Change your password from your account settings

Open Roblox in your web browser and sign in to your account. In the top right corner, click the gear icon or your username to open the menu, then select Settings. On the left side, click Security or Account (the exact name depends on your device). You will see a section labeled Password with a button that says Change Password or Reset Password.

Click that button. Roblox will ask you to enter your current password first to confirm it is really you. Type it in and click Next or Continue. Then enter your new password twice — once in the first box and again in the second box to make sure you typed it correctly. Click Save or Confirm. The page will show a message saying your password has been changed.

If you are on the Roblox mobile app instead of a web browser, the steps are similar: tap your avatar icon at the bottom right, tap the gear icon for settings, scroll down to Security, and tap Change Password. You will still need to enter your old password and then your new one twice.

Key Takeaways

  • You change your password through Settings > Security on the Roblox website or mobile app, not through any other page.
  • Roblox requires you to enter your current password before you can set a new one, so you must remember your old password to make this change.
  • Your new password must be entered twice to prevent typing mistakes, and Roblox will show a confirmation message when the change is complete.
  • If you cannot remember your current password, use the "Forgot Password" option on the login page instead of trying to change it from settings.

What makes a strong Roblox password

A strong password is harder for someone else to guess or crack. Use at least 8 characters — longer is better. Mix uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols like ! or @. Do not use your username, your real name, or words from the dictionary by themselves. "Roblox2024" is weak because it uses the game name and a predictable number. "Tr0pic@lSunset92!" is stronger because it mixes different types of characters.

Avoid passwords you have used on other websites or games. If someone breaks into one site and finds your password, they will try that same password on Roblox and your email. Each account should have its own unique password. Write it down in a safe place, or use a password manager like Bitwarden or 1Password that stores passwords securely for you.

If you forgot your current password

You cannot change your password from settings if you do not remember the old one. Instead, go to the Roblox login page and click Forgot Password? below the password box. Enter your username or the email address connected to your account. Roblox will send you an email with a link to reset your password.

Check your email inbox — the message usually arrives within a few minutes. Click the link in the email. It will take you to a page where you can enter a brand new password without needing to know the old one. Enter your new password twice and click Reset Password or Save. You can then sign in with your new password.

If you do not see the email, check your spam or junk folder. If it is not there after 10 minutes, go back to the forgot password page and try again. Make sure you are using the correct email address — the one you signed up with, not a different one.

Changing your password on a shared or borrowed device

If you are using someone else's computer or a shared family device, change your password from a private browser window. In Chrome, Firefox, Safari, or Edge, press Ctrl+Shift+N (or Cmd+Shift+N on Mac) to open a private or incognito window. Sign in to Roblox there and change your password as usual. When you close the private window, your login information will not be saved on the shared device.

After you change your password, sign out of Roblox completely on the shared device. Click your username in the top right and select Sign Out or Logout. Do not just close the browser — actually sign out. This makes sure the next person who uses that device cannot access your account.

What to do if someone else changed your password

If you try to sign in and your password no longer works, and you did not change it yourself, someone may have broken into your account. Do not panic. Go to the Roblox login page and click Forgot Password? Enter your username or email. Follow the password reset steps above — you will get an email with a link to set a new password, even if you did not create the old one.

After you reset your password and sign back in, check your account for damage. Look at your inventory to see if items are missing. Check your Robux balance — the in-game currency — to see if money was spent. If something is wrong, go to Settings > Account and look for a section called Account Activity or Login History to see where your account was accessed from. Then contact Roblox Support through the help page and describe what happened. They can sometimes restore items or Robux if the theft was recent.

Signing out of Roblox on all devices

If you changed your password because you think someone else has access to your account, you may want to sign yourself out everywhere at once. Go to Settings > Security and look for an option that says Sign Out of All Sessions, Log Out Everywhere, or Active Sessions. Click it. This will sign you out of Roblox on every device — your phone, your computer, your tablet, everywhere.

You will then need to sign back in on each device you use regularly. This is a good safety step if you think someone else knows your old password or has been using your account without permission. After you sign out everywhere, sign back in only on devices you trust and control.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to change my password if I change my email address?

No. Your password and email are separate. Changing your email does not affect your password, and you do not need to change your password when you update your email. However, make sure you can still access the new email address, because Roblox uses it to send you password reset links if you need them.

How often should I change my Roblox password?

You do not need to change it on a schedule. Change it if you think someone else knows it, if you used the same password on another website that was hacked, or if you have not changed it in over a year. If you use a unique, strong password and only you know it, changing it frequently is not necessary.

Will changing my password delete my game progress or items?

No. Your password protects access to your account, but it does not affect your inventory, Robux, or any progress you have made in games. Everything stays the same when you change your password.

Can I change my password on the Roblox mobile app?

Yes. Tap your avatar icon at the bottom right, tap the gear icon for settings, scroll to Security, and tap Change Password. You will enter your old password and then your new password twice, just like on the website.

What if I get an error message when I try to change my password?

Common errors include "Password does not meet requirements" (your new password is too short or too straightforward), "Passwords do not match" (you typed the new password differently in the two boxes), or "Incorrect password" (you entered your current password wrong). Read the error message carefully and try again. If the error keeps happening, wait a few minutes and try once more.
