Question

How do I see what my coordinates are without mods in Minecraft PE?

Community Answer

As of Minecraft PE 16.0, commands are available. You can find current coordinates with the teleport command (/tp). Type "/tp ~ ~ ~"; it will not teleport you anywhere actually, because you didn't specify where, but the command's output will say "teleported to location X," which will show your coordinates.

Question

Is there another way to find my coordinates other than using the function keys?

Community Answer

You could download the toolbox app for Minecraft. This way, you'll have the coordinates displayed on your screen while you're playing.

Question

What if my screen doesn't show x y or z?

Community Answer

When you press the debug key it will show your x y and z coordinates. However, if you have a certain mod installed, the mod may affect your ability to view the x y and z coordinates. I would get some info on the mod/mods that affect your ability to view your coordinates.

Hopefully in the new update. But you can't now, because they haven't added more codes.

Question

What's the best option if F3 doesn't work on my computer?

Community Answer

You can try remapping the debug button (default F3) in the options menu under Controls. Remap it to something that isn't already mapped, but not too inconvenient to hunt for while playing.

Question

How do I enable coordinates on a Windows 10 Lenovo computer?

Community Answer

You can't because there is the problem that the Lenovo F3 key allows you to make the volume go up, not showing coordinates. It only works on a normal keyboard.

Is there another way to find my coordinates if it's not showing on the map while playing on the Nintendo Switch?

When you are making a world, there’s an option to show players’ coordinates. Just turn it on. It’ll appear on the top left side of your screen. You can also go back and edit the settings on your world from the select a world page
