How to Use Mobile F1, F8, and GreenScreen for Clean Screenshots

Taking clean screenshots or recording content on mobile devices usually requires digging through vanilla video settings to hide the touch controls and hand model. This client streamlines the process with dedicated on-screen shortcut buttons and a built-in studio tool.

Using the F1 and F8 Mobile Buttons

When playing on a touch device, look at the top of your screen for the added F1 and F8 Buttons for Mobile:

1. Hiding the Interface (F1): Tap the on-screen F1 button to instantly hide your hotbar, health bars, touch controls, and any active overlays like the Armor or Status HUD. This gives you an unobstructed view of your build or landscape. Tap it again to bring your Clean UI back.

2. Toggling Camera Modes (F8): Tap the F8 button to quickly adjust your camera behavior or perspective on the fly without opening the pause menu.

Capturing GreenScreen Footage

If you want to isolate your character skin, an item, or a small build for a video thumbnail, you can use the built-in GreenScreen feature:

1. Open the Mod Menu or Better Settings Section and activate the GreenScreen option.

2. Position your character and use the F8 button to adjust your camera angle.

3. Tap the F1 button to clear all UI elements from the frame.

4. Take your screenshot using your device's capture buttons, then disable the GreenScreen in the menu to return to normal gameplay.
