doesn't tho and only a complete restart would help. It seems to be especially bad on worlds with many entities and builds that cause extra stress on the device. On servers it doesn't happen nearly as frequent. Device is Samsung Galaxy A51, 4 Gb ram
I hope this issue gets some more attention and can be fixed :,)

Wait, i also experience this on my mobile 1.18.32

This bug affects v1.19.0

This happens to me more than I’d like. Sometimes, I’ll move my camera around and the screen will start jittering like crazy. Changing my FOV used to help, but now it hardly does anything. I just have to wait until it stops.

This is Happening In 1.19.2
Never happened to me before 1.19

Affects 1.19.10

Confirmed bug still present in version 1.19.50.02 for Android.

yeap. same. on my side it happen like this https://bugs.mojang.com/secure/attachment/452012/IMG_3363-1.MOV sometimes. maybe something to do with in game mouse acceleration/pointerprecision or what ever u call it.

It happens A lot on mobile devices and Nintendo switch but going to menu and back fixed this for while + for some reason turning off fov affected by gameplay makes this bug rarer

@unknown The Version 1.20.14 for PS4/PS5 Is outdated.

Still an issue in 1.20.51
