In The 1.7.0.9 beta when you go to your skins and choose a custom skin or change you have to restart minecraft so reopen it to see how you look, this is atiny annoying since you have to reopen minecraft everytime you change your skin.

This still appears to be an issue for Android in the latest beta.
migrated
Yeah, this glitch is very annoying if you change your skins a lot like me.
migrated
Same here
migrated
This is an issue for 1,7 and the 1,8 beta and does effect win10.
migrated
Oh thank god I'm am not the only one
migrated
This has been happening to me too! I’m so glad me and my friends aren’t the only ones!

This is extremely annoying, especially when playing on a realm. Exiting and re-starting the app, and re-joining the realm is very frustrating just to change a skin setting. Hope more people vote for this bug and that fixing it is given a MUCH higher priority.
migrated
I am also having a problem in which if no custom skin has been uploaded to your game before then trying to add one will crash the game.
migrated
After doing this 2 times, my minecraft pretty much broke. I couldn’t get to the menu. Only to the Mojang and then Minecraft intro screen. MCPE-38112
migrated
I am very disappointed that this is not fixed yet I have been stuck with no skin for over a month.
migrated
same with bedrock edition
migrated
Yes, this is in fact a Bedrock Edition bug report.

Wow new Update but they dont change the Skin Bug. Its annyoing to wait that long.

Is anyone getting this issue in the 1.9 beta versions at all?
Jonathan5733
According to my friend's server's latest blog post this issue affects 1.9.0.3
migrated
What do you mean "resolved" will it be fixed in the next update or something or.... Wait probably... But the fact that this was reported in October of 2018 should probably say something...
[Mojang] Mega_Spud (Jay)
This issue should be fixed in the 1.9 beta version. Non beta-players may continue to see the issue until 1.9 is fully released, so we will leave this ticket open as a point of reference until then.
migrated
In iOS 12, mcpe ver 1.8.1 it just solid refuses to change if you do not already have a custom skin on
migrated
This issue does not appear to be fixed in 1.9 on iOS. I am still unable to out on a custom skin.
migrated
I can agree the latest version is still broken
migrated
The Confirm Button is Unclickable when picking Skins from Photos,
But is clickable with Skin Packs. Will that be fixed anytime soon?
[Mojang] Mega_Spud (Jay)
Repro steps in 1.9.0:
Choose and apply a custom skin
Check that it has applied
Now attempt to choose and apply a different custom skin
Results:
The skin cannot be changed to another custom skin, as the confirm button is greyed out, and other players cannot see the new skin. Restarting the game applies the new skin, though.
Workaround:
Change to a marketplace skin in between changing custom skins, this should allow the new custom skin to be applied immediately.

Can confirm this is not always the case actually

I am having this problem as well.
[Mojang] Mega_Spud (Jay)
@unknown - That may not be a valid skin, or a different issue altogether.
migrated
This the problem I’ve been having the Confirm button won’t be clickable for any of the skins I pick even if it’s the one I’m using.
migrated
Mega_Spud the issue P is having is likely a new issue but was caused by this one.
migrated
I'm sill experiencing this issue in version 1.11.3

I'm having the same problem.. uh, here's a photo: ( it's in the attachments thing cuz I can't find a button in the comment )

Here It says the issue was resolved but I'm not able to use my skin anymore for the exact same "limited usage" as others.
