X-BUILDS

Everything you need to finish the build

X-Builds is built around one idea: you should never have to pause a video to count blocks. Here is everything it does, on the website and in the Android app.

All features

  • Exact block lists

    Every block type with its count, for the whole build and for each step, calculated from the build itself so the list matches what you place.

    Web and app
  • A picture for every step

    Each step is rendered from the build: what is already placed, and the new blocks outlined. Steps hidden inside walls are opened up so you can see them.

    Web and app
  • 3D preview

    Spin, zoom and step through the finished build in your browser before you gather a single block.

    On the web
  • Smart search

    Describe what you want in plain words. X-Builds understands size, style, category and materials, and shows why each build matches.

    Web and app
  • Smart picks for you

    The library puts builds that fit your edition, play style and skill first, and learns from what you open, save and finish.

    In the app
  • Build From My Inventory

    Tell the app what is in your chests and it ranks the builds you can make right now, with exactly what is still missing.

    In the app
  • Progress tracking

    Tick off steps and gathered materials as you go. Progress is saved on your phone after every step, so you can stop mid-build and carry on later.

    In the app
  • Works offline

    Builds you have opened stay on your phone. Their steps, block lists and your progress keep working without a connection; step pictures load when you are online.

    In the app
  • Cinematic Studio

    Film your build assembling itself and save a picture or a clip. Day and Sunset are free; Sunrise, Night, Rain and Fog come with X-Builds Pro.

    Web and app
  • Gentle reminders

    If you allow notifications, the app can nudge you about a build you left unfinished. They are scheduled on your phone; nothing is sent to a server.

    In the app
  • Free builds on the web, no account

    Every free build on this website comes with the full block list and every step. The app works as a guest from the first launch.

    Web and app
  • Made for Java 1.21

    Builds are designed and checked on Java Edition 1.21, and every guide shows the edition and version it was made for. Most use everyday blocks that Bedrock has too.

    Web and app
  • Light and dark

    Both the website and the app come in light and dark themes, and remember your choice.

    Web and app

Smart search, for real

This is what X-Builds understands from "medieval stone castle", and what it finds: your words are matched against our own tables of sizes, styles, categories and blocks, so every result comes with a reason.
