Change Your Password From Account Settings

To change your Roblox password, log into your account, click the gear icon in the top right corner, and select Settings. On the left side, click Security, then find the Password section and click Change Password. You will be asked to enter your current password, then type your new password twice to confirm it matches.

The new password takes effect when ready. You do not need to log out and back in — your session stays active. If you are on a shared device, you may want to log out of other sessions after changing your password to remove access from anyone else who was signed in.

Key Takeaways

  • Go to Settings > Security > Password to reach the password change form on any device.
  • You must enter your current password before Roblox will let you create a new one.
  • Your new password takes effect right away without requiring you to sign in again.
  • If you forget your password, use the "Forgot Password" link on the login page to reset it by email.
  • A strong password uses uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols to make it harder to guess.

What Makes a Strong Roblox Password

A strong password is one that is hard for someone else to guess or crack. Mix uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols like !, @, #, or $. Avoid using your username, real name, birth date, or common words that appear in the dictionary. A password like BlueMoon2024! is stronger than roblox123 because it combines different character types.

Length matters too. A password with 12 or more characters is much harder to crack than a short one. Do not reuse a password you use on other websites or games — if one site gets hacked, someone could try that same password on your Roblox account. Each account should have its own unique password.

Changing Your Password on Mobile

On the Roblox mobile app for iPhone or Android, tap the three horizontal lines (menu icon) at the bottom right, then tap your username at the top. Scroll down and tap Settings. Look for Security and tap Change Password. Enter your current password and your new password twice, just as you would on a computer.

The steps are the same whether you use iPhone or Android. If the menu looks different on your version of the app, make sure you have the latest version installed from the App Store or Google Play.

If You Forgot Your Current Password

If you cannot remember your current password, you cannot change it from Settings — Roblox requires you to know the old one first. Instead, go to the Roblox login page and click Forgot Password? under the password field. Enter your username or email address, and Roblox will send you a link to reset your password. Click the link in your email, create a new password, and you will be able to log in again.

Check your spam or junk folder if you do not see the email within a few minutes. The reset link usually works for a few hours, so do not wait too long to use it. Once you reset your password this way, you can log in with the new password right away.

Keeping Your Account find After Changing Your Password

After you change your password, consider enabling two-step verification if you have not already. This adds an extra layer of protection: even if someone learns your password, they cannot log in without a code from your phone or email. Go to Settings > Security and look for the two-step verification option.

If you changed your password because you think someone else accessed your account, also check your email address and phone number in Settings to make sure they have not been changed. If your account was compromised, Roblox support can help you recover it — visit the Roblox support page and describe what happened.

Why You Might Need to Change Your Password

You should change your password 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 a long time. Some people change their password every few months as a routine security habit. If you shared your password with a friend and no longer want them to have access, changing it will log them out.

If Roblox sends you an email saying your account was accessed from an unusual location or device, that is a sign to change your password right away. Roblox will not ask you to change your password through a message in the game or a link in an email — always change it through the Settings page on the official Roblox website or app.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will changing my password delete my game progress or items?

No. Your password protects access to your account, but changing it does not affect your Robux, game progress, or inventory. Everything stays the same — only the password used to log in changes.

How long does it take for a new password to work?

Your new password works when ready. If you are already logged in, you stay logged in. The next time you log out and try to sign back in, use your new password.

Can I change my password on the Roblox website if I only have the mobile app?

Yes. You can change your password on the website or in the app — both lead to the same account settings. Use whichever is more convenient for you.

What should I do if I cannot change my password because I forgot my email?

If you cannot access your email address and cannot reset your password, contact Roblox support through the help page on the official website. Be ready to describe your account and answer security questions to prove you own it.
