What it is
BedrockMap turns Minecraft Bedrock and Java world files into interactive web maps. It accepts Bedrock.mcworld and Java Edition.zip files up to 20GB, then maps the Overworld, Nether, and End for switching between dimensions. The viewer supports panning, zooming, touch gestures, coordinates, and customization of block colors, render size, zoom scale, grid display, thumbnails, and marker styles. Premium Timelines preserve earlier renders as versions to revisit and compare. Premium Auto-Sync can retrieve server backups over SFTP, FTP, or FTPS, or receive API Push uploads from a server script. Premium addons or plugins can add live player tracking and marker creation for Bedrock and Java servers. The free plan allows one world upload and two renders per day, with a limited render area and public sharing links. Premium is listed at $4 a month; the pricing note also says paid plans start at $5/mo. Private maps are restricted to the owner and authorized users, and uploaded world data is not shared with third parties. BedrockMap says it is not an official Minecraft product or associated with Mojang.

BedrockMap in depth
Read the full write-up
BedrockMap turns Minecraft Bedrock and Java world files into interactive web maps, making it a good fit for players who want to explore or share a world beyond the game. Its free tier is useful for occasional renders; Premium is the practical choice for larger worlds, private maps, and server features.
Overview
Upload a Bedrock .mcworld file or Java Edition .zip world, up to 20GB, and BedrockMap renders the Overworld, Nether, and End as switchable dimensions. The 2D viewer supports panning, zooming, touch gestures, coordinates, and dimension switching. Block colors, render size, zoom scale, grid display, thumbnails, and marker styles can all be customized.
Free maps can be shared through public links; Premium maps can be private to the owner and authorized users. BedrockMap says uploaded world data is not shared with third parties. It is not an official Minecraft product and is not approved by or associated with Mojang.
Key features
Rendering and customization
Dimension switching and adjustable presentation make the map useful for both browsing a world and showing others a chosen area. Free users get standard quality without shadows, while Premium adds HD rendering with shadows and a much larger render area. That distinction matters if map detail or coverage is central to the result, rather than an occasional overview.
Versions and server features
Premium Timelines preserve past renders as separate versions, so users can revisit and compare changes. Auto-Sync can retrieve server backups over SFTP, FTP, or FTPS, or accept API Push uploads from a server script. Its credential protections include AES-256-GCM encryption for SFTP/FTP passwords; API Push keys remain on the user's server while BedrockMap stores a hash. Setup tokens expire after 15 minutes and can be used once.
Premium addons and plugins support live player tracking and marker creation for Bedrock and Java servers; Java guides cover Paper, Spigot, and Fabric. The Bedrock addon requires a Bedrock Dedicated Server and does not work with Realms or single-player worlds, so it is not a fit for those setups.
Pricing
BedrockMap is freemium, with a free plan and a 7-day trial. The pricing note says paid plans start at $5/mo, while Premium is also shown at $4 a month, billed $4/month, with $5/month crossed out and Save 20%. Check the distinct displayed Premium price and pricing note before choosing. Premium is billed monthly, can be canceled anytime, and access continues through the current billing period.

Premium raises those caps but still limits renders to 20 per day. It is the meaningful upgrade for server use and private maps, not merely a way to remove branding.
Platforms
BedrockMap supports Android, iOS, Linux, web, and Windows. The map viewer's browser-based format suits sharing across devices; server addons have their own Bedrock Dedicated Server requirement.
Who it's for
Choose BedrockMap if you want a web-viewable map from either Bedrock or Java world files, need all three dimensions, or value customizable presentation. Premium is better suited to larger worlds, recurring renders, private maps, saved render versions, and supported Java or Bedrock server tracking. If you use Realms or a single-player Bedrock world, the Bedrock Premium addon will not serve that purpose.
Pros and cons
Pros: Supports both Bedrock and Java uploads up to 20GB and maps all three dimensions, giving mixed-edition users one rendering workflow.
Pros: Premium combines private maps, versioned renders, Auto-Sync, and live server features for ongoing map maintenance.
Pros: The free tier allows a useful trial of the workflow, including two daily renders and public sharing.
Cons: Free is constrained to one upload, a 1,500x1,500-block area, three zoom levels, and standard quality without shadows.
Cons: Bedrock live tracking excludes Realms and single-player worlds because it requires a Bedrock Dedicated Server.
Cons: The Premium price presentation differs between the $4/month billed price and the $5/month pricing note, so buyers should confirm the amount before subscribing.
Alternatives
Minecraft World Map Viewers is the broader category for comparing options. Choose Bedrock Viz if a free Bedrock Edition world tool and Linux, macOS, web, or Windows support suit you better. The Explorer's Friend is a free, MIT-licensed server-side map mod or plugin for those who prefer that model.
Mapcrafter is a free option for users comfortable with Anvil world format and Minecraft 1.6 resource packs. uNmINeD is free for personal use, making it an alternative for personal projects. BlueMap suits Java Edition worlds; server plugin or mod use requires Java 25+, while standalone CLI documentation lists Java 21+.
mcview is a free GPLv3 alternative for iOS, macOS, or Windows. Worldlens is another free option with API, Linux, self-hosted, web, and Windows platforms. Pl3xMap is a free, MIT-licensed option downloadable from Modrinth for users who want that route.
Verdict
BedrockMap is the strongest fit for players and server operators who want customizable web maps from Bedrock or Java worlds, with Premium adding private access, larger renders, saved versions, and server updates. Its free tier is viable for modest public maps, but the small area and daily cap make it a limited long-term choice; look elsewhere if you need a Bedrock addon for Realms or single-player worlds.
Verdict
BedrockMap combines world rendering with map customization and optional server features. Check the distinct listed Premium price and pricing note, and the Bedrock addon requirements, before choosing a plan.
