/gamerule keepinventory true isn't working on my world

Typed it with cheats on and got the confirmation, but I still dropped everything when I died. Playing on Bedrock with friends. Does it have to be set by the host?
gamerule keepinventory true

if you turn on cheats on bedrock it disables achievements for that world, permanently. so if you care about those, keepinventory isn't free there.

On Java it's case sensitive, so it has to be /gamerule keepInventory true with the capital I, and the world needs cheats on (Open to LAN lets you turn them on for that session). On Bedrock you can just flip Keep Inventory in the world settings.
