Why do You Need to Split Items?

The maximum number of the same blocks you can collect in the game is 64. But there are various in-game situations when you do not need to use the entire stack. For example, once you want to craft items or drop a small part of your resources to your teammate, the only option is to split items. It enables you to get the required amount of the specific resource in a few seconds.

How to Separate Items in Minecraft PE

Once you know why splitting items is so important, it is time to discover how to do it. First, you should open the inventory and place the resource you want to divide here. After that, press and hold on to this item until the special green bar appears on the screen. This bar estimates how many resources you want to split. Once it is filled at the half, you will get ½ of the resource after splitting.

When the green ball is fulfilled, release the hold and tap on an empty space in your inventory. Also, keep in mind that it might be pretty hard to reach the desired amount of the resource while splitting it. So, you might require even a few tries to split items in Minecraft PE correctly.

In conclusion, even though splitting items is one of the most problematic quests for beginners in Minecraft PE, nothing is challenging about doing it. You only need to hold your finger on the required item and release it when the green bar is filled enough.
