How to Apply and Share HUD Codes in Free Fire

Open the HUD Recommendation System

Free Fire groups its recommended control layouts in Settings > HUD. Garena introduced this recommendation system to let players browse and apply presets shared by professional players. A layout is a starting point for your controls; the documentation does not say that one preset guarantees better aim or suits every screen. [1]

Steps

1. Open Settings and select HUD. Browse the HUD Recommendation System to find the preset you want to use. [1]

Apply a code and decide whether to sync sensitivity

The share-code tool moved to the bottom-left corner of the recommendation page in OB52. Codes and professional-player presets can include both a control layout and sensitivity settings, so distinguish the layout you want from the sensitivity you intend to keep. [1]

Steps

1. Use the share-code tool at the bottom-left of that page when applying the code you have chosen. This is the location Garena documents for the revised HUD interface. [1]
2. When applying the code, choose whether to sync its linked sensitivity. Leave that synchronization unselected if your intention is to use the layout while keeping your existing sensitivity; select it if you also want the settings bundled with the code. [1]

Share your layout through the supported channels

OB53 expands sharing beyond a plain code: Garena lists social media, in-game friends, a link and a QR code. These are ways to share the HUD configuration, not ways to transfer your account or game progress. The patch documentation does not require giving another player an account password. [2]

Steps

1. Choose the HUD sharing option appropriate for the recipient: an in-game friend, a link, a QR code or the documented social sharing route. Keep the recipient’s sensitivity choice separate when they apply the shared configuration. [2] [1]

Use Smart Adjust as an additional layout aid

Garena’s Smart Adjust feature suggests changes based on screen-tap data and HUD usage patterns. It complements choosing a shared layout; the announcement does not describe it as a guaranteed competitive advantage or a universal sensitivity calculator. Use its suggestions when deciding how the imported controls fit your own play. [2]
