• For PS3 and PS4, press the L2 button on the PS controller.
• For Wii U, press the ZL button on the gamepad.
• For Nintendo Switch, press the ZL button on the controller.
• For Windows 10 Edition, right click on the block.
• For Education Edition, right click on the block.

2. Use the Anvil

To use the anvil, you need to stand in front of it.

The game control to use the anvil depends on the version of Minecraft:

• For Java Edition (PC/Mac), right click on the anvil.

3. Repair the Elytra

To repair the elytra, you need the damaged elytra and phantom membrane to repair it. In this example, we have placed the damaged elytra in the first slot and a phantom membrane in the second slot.

In the third slot, you will see the repaired elytra. It will cost 1 experience level to repair the elytra.

TIP: If your elytra is not fully repaired after the first phantom membrane, repeat the repair process again.

4. Move the Repaired Elytra to Inventory

Now, move the repaired elytra from the third slot to your inventory hotbar.
