Change the Simple Edit setting
- Open Fortnite’s in-game menu. On PC or Mac, press Esc; on PlayStation, press Options; on Xbox, press Menu; on Switch, press +.
- Select the gear icon to open Settings.
- Go to the Game tab and scroll to Simple Edit.
- Set Simple Edit to ON to enable it or OFF to disable it. Epic Games Support gives these steps.

Choose how Tap To Simple Edit behaves
Tap To Simple Edit is a separate optional setting. Turn it on if you want to edit with a single press. Leave it off if you prefer to hold and drag so you can control the edit timer duration. Epic describes Simple Edit as letting you change the part of a building piece you are looking at without manually selecting tiles.
What Simple Edit does in play
With Simple Edit enabled, aim at a building piece and use the edit input to change its shape. Epic’s PC settings guide also describes aiming at an already edited piece and pressing edit to reset it; that guide places the setting under Game > Editing. The official support instructions use the broader Game tab path for the toggle.
Quick Recap
Best Value
- An Epic Games account is required to redeem an Epic Games Store Card code
- If playing on a console platform (PlayStation Network, Xbox Live, Nintendo Switch or Mobile) you need to link your Epic Games account to that gaming platform (one time) to redeem your gift card code
- The 16 digit code on the back of the card WILL NOT work if redeemed directly through your gaming platform (PlayStation Network, Xbox Live, Nintendo Switch, Mobile, etc.)
- Note: Nintendo devices do not support Fortnite Shared Wallet, so V-Bucks purchased using your account balance will not show up on your Nintendo device. However, if you purchase items in the web Item Shop — or another platform where you play Fortnite — those items will be available in your Locker across all platforms.
