Anvil-MC: Minecraft Servers

Anvil-MC (formerly ARM-MC) allows you to host a free Minecraft server on your Android phone or tablet. No PC, no VPS, no monthly bill, no port forwarding.

Create a server in under a minute, get a public address automatically, and share it — friends join from anywhere, on Java or Bedrock. Keep it running 24/7 on hardware you already own. No root required.

⚡ START IN UNDER A MINUTE

- Tap Create Server and pick a game mode, modpack or server software

- Start it: you get a public link automatically, no router settings

- Share the address. Friends join from any Minecraft client, anywhere

🎮 ONE-TAP GAME MODES

Instant templates for SkyBlock, OneBlock, AcidIsland and CaveBlock, plus survival and creative worlds. No config files, no setup.

🚀 RUN ANY SERVER SOFTWARE

- PaperMC & Spigot — high performance with the full plugin ecosystem

- Fabric & NeoForge — modded worlds with your favourite mods

- Vanilla — pure, unmodified Minecraft

- PumpkinMC — a fast Rust-based core for quick, low-RAM sessions

- Custom JAR — upload any compatible Java server software

📦 ONE-TAP MODPACKS FROM MODRINTH

Install a complete modpack straight from Modrinth in the app. Every mod and dependency is downloaded and configured automatically.

🌍 BEDROCK CROSS-PLAY

Enable Bedrock support in one tap. Anvil-MC configures Geyser and Floodgate for you, so Bedrock Edition players can join your Java server.

🛠️ FULL SERVER MANAGEMENT

- No port forwarding: every server gets a free public address via automatic tunneling

- Background hosting: your server keeps running while you play or use other apps

- Live console with real-time logs and command execution

- Player management: kick, ban, whitelist, admins, playtime

- File browser: upload plugins and mods, edit .yml/.json/.properties

- Import and back up worlds from a .zip

- Web dashboard: manage your server from any browser via RCON

- AI crash analyzer: paste a crash, get a fix

- In-app world map and live hardware stats

- Java runtime, balancing speed against heat

💡 PERFECT FOR

- Private SMPs and small survival or creative worlds with friends

- Modded and plugin servers: minigames, economies, custom gameplay

- Plugin and mod testing on a portable sandbox

- Reusing an old phone as a cheap always-on server

- Learning how servers and networking work, for free

🆓 FREE VS PREMIUM

Free forever: unlimited local hosting, every server type, all game modes, mods and plugins, and public sessions on a randomised address.

Premium adds a permanent *.anvil-mc.app subdomain, unlimited public session time, the remote web dashboard, DDoS protection, legacy Java versions and no ads.

📱 DEVICE REQUIREMENTS

- Android 9 or newer, no root

- 2 GB free RAM starts most servers; 4-6 GB for modded or multiplayer

- Internet connection for public hosting (LAN-only works offline)

⚠️ GOOD TO KNOW

- Performance depends on your device's hardware and thermal limits

- Large modpacks or high player counts need a more powerful phone

- Hosting uses more battery, so keep the phone charging

ABOUT SERVER SOFTWARE: Anvil-MC does not bundle or distribute Minecraft server binaries. You provide your own .jar, or select a version from the official PaperMC and Fabric APIs. All trademarks and product names are the property of their respective owners and are used descriptively. When a server starts, the Java runtime retrieves that software and runs it as an independent process inside the Java runtime sandbox; this does not modify or extend Anvil-MC itself. Users are responsible for sourcing binaries from official providers in compliance with the Minecraft EULA. Anvil-MC contains no game assets, executable binaries or proprietary code belonging to Mojang AB or Microsoft.

NOT AN OFFICIAL MINECRAFT PRODUCT. NOT APPROVED BY OR ASSOCIATED WITH MOJANG OR MICROSOFT.
