Quick Fixes to Reduce Minecraft Lag
One of the easiest ways to reduce lag in Minecraft is by adjusting the game’s video settings. Lowering options like render distance, graphics, and smooth lighting can significantly reduce lag. Also, make sure your game is running the latest version.
Another tip is to close other programs that might be running on your computer, phone, or console. Minecraft needs a lot of juice, and having other apps open can slow it down.
