 Description   

My friend has a Samsung phone and I have iPhone. I just bought Minecraft on my phone but for some reason we can’t play together. I suspect it has something to do with the different operation systems. Anyways is there a way we can play together.

try creating/loging in on XBOX LIVE account. (microsoft account)
THIS is the way we can play in cross plataform, between Nintendo Switch, Playstation 4, Playstation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X | S, Android, and IOS. Windows 10 edition is LITERRALY the same as cellphones' version... CTRL + C, CTRL + V.
You also need to enable multiplayer in the world.
You need to add you real-life friend as an friend in XBOX LIVE.
I did it so i could play (or coldplay) with almost all of my subscribers, but i paid damm BRL R$ 99.00

Not a BDS bug, file under MCPE. Also, the entire point of Bedrock edition is to be cross platform. So the different operating systems are not the problem.
