Why do we need ScreenGui object

All GUI objects player sees in game are placed in a ScreenGui but a question is what for this object was made

Like does it have some unique functions or why do we just need to place all objects under it? :thinking:

It acts like holder for GUI objects, and makes them visible. If you want know, why everything can’t be just placed inside PlayerGui/StarterGui, then Roblox uses ScreenGuis to organize some of their stuff, like FreeCam.

Also, it helps with phone devices, because now phones have notches, which block small part of screen, but still can greatly harash players when there’s button placed.
