World Manager for Minecraft

World Manager for Minecraft is a macOS app for inspecting and managing Minecraft Bedrock content libraries. It scans worlds, behavior packs, resource packs, and templates from local folders, and can mirror content from a trusted connected iPhone or iPad for browsing on the Mac.

NOT AN OFFICIAL MINECRAFT PRODUCT. NOT APPROVED BY OR ASSOCIATED WITH MOJANG OR MICROSOFT.

Features

• Browse Minecraft Bedrock libraries from local folders.
• Detect worlds, resource packs, behavior packs, and world templates.
• Inspect package metadata, pack relationships, icons, versions, UUIDs, and basic world facts.
• Export worlds and packs as portable .mcworld, .mcpack, .mctemplate, and .mcaddon packages.
• Preview and thumbnail supported Minecraft package files with Quick Look extensions.
• Mirror Minecraft content from connected iOS or iPadOS devices using Apple's MobileDevice/House Arrest interfaces.

Requirements

• macOS 26.2 or newer, based on the current Xcode project deployment target.
• Xcode with the macOS SDK that supports that deployment target.
• A local copy of Minecraft Bedrock content, or a trusted connected iPhone/iPad with Minecraft installed for connected-device browsing.

Connected-device access uses Apple MobileDevice interfaces that are not a stable public SDK surface. It is useful for local tooling, but should be treated as best-effort and may not be suitable for Mac App Store distribution.

Building

Open World Manager for Minecraft.xcodeproj in Xcode and build the World Manager for Minecraft scheme.

From the command line:

xcodebuild \
  -project "World Manager for Minecraft.xcodeproj" \
  -scheme "World Manager for Minecraft" \
