If you’re looking to join a server in Minehut, the process is pretty straightforward. In this guide, we’ll walk you through the two main ways to connect, plus introduce you to Minefort — a faster, free alternative that offers a smoother server hosting experience.
🔹 Method 1: Add the Server to Your Minecraft Client
- Activate your server from the Minehut dashboard.
- Launch Minecraft and click on Multiplayer.
- Click Add Server.
- Enter your server name and this address:
yourservername.minehut.gg - Hit Done — the server is now saved in your list!
You can join any time without needing to re-enter the address.
🔹 Method 2: Join Through the Minehut Lobby
- Open Minecraft and select Multiplayer.
- Click on Direct Connection.
- Enter this lobby address:
mc.minehut.com - Once connected, type:
/join yourservername
💡 You can also add the Minehut lobby to your server list using the same IP above.
🌐 Crossplay: Join from Bedrock Edition
Minehut allows Bedrock Edition players to connect:
- Connect:
bedrock.minehut.com - Port:
19132 - Devices Supported: iOS, Android, Windows 10
Note: Bedrock support is in beta, and some features may not work perfectly. You’ll recognize Bedrock players by a period (.) before their username.
You must connect via the lobby — direct Bedrock IPs don’t work for player servers (yet).
