Best UI addons for WoW Forever: light setups and full overhauls
Updated 2 Nov 2026 · 6 of 6 picks have a Forever version · statuses come from the compatibility tracker
The best UI addons for WoW Forever are Bartender4 or Dominos for action bars and MoveAny for moving frames, and ElvUI if you want to replace everything. Forever ships with two screen layouts depending on your preset, so many players will be happy with a couple of tweaks.
We list the light options first because they survive patches better. Full overhauls come last, with a note on what to expect.
