*'''Click Between Steps:''' Toggles substeps on, allowing you to click in between the default normal steps. This may affect performance.

*'''Hide Attempts:''' Hides the attempt counter when playing levels.
*'''Flip pause button:''' Repositions the pause button from the upper right side to the upper left side of the screen.

*'''Switch Wave Trail Color:''' The wave trail colour can be toggled between Player Colour 1 or 2. When unchecked, it will use the player's secondary colour.

*'''Disable High Object Alert:''' Removes the alert shown when starting levels with a high object count.
*'''Increase Maximum Levels:''' Increases maximum locally saved levels from 10 to 100. This refers to level data, not statistics. Enabling this can make your save file considerably larger, so keeping the option off is recommended for quicker saving.
*'''Save Gauntlets:''' Saves gauntlet levels locally so they do not have to be redownloaded. Increases save time but is helpful if you have a poor connection.
*'''Enable Low Detail:''' Enables low detail mode on levels that support it automatically.
*'''Enable Extra LDM:''' Removes glow and enter effects while in low detail mode. Levels without LDM show LDM lite.
*'''Disable Level Saving:''' Saves level statistics as usual, but levels need to be redownloaded every time you restart the game. Makes saving and loading faster.

''Audio Settings''
*'''Change Custom Songs Location:''' Saves custom songs in a diffrent directory. May fix custom songs not working.
*'''Disable Song Alert:''' Removes the alert shown when starting levels without the song downloaded.
*'''No Song Limit:''' Stops automatic deletion of custom songs. This is done by default to save space.
*'''Reduce Quality (Read Info):''' Lowers audio sampling rate from 44100 Hz to 24000 Hz. Requires restarting to take effect.
*'''Audio Fix 01:''' Increases the audio buffer size, which may fix certain issues. Do not enable if audio is working fine. Causes a slightly longer audio delay. Requires restarting to take effect.

*'''Debug:''' Shows Fmod debug.
*'''Saved:''' Shows a list of the downloaded custom songs with options to play or delete them, or by selecting ''More'', view links to download each soundtrack as well as links to composers' profiles on Newgrounds, Facebook, and YouTube.

*'''Increase Local Levels Per Page:''' Increases created and saved levels per page from 10 to 20.
*'''Manual Level Order:''' Places new levels last in the saved levels list. Useful if you want to move levels to the top manually.
*'''Percentage Decimals:''' Shows decimals in level progress.
*'''Show Leaderboard Percentage:''' Toggles viewing the leaderboard percentage you have on levels. To upload your level progress to the level leaderboard, you need to replay levels completed before Update 2.11.
*'''Do Not...:''' This option flips the attempt counter and level complete message. In addition, the New Best message is replaced with death messages, listed at the bottom of this page. There is also a new set of completion messages (also listed). This option is the only humorous option and, as the information says, does not do anything important.
*'''Confirm Exit:''' Adds an extra confirmation window when exiting levels.
*'''Fast Menu:''' Makes transitions between menu pages faster.
*'''Parental Control:''' Disables comment viewing and posting on [[User Accounts|profiles]] and [[User Levels|user levels]], and shows only featured levels.

Work in progress!
This article is currently undergoing development and in the process of receiving additional information. You can edit it to achieve a higher standard.
File:Android game setting.png
Android game settings menu

All areas contained by the main menu settings button.

Music/SFX Volume

The player can also change the volume of the sound effects (like the crash sound effect) and background music in the Settings' main page.

Vault

Main Article: Vault

The Vault is accessible from the Settings. The player can click on the lock at the top-right corner of the screen to access it. 10 User Coins are required to gain access to the Vault. If this condition is not met, he/she will be met by "The Guard".

Account

This is where the player can either register or sign into an account. Accounts can be used to back up players' save data on the cloud. If a player is logged in, he/she will see also see options for unlinking accounts, refreshing a login, or changing passwords.

