In Free Fire or Free Fire Max, sensitivity settings are crucial for optimising gameplay and improving aiming precision. These settings determine how responsive the controls are to a player's touch, influencing the ease of movement, aiming and shooting. Sensitivity settings play an important role while moving around during the gameplay, red dot aim, scope adjustments, and sniper scopes making them essential for tailoring the gaming experience to individual preferences. By fine-tuning sensitivity, players can enhance their reaction times and improve their ability to land headshots in both close-range and long-range combat.

Customising sensitivity settings provide flexibility for players using different devices. These adjustments are especially beneficial for players who focus on competitive gameplay or specific strategies like drag shots and precise aiming.
