Realme: Show or Hide Camera Grid Lines

If the camera viewfinder on your Realme phone shows no horizon guide, framing landscapes or straight architecture shots gets harder. Photo and video mode each have their own grid toggle, so one can stay on while the other stays off. Checking the right setting fixes this in seconds.

Show or Hide Camera Grid Lines auf Realme

The grid overlay in the Realme camera app helps you line up horizons, buildings, or symmetrical subjects before you shoot. It sits on top of the live preview and disappears from the final photo or video, so it only affects framing while you compose the shot.

Realme UI keeps the grid setting split between photo mode and video mode. Turning it on for photos does not automatically enable it for video, and the other way around. If you only see the grid in one mode, that is expected behaviour, not a bug.

To change it, open CameraSettingsComposition. Choose Photo or Video, then switch Grid on or off for that mode.

If the grid still does not appear after enabling it, check that you are testing in the same mode you configured. Switching between photo and video inside the camera app can silently apply a different grid state.

This setting only affects the on-screen overlay. It has no effect on aspect ratio, resolution, or watermarks, so leave it disabled if you only need a clean preview for quick shots.

Frequently asked questions

Realme UI treats Photo and Video as separate settings under Composition. Enabling the grid for one mode does not carry over to the other, so check both toggles under CameraSettingsComposition.