How to Play

The "How to Play" section contains instructions for playing Geometry Dash. This section contains only the most basic features of Geometry Dash. These are instructions for controlling the cube, ship, using jump rings, and using Practice Mode.

Options

Options allows the player to set certain features which will optimize their gameplay experience.

  • GameCenter (iOS only): Connects the game to Game Center.
  • Auto-Retry: Automatically re-spawns the player after every crash. When deactivated, a popup showing the percentage achieved appears instead. This is enabled by default.
  • Auto-Checkpoints: Automatically place checkpoints while in practice mode. This is enabled by default.
  • Load songs to memory: Songs are loaded into memory before playing. Increases load time but can improve performance.
  • Change Custom Songs Location: Songs are saved in a different directory. (Fix if custom songs aren't working)
  • Smooth Fix: Makes some optimizations that can reduce lag. Disable if game speed becomes inconsistent.
    • This option was added in Update 1.921. This is enabled by default.
  • Disable explosion shake: Removes the mild shake effect produced when crashing.
  • Flip pause button: Shows the pause button on the left instead of the right of the screen.
  • Show Percentage: Show the current percentage next to the progress bar.
  • Increase max levels: Increases the maximum offline saved levels from 20 to 100.
  • Increase Max Undo/Redo: Increases undo limit in the level editor from 200 to 1,000.
  • Flip 2-Player Controls: Flips which side controls which player during 2-player dual mode.
  • Always Limit Controls: Player 1 controls are limited to one side even when dual mode is inactive.
  • No song limit: Custom songs are no longer auto-removed to save space. (50 maximum if not checked)
  • Higher audio quality: Switches samplerate from 24000 to 44100. This requires a restart to be enabled.
  • Music Offset (MS): Adjusts the offset of the music in milliseconds, should device issues cause the music to be un-synced with the level.
    • The music offset can sometimes be extremely low depending on the device used; it can even go down to -2,147,483,648 (–231).
    • Similarly, the music offset is automatically set to 2,147,483,647 (231 – 1) in Geometry Dash Meltdown and on Android devices.
  • Saved Music: Shows a list of the custom soundtracks downloaded. The player can play them as if the game were a music player.
  • Show cursor in-game (Steam Only): Pause button and mouse cursor are visible during a gameplay.
  • Disable Thumbstick (Steam Only): Disable mouse movement using the controller thumb stick.
  • Fast Practice Reset (Meltdown and Lite only): Reset time after crash in practice mode lowered 1s to 0.5s.

Graphics (Steam Only)

Exclusive to Geometry Dash on Steam, the player can set the quality of the graphics to further optimize gameplay on PC/Mac.

  • Fullscreen: Whether the game fills up the entire screen or not.
  • Windowed Resolution: Sets the size of the screen in windowed mode. The smallest size is 640x480 and the largest is 1920x1080.
  • Textured Quality: Sets the quality of the graphics. One can choose from Low, Medium, High and Auto.

Rate

The player will be redirected to the app's page on App Store, Google Play or Steam, and they can rate the app and tell RobTop what he/she thinks about the game. However, rating the app is not mandatory for getting a new icon - the player can go back anytime without rating to get the "Supporter!" icon.

Songs

In Songs, the player can view a list of official songs used in the game, with the composers' names on them. When View is clicked, he/she is provided with links to the composers' profiles on Newgrounds, Facebook, and YouTube, allowing them to view more songs made by a specific composer.

Help

This is where the player can send a message to RobTop via email if there are any issues with the game. There is a FAQ for the game, but it appears to be under construction. The credits of the game also appear in the Help section.

Low Detail Mode can be toggled there, which limits the number of special effects like particles from the jump rings and portals in order to increase the performance for low-end devices and the Background (If you have a High Device) changes to Medium Quality.

In the bottom-right corner, there are two buttons, labeled "Req" and "Restore." The Req button confirms level moderator status and the restore button does not appear to have any current purpose.
