EDIT: So I see that it was marked as unable to reproduce. I do want to mention I was using color codes in the title originally, and I may have glitched the Realm or something like that. It'd be great though if someone looked into it with color codes in the Realm title.
I cannot change my Realm's name. Anytime I change it, I click "x" and it will not save my changes. This may be because I have colors codes in my Realm's name, but I don't think that's what is causing this bug. I've seen this since 0.16.0, but is still in 1.0. This bug exists on both Windows 10, and iOS (I assume Android too).
Edit by @unknown:
Any text that uses the '§' symbol in it cannot be changed after the initial edit.

Asking to be reopened because the bug is still present for me. I edited the OP with more information.
Me either, I attempted to do the formatting codes for the Realm name, and it defaulted to the previous name AND locked the realm name. This is frustrating, knowing that I am paying for this, and there is nothing I can do to fix it. I created my own separate issue related to, but regarding the fact that now you cannot even change the Realm name to any name with "§" in it.

Omg this is the same thing that's happened to me ): just got my realms and I used colorcodes in the beginning and now when I try to change it it's not updating and it undid the color codes at the start): very dissatisfied! I might try the close realms but I don't think that will work. PLEASE HELP or at least gimme like a new realm!
I can confirm this issue for 0.16.x, but am unable to reproduce it in 1.0 due to a bug with my realms not being accessible.
