The menu, also referred to as the main menu or the world menu is the menu that allows players to join different worlds, including servers. If playing in a world, the menu can always be returned to by opening the pause menu and selecting "Exit to Menu". The menu received its most drastic redesigns in version 1.3 and version 1.5.1, with the introduction of servers and cloud servers respectively.
Currently, the menu lists all worlds played on, both single player and servers, in a sliding list with more recently accessed worlds to the right of others. The two rightmost options allow players to join a world and create a world.
Single-player worlds have two buttons when viewed, Options and Play. Play loads the world, while Options allows the world to be deleted, renamed, or to host that world using Game Center or Local Network on iOS devices.
Multiplayer worlds have two buttons when viewed, Options and Join. Join joins the world, while Options allows players to forget the world, removing it from the menu, change their avatar picture, and invite others to the world, as well as, if they are the owner of the server, access the owner portal.
