Frequently asked questions

How do I turn on the animations for What Are They Up To Mod?
The animations are on by default once the mod is installed on both the client and the server, so you don't need to enable anything to see typing, inventory, or idle animations. If you're not seeing them, make sure the mod is present on the server side too, since the activity data has to be sent to your client.
Does What Are They Up To Mod work on Bedrock or Minecraft pe?
No, this mod is built for Java Edition and relies on server-side hooks that Bedrock and Pocket Edition don't support. There is no Bedrock or PE version of this mod.
Why can't I see other players typing in chat?
Typing animations only show when the mod is installed on the server, because the server has to broadcast that a player is typing. If you're on a server without the mod, or the other player is on a vanilla client, no typing animation will appear.
Can I see what's inside another player's inventory with this mod?
No, the mod only shows that a player is using a menu, not the contents of it. You'll see their hand move on a virtual screen, but the items themselves stay private.
