Difficult to place blocks where intended. The block goes next to or above where you want to put it. Also when trying to remove a block often it’s one below or next to the intended block.

I am having this exact same issue after the fox update. I play Bedrock on a Samsung tablet. I play in 3rd-person back because 1st person makes me motion-sick. The inability to place or break a block where intended is making the game unplayable. Please fix this soon! I play all the time with friends on a Realm and this has really put a stop to that. >_<

I can’t play now either, it’s a waste of time to try and build anything!

No change after today’s update and the screen is jumpy 

Screen no longer jumpy but can’t lay or destroy blocks where intended. Help!

Since issue reported more updates have been done but the problem still exists!

Same here. I think it is slightly better than it was, but it is still really frustrating. I think I have kind of figured out what the problem is. When I touch the screen, instead of targeting the block I touch, it targets the block that WOULD be my target in relation to where I am clicking IF i were playing in 1st person. But when I am in 3rd person, I can't see where that would be, and so it doesn't make sense... like, I literally cannot see a block in front of me, so in the past, when I needed to break, say, a block directly above me, I would aim down and target that block (because I could see it to target it. If I looked up at it, I would no longer be able to see it). Now, doing that breaks or places blocks below me or on the ground below whatever block I am trying to target... Even with the lines on that highlight the targeted block, I am screwed, because I can't see to target the blocks the game THINKS I want to target because my avatar is in the way. The upshot is... Please, guys, play in 3rd person for a bit and figure out how to make this work. I haven't been able to play on my realm in weeks and it's making me very sad and frustrated.
Playing in 3rd person requires more control over and flexibility in breaking and placing blocks. It just does. That is the nature of it.

No change after all updates, in third person back mode blocks don’t go where intended. PLEASE HELP! Thanks
