When you hold and charge a bow , it is in the wrong hand . This makes is really hard to aim.
I found this bug right after 1.2.14, and I searched. It is also in the experimental gameplay. And ex-gameplay is off, to. It was in creative , and survival.
May be a duplicated of MCPE 32087.

I suspect this visual glitch is created by how they are trying to make the trident look better when you hold it. It perhaps messed up the bow too. I dont really know i am just speculating .

This happens on my iPad Air but not on my Samsung Galaxy Note 8. I play on realms with same sign in. A buddy of mine is also on the realms with a Mini 2 and didn’t notice the bow issue.

Cole Warren 2018-04-08T05:55:12Z

My bow just stopped working all together.

[Mojang] Mega_Spud (Jay) 2018-04-09T09:24:30Z

Does this issue with the bow happen in single player as well as realms?

Michael Gill 2018-04-09T12:37:34Z

It does for me. Just loaded a single player survival and tested. Made an unenchanted bow and everything. Just holding it appears in right hand but when using it switches to left and gets real high.

It does happen with single player @mega_spud. It makes it pretty hard to aim.

Also, I have a fully loaded power 4 bow that no longer single shot kills most of the time – might be a new feature, not sure, but I used to be able to single shot kill most mobs with it.

Michael Gill 2018-04-09T12:45:58Z

Agreed, bow is weaker. Even my friend who isn’t having the visual glitch has mentioned it.

Is Minecraft pe 1.2.13 or 1.2.14?

Michael Gill 2018-04-09T18:17:49Z

I think its 1.2.14. 1.2.13 came out and 1.2.14 was hot on its heels so I'm pretty sure it's the latest. I don't have my iPad directly in front of me though. I'll confirm later this evening.

Leslie Peters 2018-04-09T20:24:40Z

I am having this problem too. It's one of many problems I've had since MCPE updated to version 1.2.13.54. This is a minor one compared to the others.

Michael Gill 2018-04-10T01:16:30Z

1.2.14 is confirmed. Thanks

I have seen this same issue, I only notice it when I play at my native resolution (2560x1440). However when I shrink the window to 1440x900 it animates correctly on the right.

Windows 10 Ver. BTW.

Jonathan5733 2018-04-10T02:24:30Z

Also an issue on Windows 10
A workaround for Windows 10 is lower the display resolution (e.g from 1920x1080 to 1280x1024 on my 1080p monitor)

I have just downloaded the latest version for iOS, 1.2.15, and the first thing I had to do in my single player survival game was shoot at a monster. I get exactly the same thing as the pictures, a huge bow that fills the left hand side of the screen. If this is a new design 'feature' then a big mistake has been made because it detracts from the game - if a bug then please fix as soon as possible.

Creeper 14 2018-04-20T15:40:10Z

This is also in 1.2.16

Hassan AlHashim 2018-04-21T07:25:05Z

I have the same glitch on my iPad.

xXProphetXx 2018-04-27T14:12:27Z

I have been reseving the same issue my bow pulles,aims, and shoots on the left side of my screen it has been doing this for three versions back to back the versions are 1.2/1.3/and1.5 it does make it really hard to aim and hit the target you try to shoot.

Device I'm on:
My device is a Android tablet Viking pro RCA version 6.0

Julius Potasz 2018-05-03T01:56:58Z

This bug is so hideous to look at.

Joshua Gano 2018-05-20T21:33:20Z

I'm afflicted with this as well & it makes aiming to fire with the Bow stupidly hard. As of the time of this Comment, i'm on Bedrock Edition on my W10 Computer, V1.40, Update Aquatic Phase 1.

George 2018-05-21T14:59:32Z

Same Issue here using IOS iPad Pro

Brady Nolan 2018-05-26T18:26:45Z

I still have this problem...

Brady Nolan 2018-05-26T18:28:02Z

Easy way to fix it is to go to setting and turn on “hide hand” so that if your playing a gamemode on servers or just in general you won’t see the bow but can still aim.

Darwin Kim 2018-06-04T08:15:27Z

What I've noticed is that it's like the bow animation and eating animation are "swapped." You eat at the side of the screen while you use the bow on the center. My game has been switching between being normal and being like this, and both animations has been broken or fixed together.

Makzevu 2018-06-05T13:23:35Z

If I go into fullscreen mode on Windows 10 (1920 x 1080), this doesn't happen to me anymore.

[Mojang] Mega_Spud (Jay) 2018-07-10T16:30:55Z

This was fixed in the 1.5.0.7 beta, and should be fixed for everyone now that 1.5.0.14 (stable) is out.

moonshine77 2018-07-19T23:17:19Z

yep, fixed for me
