If you're on Xbox and already own the Bedrock Edition, the story is pretty much the same as you would have the beta preview version available.

Downloading the beta preview version on iOS devices is slightly difficult. You will first have to sign into the Minecraft Preview's beta program on TestFlight. However, if the program is full, you won't be able to play the beta and will have to wait for a spot.

If you are in the beta program, you can easily download the latest 1.19.60.25 version. However, you must constantly update the game and stay active since TestFlight automatically kicks inactive users out of the program.

What's new with Minecraft Bedrock beta 1.19.60.26

Hanging signs are gradually improving for being released in the next update (Image via Mojang)

As with every beta release, Mojang has published official patch notes for all the changes that come with this beta version. A major change was made to the hanging signs present under the experimental features.

Placing a hanging sign under an axis-aligned hanging sign with V-shaped chains will now result in a hanging sign with double chains. However, this only applies when the player is in sneak mode.

Apart from that, there are several other bug fixes and technical updates that Mojang is constantly working on to improve the overall gameplay experience.
