To stop the camera bob while walking, turn off View Bobbing in Minecraft’s settings. The menu location depends on your edition: Java players should check Options → Accessibility Settings, while the general Bedrock route is Settings → Video.

Turn off View Bobbing in Java Edition

  1. Open Options.
  2. Select Accessibility Settings.
  3. Switch View Bobbing off.

If you remember this toggle being in Video Settings, check Accessibility Settings instead. Mojang’s Java Edition Snapshot 25w41a says View Bobbing was removed from Video Settings because it duplicated an accessibility setting: Mojang’s 25w41a snapshot notes. The note describes that snapshot, so menus may vary by game version.

Turn off View Bobbing in Bedrock Edition

  1. Open Settings.
  2. Select Video.
  3. Find View Bobbing and switch it off.

This is the general route documented in a community-maintained Bedrock menu reference. The layout can differ between console, mobile, and desktop versions; if the screens do not match, look through the Video settings list for the toggle.

What the setting changes

View Bobbing controls the camera’s walking animation: switching it off stops the usual up-and-down bob as you move on foot. It does not necessarily remove every animation or source of movement in the game. For example, Mojang’s issue tracker recorded a strider-riding bobbing exception for versions through 1.21; that older report does not establish how every later version behaves: MC-176454.

If the camera still moves

  • Confirm whether you are playing Java or Bedrock, then use the matching menu route above.
  • On Java, check Accessibility Settings if the toggle is missing from Video Settings.
  • On Bedrock, inspect the Video settings list; device layouts are not necessarily identical.
  • If the movement happens only while riding or during a particular animation, it may not be controlled by the walking View Bobbing toggle.
