== Unique Features ==
; '''Blocks'''
* Water color can be changed in [[cauldron]]s by adding [[dye]]s. This dyed water can be used to dye items such as [[leather armor]].
* [[Cauldron]]s can store potions, and will make an explosion sound (not a real explosion) if potions are mixed, making the potions disappear. Potions in cauldrons can be used to make a tipped arrow.
Line 21 ⟶ 22:
* [[Update game block]], which appears when a world with blocks added in a newer version is loaded in an older version.
 
; '''Items'''
* [[Leather armor]] can be dyed in [[cauldron]]s, instead of in the [[crafting grid]].
* Leather [[horse armor]] can be dyed using a cauldron, and can be crafted using 7 [[leather]] in the shape of an "H".
 
; '''World generation'''
* Early versions used terrain and biome generation akin to that of [[Java Edition Beta]]. (more specifically, [[Java Edition Alpha v1.2.0|Alpha v1.2.0]] to [[Java Edition Beta 1.7.3|Beta 1.7.3]])
** [[Pocket Edition v0.9.0 alpha|Alpha v0.9.0]] and subsequent versions brought both more in line with [[Java Edition 1.7.2]] and beyond.
Line 37 ⟶ 38:
* [[Superflat|Flat]] world type
 
; '''Gameplay'''
* The HUD and other elements are adapted to mobile standards of gameplay. Interactions are made via touchscreen (both the iOS and Android versions of ''[[Pocket Edition]]'' have the same gameplay<ref>{{tweet|kappische|142677729135968256}}</ref>).
** [[Crafting]] uses the [[Crafting/Before Pocket Edition v0.9.0 alpha|MATTIS]] system, and items are disposed of by long-tapping their icon on the toolbar.
** For better visibility, blocks being aimed at are highlighted rather than outlined.
** Curiously, these versions of Pocket Edition have the fewest amount of inventory slots for use, that being three.
Line 50 ⟶ 51:
** Through Xbox Live.
 
; '''General'''
* [[Add-on]]s, used to change the way things in the game look and behave.
