October Major UI Update

Clash of Clans New UI: Where Every Button Moved

The October 2026 UI update puts Battle on the left, Build on the right, and moves your upgrades, army tools, events and account controls into clearer homes.

Fast answer

Nothing important disappeared. Battle now holds your attack tools; Build now holds every Home Village upgrade. Learn those two buttons first.

Getting used to the new UI

  • Open Build once and check every tab so the new locations stick.
  • Open Battle, then Battle Log, so Revenge and Live Replay indicators make sense.
  • Hero Equipment can now be filtered by King, Queen, Warden, Royal Champion, Minion Prince, or Dragon Duke.
  • Collapse the Event Tray if you want a quieter village screen.
