Question

Are there some easier steps in duplicating items?

The easiest I've found is having two people (or phones) on a LAN game, them both opening a chest, putting an item in it, and tapping on it at the same time. It works better if one person taps both.
Question

Will this work in version 1.14.3?

Community Answer

No, it has probably been patched by that version.
Question

Can I delete items in Minecraft PE Windows 10 edition?

Community Answer

Just drop the item into a cauldron filled with lava, a very convenient trash can.
Question

Will this work for iOS?

Community Answer

It will work for any types of phones. Unfortunately though, the glitch has now been fixed.

Warnings

This only works in the 0.8.1 version and below, as it was fixed in the 0.9.0 version.

Thanks!

There is the occasional time where this does not work, and you may lose the items you used.
