Severe touch input delay and unresponsive controls on Minecraft Bedrock / Pocket Edition 1.21.113.1 (Android)
---
**Summary:**
After updating to version **1.21.113.1**, Minecraft Pocket Edition and Bedrock Edition players are experiencing noticeable **touch input delay** and lag in overall responsiveness. This issue affects gameplay precision, combat timing, and general control smoothness — especially on Android devices.
---
**Platform:**
Android (example device: **Vivo T4x**, but issue also appears on other Android phones)
Edition: Minecraft Bedrock / Pocket Edition
Version: **1.21.113.1**
Input method: Touch controls (default layout, classic & new both tested)
---
**Operating System Version:**
Android 15 (Funtouch OS 15) — Vivo T4x
---
**Steps to Reproduce:**
1. Launch Minecraft Bedrock / Pocket Edition version 1.21.113.1.
2. Start any existing or new world (Creative or Survival).
3. Try moving, breaking blocks, or switching tools quickly.
4. Notice a short but consistent delay between touch input and on-screen response.
---
**Expected Result:**
Touch controls should respond **instantly** to input, as in earlier versions (for example, before 1.21.90). The game should feel smooth and accurate, especially during fast actions such as PvP or building.
---
**Observed Result:**
* Noticeable **delay (≈0.2–0.5 s)** after each tap or movement gesture.
* Affects all control types (Classic, Crosshair, and New Touch).
* Delay persists even when graphics are lowered, FPS is stable, and no other apps are running.
* The issue occurs in-world, in menus, and even on the title screen.
---
**Additional Information:**
* This issue started around versions **1.21.111.1 → 1.21.113.1**.
* Multiple community members have reported similar lag across Reddit and Minecraft forums.
* Reinstalling, clearing cache, and enabling “Game Mode” on the device do not solve the issue.
* No such delay was present in older builds such as 1.21.90 or 1.21.101.

Hi Mojang team 👋
I saw that this issue has been marked as Resolved, but I’m still facing the same touch input delay in version 1.21.113.1 on my device (Vivo T4x, Android 15 / Funtouch OS 15).
Could you please confirm whether this problem has been officially fixed in a newer build (like 1.21.114 or higher), or if it was closed as a duplicate of another report?
Thanks for your time and for continuing to improve Minecraft Mobile! 😊
