This has been happening in my Realm, I am the owner.  It seems to happen to me and the one player whose chat is being sent to me claims my chat appears to him.  But, the difference is, he chat will appear in the chat and others can see, I respond to have that player say he did not say that.  This is happening with him there.  When he leaves, I will get random messages sent to me, and I know he's left.  I will check to see that he did not come back and I just didn't see, and no he is gone.  I will also confirm that it does not show he is there and it doesn't.  The one I received last night after he left first asked "where are you" and then the 2nd came much later and used my gamer and again asked, "gamer where are you"   It is freaking me out and actually making me scared.  I am usually in the realm alone and last night was in level 14 near slate and a mineshaft and the messages came through.  I had to leave my realm.  I know it's a game and nothing will happen to me but it just is makes me feel unsafe and I don't  like how I feel when it appears like these messages were directed to me.

He says, he did not say whatever appeared even before I respond,  So, like sometimes it will say "I got to go", I will respond with "ok", and he will end up saying he never said that, and he is present to see the message that gets posted.  But he says he sees mine, but has never responded to it and never has said what I had supposedly said.

I am ready to think it is him, but I reported to Minecraft and they said to look here, no response to tell me if it could be him or that it is not but a definite bug.   So, I am here looking.  If this is not what you are all experiencing, please let me know so I can make a report for it.

I must add it happened also on my Original Realm, and we are playing in another of mine and it is happening there now also.

Thank you

I waited overnight also, because I had seen where the Pc/Java Realms had a crash, and thought maybe Pe/Bedrock did also.  But nothing changed.  That’s when I decided I had to go back to the re-install again, but i play on my iPad  but have it also on my phone but usually not a world I play in a lot so having it delete didn’t matter.  The realm you don’t have to worry about losing it is downloaded with Mojang, so we will never lose what we created.  But if you have other worlds you play in other than the realm, you will want to backup before doing a delete minecraft and reinstall.  If you didn’t have the bug issue with trying to get Minecraft updated on the last big update, then you don’t have to do off of wifi.  I got my phone to work, and opened ... the wifi issue we tend to freeze up trying to download on wifi, so the iPhone worked and so now try my ipad, it took me out of being notified i was not invited to play on this server to the not connecting, I still hadn’t did the delete and reinstall, was just hoping the iPhone doing it would change.  I tried again later in the day, still next day after, and when I went in it opened without notification of not connecting and i have been back in since without issue.  If you only play on one device, If it doesn’t correct on its own, I would suggest a delete and reinstall.  They will want you doing that no matter what, so try that.

I tried something someone mentioned prior and said it worked, and I don't know why it worked(s) but it does.  It at least gets you back into Minecraft with the update to boot.  I did first on my iPhone which also would not load the update and was froze on the screen show about in attachments, and it worked, for my iPhone, I turned off my WiFi and used data to download Minecraft with the update, and when it did, I opened it, and it worked when I opened it it had that screen but went through it pretty fast and completed the uploading opening of Minecraft.   So I decided to do the same with my iPad Pro, but it doesn't have data, so I needed to tether it to my phone.  But first, I used it with the WiFi and re-uploaded the game with the update, but I did not open it.  I went out of the store screen ad went to my settings and took my iPad off of connection to the WiFi.  After I did that I connected it to my iPhone with using the Personal Hotspot setting on the phone, this basically Bluetooth the two together, the iPhone 7 plus still used the WiFi and connected my iPad Pro to it via Bluetooth but connecting with the Personal Hotspot.  I was then able to go to the now re-uploaded Minecraft and open it, and it went to the load screen and it did load and go to being able to connect to my realm.  I backed up my worlds to my laptop, so I had not world and the realm always remains and updates so I knew I wasn't going to lose it.  I connected to the realm and was able to play and after a little while it connected me to the other servers and I was able to play multiplayer on one of the servers.  I never lost connection, had a little lag on the server which went away and was able to go in and out of my realm.  

I don't know why this works and hopefully Mojang reads and understand why this works when having it on WiFi does not.

So, good like trying to see if you can update and connect till Mojang fixes us not having to enter through a backdoor.  You don't want to be using data to play, especially if you have limited data.  Just a FYI.  since I was using two devices, one used the WiFi while my iPad Pro which is not a data iPad, had it's WiFi off and using the service of my iPhone which can and needed to be on WiFi, so no using of data to play.  I just wouldn't recommend doing if all you have is the phone and your using then data  unless you data is unlimited then it don't matter, otherwise it will.

Yes, that is my question after all this time is:  What is Mojang doing about it, the workflow doesn't tell us anything and idol wait without some input just would be nice to have someone inform that yes they are indeed working and it's been assigned.  Can't the duplicity's been connected together, so they are working on exactly the same problems for all of us.  I am hoping we will be informed that a bug release for iOS, etc. for this specific issue will be informed to us vs finding out by someone stating a guess what....  

This is just frustrating.

I use to be a BETA tester and I can not imagine that Mojang does not have testers for all of the platforms, so why did they not know this was going to happen, it should have to them... just don't get how this could have occurred when beta testing...?

Yes, frustrated waiting.

Can you provide a link or cant here? Or what u used?

Last night I was going to use a friends android, which is a Galaxy, tablet, don't know which.  I was able to get installed, so it downloaded Minecraft and the update, and when I went to Minecraft after connecting to xbox live, and then opening Minecraft it does the exact same thing as the above attachment is, and says froze on there, so couldn't even do a android.   So, now have I have: 2 iOS iPad Pro, mine and my sister's, and our 2 iPhone 7 plus, and now the android Galaxy that are froze in that screen doing nothing.  So, yes, clearly not a iOS only issue.  

Same, I have been locked out basically by it freezing there, and I don’t think it is running in the background, at least on mine.  I don’t know if anyone else has a realm, but i do, just curious if we have something common and you don’t state what Apple product you play on, since I know it is not all ios users.  Every time i deleted Minecraft and reloaded, it duplicates itself so, there is nothing to bring it back... other than Minecraft.

I have exact same issue on my IPad Pro 2nd generation and my IPhone 7 plus so does my sister with same devices, have exact same screen and it does nothing, i am just stuck there.  I have deleted minecraft and reinstalled, shut down wifi and rebooted, cleared all open apps and shut down both devices, and every time I reinstall that is it, that is all i see.

Plus if you read the top, it says, open, and says resolution, unresolved and fix.... NONE... not hopeful, why do i update should wait until a month after.
