How to report Minecraft bugs and glitches

Since Minecraft is a vast and old sandbox title constantly updated by Mojang, it is bound to have a lot of bugs. There are hundreds of items, a near-endless map, countless mobs, and various ways to interact with the world. Hence, not all aspects of the game can be perfect. Fortunately, Mojang is quite snappy about fixing bugs by constantly tracking them and updating the game.

For someone new to the game, bug reporting might be slightly tedious, especially regarding games developed by Mojang. Hence, here is a simple step-by-step process to report a glitch or bug for any Minecraft edition.

Steps to report Minecraft bugs and glitches to Mojang

1) Open the Mojang bug tracker website

First, you need to understand that Mojang has its very own bug-tracking website, which manages all kinds of bug and glitch reports from all the games they develop. Hence, you must head to the bug tracker website to report any bugs.

On both Java and Bedrock Edition, the easiest way to head directly to the website is to select the 'report bugs' button in the settings, which will now take you to the main website.

2) Create an account on the bug-tracking website

After reaching the website, you must create a brand new account to start reporting bugs and glitches. This will be a separate account not connected to a Mojang game or a Microsoft account. The website will need an email confirmation to create the account.

If you plan to submit a bug report, use the search feature to ensure that someone else has not already submitted the same issue. Most of the problems are common among several players. Hence, there can already be a bug report made by someone else. This helps the bug tracker website be clutter-free, with no repeat reports about the same issue.

After you make an account, a 'create' button will appear in the top panel. This is to produce a new bug report where you can select the game developed by Mojang, give a summary of the bug, add the version in which the bug has been detected, and even add additional pictures to support the information further.

Once the bug report is complete, you can submit it and regularly check whether it has been addressed. Since there are loads of bugs on the website, your account might take some time to resolve in future updates.
