Clash of Clans New UI Guide: Where Are the Buttons?

The Clash of Clans new UI changes the village screen from the ground up. In the redesign Supercell announced on October 8, Battle sits bottom left and Build sits bottom right. The Battle Log, army editing and every upgrade now live inside those two buttons.

Supercell says the goal was not fewer buttons but the right buttons in the right place. Almost nothing was removed; things just moved. Below we turn the official "where did my buttons go" map into a quick reference.

Why did the Clash of Clans new UI arrive?

The old interface was built for a much smaller game. Hero Equipment, Pets, Magic Items and the Clan Capital were bolted on over the years. The result was clutter, with everyday tasks buried inside buildings. Supercell treats the new design as a foundation for future features, not a finished product.

What is inside the Battle button?

The Battle button is now the hub for everything combat. The Battle Log, Edit Army and the battle menu all live here. With training times gone and an army review screen before every battle, daily trips to the Army Training menu are no longer needed.

• When Revenge is available, the Battle button shows a flaming sword.
• When a live replay is running, it shows an eye icon.
• Battle Boost and Magic Potion states also show on this button.

What is inside the Build menu?

The Build button is the single home for everything you upgrade and edit on your base. It has four tabs:

• Building and Heroes: every building and Hero upgrade, plus new buildings.
• Army Upgrades: everything that used to mean tapping the Laboratory.
• Hero Equipment: everything that used to mean tapping the Blacksmith.
• Hero Pets: everything that used to mean tapping the Pet House.

Small details worth knowing

• Tapping an upgrade card pans the camera to that building and opens the upgrade confirmation.
• Tapping a locked item shows the building that gates it.
• By default, upgrades in progress sort to the top, shortest timer first.
• Filters change per tab, and you can sort by cost in either direction.
• Recommendations were not removed; they sit in a "Recommended" section inside Build.

Builder Base and Clan Capital

Builder Base gets the same improvements, but its Build menu has two tabs instead of four. Clan Capital only gets a visual pass to match the new button style. Supercell plans a proper Capital rework in a future update.

How did Supercell respond to player feedback?

On October 15 Supercell published a follow-up post. The XP bar was not removed; it moved to your Profile. Scaling options and filters that reset every session are being looked at. The extra taps for Clan Castle requests, account switching, the Layout Editor and Revenge are being reviewed one by one. Supercell also confirmed a bug that showed a false "FREE" alert on the Shop, which was fixed.

Frequently asked questions

Can you switch back to the old Clash of Clans interface?

No. Supercell says there is no way back to the old interface. It wants to add interface customization but cannot promise a date.

Where are the Battle Log and Revenge in the new UI?

The Battle Log is inside the Battle button. When Revenge is available the Battle button shows a flaming sword, and during a live replay it shows an eye icon.

Where did new buildings and Laboratory upgrades go?

New buildings are in the Build menu under Building and Heroes. Laboratory upgrades are under Army Upgrades, Blacksmith upgrades under Hero Equipment and Pet House upgrades under Hero Pets.
