Change your password through the Roblox website or app settings

To change your Roblox password, log into your account on the Roblox website or mobile app, go to Settings, select the Account tab, and choose Change Password. You will need to enter your current password, then type your new password twice to confirm it. The change takes effect immediately.

You can change your password from any device where you are logged in. If you are on a computer, go to www.roblox.com, click the gear icon in the top right corner, and select Settings. On mobile, tap the menu icon (three horizontal lines), scroll down to Settings, and tap Account. The steps are the same whether you use iOS, Android, or a web browser.

Key Takeaways

  • You must enter your current password before you can set a new one, so have it ready when you go to Settings.
  • Your new password must be at least eight characters long and should not be a password you have used on other websites or accounts.
  • After you change your password, you will stay logged in on that device, but you may be logged out on other devices after a few minutes.
  • If you cannot remember your current password, use the "Forgot Password" link on the login page instead of trying to change it through Settings.
  • Turning on two-step verification adds a second layer of security even if someone learns your new password.

What makes a strong Roblox password

Roblox requires passwords to be at least eight characters long. A strong password includes a mix of uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols. For example, a password like "BlueSky#2024" is stronger than "bluesky" or "12345678". Avoid using your username, your real name, or words that appear in the dictionary by themselves.

Do not reuse a password from another website or account. If that other site is hacked, someone could use the same password to access your Roblox account. Each account should have its own unique password. Write your password down in a secure place, or use a password manager to store it safely.

What happens after you change your password

The new password takes effect right away. On the device where you made the change, you stay logged in and can keep playing without interruption. On other devices — a phone, tablet, or computer — you may be automatically logged out within a few minutes. When you try to log back in on those devices, use your new password.

If you have Roblox Studio open on another computer, you may need to log out and log back in there as well before you can save or publish games. This is normal and happens because Roblox is updating your login status across all connected devices for security reasons.

If you forgot your current password

You cannot change your password through Settings if you do not remember the current one. Instead, go to the Roblox login page at www.roblox.com and click "Forgot Password?" Enter your username or email address. Roblox will send you a link to reset your password. Click the link in the email and create a new password.

Check your spam or junk folder if you do not see the email within a few minutes. The reset link usually works for a limited time, so do not wait days to use it. If you do not have access to the email address on your account, you may need to contact Roblox support for help recovering your account.

Protecting your account after a password change

Changing your password is a good first step, but you can add more protection. Turn on two-step verification in your Account settings. This means that even if someone learns your password, they cannot log in without a code sent to your email or phone. Two-step verification is one of the most effective ways to keep your account safe.

Keep your email address up to date in your Roblox settings. If your account is ever compromised, Roblox uses your email to help you regain access. Also check your login history in Settings to see if anyone has logged into your account from an unfamiliar location or device. If you see a login you do not recognize, change your password again immediately.

Changing your password on mobile

On the Roblox mobile app for iOS or Android, tap the menu icon (three horizontal lines) at the bottom right of the screen. Scroll down and tap Settings. Select the Account tab. Tap Change Password, enter your current password, then enter your new password twice to confirm it.

The process is the same on both iPhone and Android. Make sure you are using the official Roblox app from the App Store or Google Play, not a third-party app, to keep your account safe. Third-party apps may steal your login information.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does it take for my new password to work everywhere?

The new password works immediately on the device where you changed it. You may be logged out on other devices within a few minutes, and you can log back in with your new password right away. There is no waiting period.

Can I change my password if I am not logged in?

No. You must be logged in to your account to change your password through Settings. If you are not logged in, use the "Forgot Password" link on the login page instead.

What if I change my password but still cannot log in?

Wait a few minutes and try again, as the change may not have synced across all servers yet. Make sure you are typing your new password correctly, including uppercase and lowercase letters. If you still cannot log in, use "Forgot Password" to reset it again.

Will changing my password delete my games or items?

No. Changing your password does not affect your games, items, Robux, or any other account data. It only changes how you log in.
