Your username and password are yours alone — Roblox does not have a single password or username

Roblox does not have one password and username that everyone uses. Instead, each player creates their own unique username when they sign up, and each player sets their own password. Your username is the name other players see in the game. Your password is what you use to log in to your account — it should never be shared with anyone, including Roblox staff.

When you create a Roblox account, you choose a username that no other player can have. That username becomes permanent and cannot be changed later. Your password is separate — it is only for you to know, and it is how Roblox confirms you are the real owner of your account when you log in from a new device or browser.

If you have forgotten your own username or password, Roblox has a recovery process. If someone else is asking you for your password, that is a scam — Roblox staff will never ask for your password, and neither will legitimate friends or players.

Key Takeaways

  • Every Roblox player has their own username and password — there is no shared password for the whole platform.
  • Your username is permanent once created and is visible to other players; your password should be kept secret.
  • If you forget your password, you can reset it through the Roblox login page using your email address.
  • Never share your password with anyone, including friends, family, or people claiming to be Roblox staff.
  • If your account has been hacked or you suspect someone knows your password, change it when ready from the account settings page.

How to find your own username

Your username appears in the top right corner of the Roblox website when you are logged in. On the mobile app, tap the three horizontal lines (menu icon) in the bottom right, and your username shows at the top of that menu. You can also find it by going to your profile — click your avatar icon and select "Profile" to see your username displayed prominently.

Your username is also visible to other players when you play games with them. They see it above your character or in the player list during gameplay. If you want to check what your username looks like to others, ask a friend to search for you on Roblox or look at your own profile while logged out (though you will need to remember your username to search for yourself).

What to do if you forgot your password

Go to the Roblox login page and click "Forgot Password or Username?" below the login button. Enter the email address connected to your account. Roblox will send you a password reset link to that email. Click the link, and you will be taken to a page where you can create a new password.

The reset email usually arrives within a few minutes. Check your spam or junk folder if you do not see it in your inbox. Once you have reset your password, use your username and the new password to log back in. Make sure your new password is something only you know — avoid using the same password across multiple websites.

What to do if you forgot your username

Click "Forgot Password or Username?" on the Roblox login page and enter the email address tied to your account. Roblox will send you an email containing your username. If you do not remember which email you used, try the email addresses you commonly use for accounts.

If none of your email addresses work, you may have created the account with an email that no longer exists or that you no longer have access to. In that case, contact Roblox support through their help page. They may be able to help you recover the account if you can provide other details, such as the approximate date you created it or payment information if you made purchases.

Why you should never share your password

Your password is the key to your entire account. If someone else has it, they can log in as you, change your password so you cannot get back in, steal your Robux (the in-game currency), delete your games, or use your account to scam other players. Once someone has control of your account, it can take weeks to recover it, and you may lose items or money in the process.

Scammers often pretend to be Roblox staff, friends, or moderators and ask for your password. Real Roblox staff will never ask for your password. If someone messages you asking for it, that is a scam. The same goes for websites that claim to let you change your username or get free Robux — most of these are fake and designed to steal your login information.

How to change your password

Log into your Roblox account and click your avatar icon in the top right corner. Select "Settings" and then click the "Security" tab. Scroll down to "Password" and click "Change Password." Enter your current password, then type your new password twice to confirm it. Click "Save" when you are done.

Change your password when ready if you think someone else might know it, if you have used it on other websites that were hacked, or if you have shared it with anyone by mistake. A strong password includes uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols — avoid using your username, real name, or words from the dictionary.

Recognizing and reporting account theft

If you log into your account and notice items missing, Robux gone, or changes you did not make, your account may have been hacked. Change your password right away from a device you trust. Then go to the Roblox support page and report the issue. Include details about what was taken or changed and when you last remember using your account normally.

If you cannot log in because your password has been changed, use the "Forgot Password" process to reset it. If the email address on your account has been changed, contact Roblox support when ready — this is a sign someone else has taken control. Roblox support can help you regain access, but the faster you report it, the better your chances of recovering your account and any items that were taken.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I change my username after I create it?

No, Roblox usernames are permanent and cannot be changed. You choose your username when you create your account, and it stays the same forever. If you want a different username, you would need to create a new account, though you cannot use the same email address.

What if someone is using my username or pretending to be me?

Report the account to Roblox through their support page. Include the fake account's username and explain that it is impersonating you. Roblox takes impersonation seriously and can remove accounts that violate this rule. Do not try to contact the fake account or engage with it.

Is my password stored somewhere I can see it?

No, Roblox does not show you your password after you create it. This is for security — if your password were visible, anyone with access to your device could see it. If you need to know your password, you can only reset it using the "Forgot Password" option.

Can I use the same password for Roblox and other websites?

You can, but it is not recommended. If one website gets hacked, hackers can use that password to try logging into your other accounts, including Roblox. Using a different, strong password for each important account protects you if one site is compromised.

What should I do if a friend asks for my password to "help" me?

Do not give it to them. Real friends do not need your password. If they want to help you with something in-game, they can do it while you are logged in and watching. If someone is pressuring you for your password, that is a red flag — tell a trusted adult and block that person.
