This issue appears to be a regression: the game previously worked on Waydroid and now consistently hangs on the splash screen after recent updates.

I understand that Waydroid may be an unsupported environment, and that’s fine — but what’s missing here is clarity.

Could Mojang please confirm whether this behavior is intentional (i.e., Waydroid / containerized Android environments are now blocked) or an unintended bug?

If it’s intentional, marking the issue as “won’t fix” with a brief explanation would at least allow affected users to make informed purchasing decisions.

If it’s unintentional, some acknowledgement that the regression is known and being investigated would go a long way.

Right now, the lack of any response leaves legitimate, paying users unable to tell whether they are encountering a bug or a policy change.

This issue appears to be the same regression described in MCPE-232476, but I’m commenting here as well due to the lack of response on the original report.

this technically duplicates MCPE-232476 but there has been no response, or rather, an appropriate and timely response from Mojang regarding this critical bug that is disallowing perfectly legitimately players from playing the game they own.

This is not a technical issue, is a bug as Waydroid logs indicate that the problem is with some bundle apks not being correct, so the app doesn’t install properly, is due to the config apks, not Waydroid processing of such.

Can confirm with a similar setup on Waydroid

Can we have the report updated to include 1.21.123?

I’d imagine this is already known, especially since is in the changelog, but I wanna leave it just in case
still affected 1.21.123 using the method I described earlier.

My guess is that when switching display modes using F11, depending on the locking method Mojang is using, the game is not reevaluating the bounding box when using F11 to change the display mode

Me when I forget to attach the video

This is what I mean, my secondary monitor is on the right so I’m showing the cursor doesn’t move right anymore by moving right constantly and clicking

If you play continuously in a single screen mode (fullscreen or windowed) is fixed, however, if you’re in fullscreen, pause the game, resume, and change to windowed using F11, the cursor can now escape at the bottom and interact with the taskbar
