Server address sign-in on app problems, “incorrect formatting”

[gritty anvil]

I’m trying to sign into the server from my Minecraft app on my iPad, and when i type in the server it says its incorrectly formatted even though i had it formatted the same way when signing in on the computer. Does anyone know if its different sign in, or have an idea on the problem im having? Thank you! ❤️

if ur on bedrock on ipad and java on pc then java will have it xx.xxx.xxx.xx:xxxx but bedrock it has to be the xx.xxx.xxx.xx bit (before the colon) as ip and xxxx (after the colon) as the port
