How to Download Bedrock Mods from CurseForge

Step 1 — Go to CurseForge Bedrock Section

Visit curseforge.com/minecraft-bedrock or open the CurseForge desktop app. Under the Minecraft section, switch the filter from Java Edition to Bedrock Edition. You’ll see add-ons, texture packs, behavior packs, and skins.

Browse Bedrock Add-ons

Step 2 — Download the .mcpack or .mcaddon File

Click the mod/add-on you want, then click Download. The file will download as a .mcpack (single pack) or .mcaddon (bundled behavior + resource pack).

Step 3 — Install on Windows 10/11

Double-click the downloaded .mcpack or .mcaddon file. Minecraft Bedrock should launch automatically and import the add-on. Once imported, go to Settings → Global Resources (for resource packs) or Create World → Behavior Packs / Resource Packs to activate it.

Step 4 — Install on Mobile (Android / iOS)

Android: Download the file, then tap it in your file manager. It should open with Minecraft automatically. If not, use Open With → Minecraft.

iOS: Tap the downloaded file in Safari or Files, then tap Share → Copy to Minecraft.

Common CurseForge Bedrock Install Errors

⚠️ Xbox / Console Note: You cannot sideload CurseForge mods directly on Xbox, PlayStation, or Nintendo Switch. Bedrock add-ons on consoles must come from the official Minecraft Marketplace.
