Betterhud+
by Flamingoo
Betterhud+ replaces the default Minecraft HUD with a cleaner, minimalist set of on-screen elements for Fabric 1.20.1.
What it does
Betterhud+ is a HUD mod that swaps the default interface elements for sleek alternatives while keeping the overall look of vanilla Minecraft. Its widgets are customizable, so a player can choose which information stays on screen. The display can show armor durability, FPS and coordinates, and each widget can be turned on or off.
The mod is intended for players who want more legible status information without a cluttered screen, including during multiplayer fights where a clear HUD matters. Rendering is described as optimized so the mod does not reduce frame rate. Betterhud+ is client-side only, so only the player needs to install it; servers run without it. The code is released under the MIT License, and the source is public. Files target Fabric and Minecraft 1.20.1, with version 1.0.0 published on 2026-05-16.
