Stuttering/freezing after 1.21.70 update

Same here, My Ipad 9th could handle my 700mb world before the 1.21.70 update. Now the game freezes for a few seconds every and after 1-2 minutes. Another note is that my friends couldn’t join the world

Occurring on iPhone 15 as well. A 3-5 second pause once every 45-60 seconds.

Same for my iPad Air

same problem

Not sure if this is the problem, But I noticed that my render distance was set to the maximum. I’ve only set it to maximum to look around, but normally play on a lower/mid render distance range. I set it to my normal range, but on close and reloading minecraft it sets it back to maximum render distance.

Same with my phone poco f6

same problem render distance isn't an issue for me it started happening in the newest update

i have frequent stutters even on a superflat world on a brand new s23 (started using it on march 26)

this can also cause an issue with boats, the boat will think you are in it but the client will think you left, causing a schrodingers boat phenomonon

Freezing/Frame Drop like 3sec then back to normal

VNSX is spot on; 2.5 to 3 second freeze that occurs routinely every 45 - 60 seconds. World is almost unplayable at the moment. Hot patches 1.21.71 and 1.21.72 did not address this issue.

Reminds me of an earlier issue. I have it too but isn't as bad as before but very irritating when fighting mobs.

Same problem samsung galaxy a 35

Still having this problem over a month after the latest update

Problem is still persisting after the most recent update (1.21.73).

It’s not as bad 1.20.30, but Ancient cities, Trial Chambers, or flying around with elytra would probably all end in disaster with this bug. Hardcore worlds are too risky to be play at the moment.

Surprised how this got through the hotfixes when it's just there, hopefully this is dealt with soon cause the freezing is extremely irritating.

I have been experiencing this issue as well. I tried literally everything there is to try. From deleting and reinstalling Minecraft itself, to purging the entire “com.mojang” folder from my phone. Freezes still occur, even in the Beta branch, which I play. I have already eliminated they Beta branch being the issue, and I have left the Beta to test, and they still occur. I am using the S21 FE

I also Force Stopped, Cleared Cache, and it didn´t work. I uninstalled and reinstalled, still freezing. This problem has been going on for such a long time. I play MC daily but with this issue, I get in a bad mood and always want to just stop playing. I use a S23 Ultra Galaxy

Please fix this as soon as possible 🙏 🙏 🙏

I am playing on an iPad and having the same problem. I went from being a daily player to not playing at all because the stuttering irritates me so much. I have performed all recommended restarts, adjusted in-game settings, cache clearing, app-deletion and refreshes…nothing has improved performance. I started playing a different mobile game, which is a huge money-pit. Give me back my Minecraft! 😞

That happens to me too, and I've tried many things, and nothing:(

Please fix this🙏😭

It's not fun to play with that problem anymore :(

Me too. Its happens after 1.21.70

1.21.81 does not address this issue either. With so many platforms this bug continues to big down, you think it would be a priority. Maybe it’s a long time coming, but I’ve ended the auto renewal for our Realms+ account. It would just be nice if someone within Mojang could acknowledge this problem exists. But Minecraft seems to have lost its swagger

I have two videos of the stutter.

I hate to say it, but this is one of the only situations in which saying that the Switch version is not the worst is at least acceptable. It still sucks, but not like this.

Many players are disadvantaged by this

Switch version does have randomly decreasing render distance in massive worlds though.
