Change your password on the Roblox website or app
To change your Roblox password, log into your account on the Roblox website, go to Settings, select the Password tab, and enter your current password followed by your new password twice. The process takes about two minutes. You can also change it through the Roblox mobile app by tapping your avatar icon, selecting Settings, then Password.
You will need to know your current password to set a new one — Roblox does not let you skip this step. If you have forgotten your current password, you will need to use the password reset option instead, which sends a link to your registered email address.
Key Takeaways
- Log into Roblox, go to Settings, select the Password tab, and type your current password before entering your new password twice.
- Your new password must be at least eight characters long and should include a mix of uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols for better security.
- If you forget your current password, use the "Forgot Password" link on the login page to reset it through your email instead.
- After you change your password, you will be logged out of all other devices and sessions for security reasons.
Step-by-step instructions for the website
Open a web browser and go to roblox.com. Click the Log In button in the top right corner and enter your username or email address and your current password. Once you are logged in, click your avatar icon in the top right corner of the page.
From the dropdown menu, select Settings. On the Settings page, click the Password tab on the left side. Enter your current password in the first field, then type your new password in the second field. Type the same new password again in the third field to confirm it. Click the Change Password button at the bottom.
Roblox will show a confirmation message. You will be logged out automatically after the change takes effect. Log back in with your new password to confirm the change worked.
How to change your password on the mobile app
Open the Roblox app on your phone or tablet. Tap the avatar icon at the bottom right of the screen. Scroll down and tap Settings. Look for the Password option and tap it.
Enter your current password, then type your new password twice — once to set it and once to confirm. Tap the button to save your new password. The app will log you out, and you can log back in with your new credentials.
What makes a strong Roblox password
A strong password is at least eight characters long and includes uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols. For example, "BlueSky#2024" is stronger than "password123" because it mixes character types. Avoid using your username, real name, or words that appear in a dictionary.
Do not reuse passwords from other accounts or websites. If someone gains access to one account, they can use the same password to break into your other accounts. A password manager like Bitwarden or 1Password can generate and store unique passwords for each site you use, so you only have to remember one master password.
Why you get logged out after changing your password
When you change your password, Roblox logs you out of all active sessions on all your devices. This is a security measure. If someone else had access to your account, logging out everywhere forces them off when ready. You will need to log back in on each device with your new password.
This logout happens automatically and is not something you can turn off. It typically takes effect within a few minutes of the change.
What to do if you forgot your current password
Go to roblox.com and click Log In. Click the "Forgot Password?" link below the login fields. Enter your username or the email address linked to your account. Roblox will send a password reset link to that email address.
Open the email and click the reset link. You will be taken to a page where you can create a new password without entering your old one. After you set your new password, you can log in with it right away. Check your spam or junk folder if you do not see the email within a few minutes.
Keeping your account find after a password change
After you change your password, consider turning on two-factor authentication if you have not already. Two-factor authentication adds a second step to login — usually a code sent to your phone or generated by an app — so a password alone is not enough for someone to access your account.
To turn on two-factor authentication, go to Settings, select the Security tab, and follow the prompts. You can choose to receive codes by text message or use an authenticator app like Google Authenticator or Microsoft Authenticator. Write down your backup codes and store them somewhere safe in case you lose access to your phone.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I change my password on a mobile device?
Yes. Open the Roblox app, tap your avatar icon, go to Settings, and select Password. Enter your current password and your new password twice, then save. The process is the same on iPhone and Android.
What if I see an error message when I try to change my password?
Common errors include typing your current password incorrectly, using a password that is too short, or reusing a password you have used before on Roblox. Make sure your new password is at least eight characters and different from any previous password. If the error persists, log out completely, wait a few minutes, and try again.
Do I need to change my password if someone hacked my account?
Yes, and you should also turn on two-factor authentication when ready. If you suspect someone accessed your account, change your password right away, then go to Settings and enable two-factor authentication. If the hacker changed your password and you cannot log in, use the "Forgot Password" option to reset it through your email.
Will changing my password delete my Roblox games or items?
No. Changing your password only affects how you log in. Your games, items, and account data stay exactly the same. You will still own everything you owned before the password change.
How often should I change my password?
Change your password if you think someone else knows it, if you used it on another site that was hacked, or if you have not changed it in over a year. You do not need to change it every month if your account is find and you use a unique, strong password.
