Pocket Edition includes Survival and Creative modes, multiplayer over a local Wi-Fi network, and randomly generated worlds. You can craft, create and breed anywhere in the world so long as you have hands spare and battery to burn.

The objective of the game remains the same as its original PC and Console Edition counterparts, where players can build virtual realities in a sandbox-like environment. However, Pocket Edition lacks certain Survival elements present in other versions of the game, such as taming, redstone circuits and hunger. The multiplayer mode is cross-platform compatible between Android and iOS.[8]
The Pocket Edition is behind in features compared to PC Edition and Console Editions.
The HUD and other elements are adapted to mobile standards of gameplay. Interactions are made via touchscreen and, on Android operating systems, soft keys (both the iOS and Android versions of Pocket Edition have the same gameplay, though[9]). To comply with the disadvantages of touchscreen gameplay, several features were revised. For instance, the crafting system uses the MATTIS system and items are disposed by long-tapping their icon on the hotbar. The game was released with graphics akin to that of Minecraft Alpha, but as of the 0.8.0 update, graphics have become equivalent, and arguably better, than the PC version with light tinting and shading affected by the Sun's position. Differences from the PC edition include:
Worlds are finite (256 by 256 blocks) as in Classic version, but there isn't infinite water at world corners, due to being able to build off of a finite world when turned infinite. Because of this, an interesting new game mechanic called "animal spawn control" can be used. This includes removing or covering all dirt blocks on the surface of the world (and therefore the grass blocks) except in a small area to control where and how often animals spawn. This might be changed when worlds become expanded and optionally infinite in 0.9.0 Alpha.
The terrain generation is similar to that of Alpha's. It lacks many biomes and generated structures. More biomes and PC-like terrain are planned for 0.9.0 Alpha.
The farthest Render distance is higher than in PC.
Each mob has some sort of difference from their PC counter parts. See the mobs section below.
Multiplayer allows for 3 ways of player connection:
Through a LAN, allowing for 10 players to be on a single server
Through Minecraft Realms (as of version 0.7.1)
Through a user-created external servers (as of version 0.7.4)
[edit]Diversity
Pocket Edition developers have tried to make the game diverse from PC, with the following features;
Crafting uses the MATTIS system.
The Nether is not present, but it is replaced by the Nether Reactor. When the Reactor is placed in a certain way with gold and cobblestone, it will trigger a giant "netherrack fortress", which takes up a lot of space, when the core is activated. Zombie Pigmen spawn and are hostile towards the player. Certain items randomly spawn scattered in the room.
Poppies are not present, but are replaced by Cyan Flowers, alias Blue Roses.[10] However, in the hotbar, it is named "Rose". Also, red dye is obtained by smelting red mushrooms or crafting from beetroots. This flower will be replaced by the poppy in 0.9.0.
Beetroots, beetroot seeds and beetroot soup are exclusive to Pocket Edition. Beetroot can be crafted into rose red and heals 1 health point, however making it into soup recovers much more. It has a 1 out of 14 chance to pop out of grass blocks while harvesting.
The Stonecutter is present, which can craft all the types of stone, bricks, and quartz, freeing room for crafting table slots.
Shadows on entities move depending on the position of the sun.
Glowing obsidian is present, which can only be generated in the Nether Reactor and cannot be obtained in the inventory. It is red and emits dim light.
Invisible bedrock can be found at the edges of the world, which makes worlds finite. It can, however, be walked on, due to the world height limit. However, blocks cannot be placed on it, due to being at the height limit. Any mobs there are invisible and invulnerable to damage.
Zombie Pigmen are naturally hostile.
Sheeps' color around its face and patches when sheared correspond its wool color.
Sugar Cane can be grown with Bone Meal.
Cold-en Oak Trees are present, which are glitches and extremely rarely generated.
