How to set a custom DPI on BlueStacks 5

How will this help?

You can select a custom DPI to increase or decrease the pixel density of your gameplay screen on BlueStacks 5.

By selecting a higher DPI on BlueStacks 5, you will experience a much smoother shooting experience in games like Free Fire since it allows you to aim precisely at your enemies due to a greater number of pixels on your gameplay screen.

NOTE: Some applications or parts of the interface on BlueStacks 5 can appear zoomed in, when a higher DPI is selected. 


How can I set a custom DPI?

1. Launch BlueStacks 5 and click on the gear icon in the Side Toolbar.
