Set up on consoleConsole + phone/PC together.

  1. Buy Minecraft in your console store
    Switch $27 · Xbox $19 · PS $18. Switch needs Nintendo Switch Online.
  2. Install the Aleph Kids app on your phone or PC
    This second device handles voice chat with Annie.
  3. Start your first class (the tutorial) — follow the screens
    In the Aleph Kids app, tap Start class — it checks your voice connection with Annie, then connects you to Minecraft. The connect screen shows an address like xxxx.play.alephlab.ai. Consoles cannot add a server directly, so you change the DNS and connect through BedrockConnect — follow the screens below. (The screens below are for Nintendo Switch; Xbox and PS use the same method, just with a slightly different Settings/DNS location.)
    1) Switch Settings → Internet → select 'Internet Settings'.
    2) Under 'Registered Networks', select the WiFi you are using (Luciano1028 is just an example).
    3) On the selected WiFi, tap 'Change Settings'.
    4) Change 'DNS Settings' from Automatic to 'Manual'.
    5) Enter 104.238.130.180 as the Primary DNS.
    6) Enter 008.008.008.008 as the Secondary DNS, then Save (for BedrockConnect).
    7) Launch Minecraft and open the top 'Servers' (Featured Servers) tab — do NOT tap 'Create New World'.
    8) On the 'Servers' tab, tap ANY featured server in the list — it does NOT have to be Mineville. ⚠️ You are not actually playing it; this is just an intermediate step to reach BedrockConnect.
    9) After a moment the BedrockConnect screen appears — choose 'Connect to a Server'.
    10) Enter the xxxx.play.alephlab.ai address (shown when class starts) into Server Address, keep Server Port 19132, and turn ON 'Add to server list' to save it (no retyping next time) → connect!
    Once connected, be sure to meet Annie in the game and have a conversation! In the tutorial, after a short chat, come back to the Aleph Kids app to try the different modes. (Watch the video: Nintendo Switch setup ↗)
  4. Join another class (e.g. Survival in the Wild)
    Unlike the first class, other classes start with a quiz! After the quiz, when you re-enter the game you do not need to add the server again. In the Minecraft server list, scroll to the bottom-left to find the aleph server you added earlier — just select it to jump right in 😊
Add the address only once. Duplicates cause U-000. Remove extra copies from the server list.
