Change your Roblox password from your account settings

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 and you stay logged in afterward — you do not need to sign back in on your devices.

You can change your password from any device with a web browser. The Roblox mobile app does not have a password-change option, so use a phone or computer's browser instead. If you have forgotten your password entirely, use the "Forgot Password" link on the login page rather than the Settings route.

Key Takeaways

  • Go to Settings on the Roblox website, find the Password tab, and enter your current password plus your new password twice to make the change.
  • Your new password must be at least eight characters long and cannot be the same as your current one.
  • You stay logged in on all your devices after changing your password — Roblox does not force you to sign back in.
  • If you have forgotten your password, use the "Forgot Password" link on the login page and check your email for a reset link instead of using Settings.

Step-by-step: changing your password in Settings

Open a web browser and go to roblox.com. Sign in with your username and password if you are not already logged in. Click the gear icon in the top right corner of the page — this opens your account menu.

Select Settings from the menu. On the left side of the Settings page, click the Password tab. You will see three fields: Current Password, New Password, and Confirm New Password. Type your current password in the first field, then type your new password in both the New Password and Confirm New Password fields. Click the Save button at the bottom.

Roblox will confirm that your password has been changed. You can now close the Settings page and continue using your account normally. Your new password takes effect when ready.

Password requirements and what makes a strong password

Roblox requires passwords to be at least eight characters long. Your new password cannot be identical to your current password, even if you change just one letter. Beyond these rules, Roblox does not enforce requirements like uppercase letters, numbers, or symbols, though including them makes your password harder to guess.

A strong password for any online account uses a mix of uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols. Avoid passwords based on your username, real name, or information visible on your profile. Do not reuse passwords across multiple games and websites — if one site is hacked, attackers will try that password on your other accounts.

What to do if you have forgotten your password

Go to roblox.com and click the login button. On the login page, click "Forgot Password?" below the password field. Enter your username or the email address connected to your account. Roblox will send a password reset link to that email address.

Check your email inbox and spam folder for a message from Roblox. Click the reset link in the email — it will take you to a page where you can enter a new password. The link expires after a set time, so complete the reset soon after requesting it. Once you have set your new password, you can log in normally.

Changing your password on mobile devices

The Roblox mobile app for iOS and Android does not include a password-change feature. If you want to change your password from a phone or tablet, open a web browser instead of the app and go to roblox.com. Follow the same Settings steps you would use on a computer.

After you change your password on the website, you may need to sign out and sign back in on the mobile app. Open the app, go to the More menu (three dots or lines), select Settings, and look for a Sign Out or Logout option. Then sign back in with your new password.

Why you might want to change your password regularly

Changing your password periodically reduces the risk that someone who learned it in the past can still access your account. If you shared your password with a friend, changed devices, or used the same password on another site that was hacked, changing it on Roblox protects your account and any Robux or items you own.

You should also change your password when ready if you suspect someone else has accessed your account, if you receive an email from Roblox about suspicious activity, or if you notice items or Robux missing. If you cannot log in and believe your account has been compromised, contact Roblox Support through their help center rather than trying to reset the password yourself.

Two-factor authentication as an extra security layer

Beyond changing your password, Roblox offers two-factor authentication (also called 2FA or two-step verification). This adds a second check when you log in: after you enter your password, Roblox sends a code to your email or authenticator app, and you must enter that code to finish logging in. Even if someone knows your password, they cannot access your account without this second code.

To turn on two-factor authentication, go to Settings, find the Security tab, and look for the two-factor authentication option. You can choose to receive codes by email or through an authenticator app like Google Authenticator or Microsoft Authenticator. Setting this up takes a few minutes and protects your account much more effectively than a password alone.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to sign back into the Roblox app after changing my password?

No. Changing your password on the website does not automatically sign you out of the mobile app or any other device. You stay logged in and can keep playing. You only need to sign back in if you manually sign out or if Roblox detects suspicious activity on your account.

What if I enter the wrong current password in Settings?

Roblox will show an error message saying your current password is incorrect. You can try again. If you have forgotten your current password, use the "Forgot Password" link on the login page instead of trying to change it through Settings.

Can I change my password on the Roblox mobile app?

No, the mobile app does not have a password-change option. Open a web browser, go to roblox.com, and follow the Settings steps on the website. You can do this from any phone or computer with internet access.

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

Your new password works when ready after you click Save in Settings. You do not need to wait or refresh the page. If you are having trouble logging in with your new password, clear your browser's cache and cookies, then try again.

What should I do if I think my account was hacked?

Change your password right away using the steps above. Then go to the Roblox Support page and report the suspicious activity. Check your account for missing Robux or items, and review your login history if that option is available. If you cannot access your account at all, contact Roblox Support for help recovering it.
