Change your Roblox password from the account settings page

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 works the same way whether you use a computer or mobile browser.

You can change your password at any time, whether you remember your current one or not. If you have forgotten your password entirely, Roblox offers a separate password reset process through your email address.

Key Takeaways

  • You can change your password directly from Settings on the Roblox website if you remember your current password.
  • Roblox requires you to enter your new password twice to confirm it matches before saving.
  • If you forget your password, use the "Forgot Password" link on the login page to reset it through your email.
  • Password changes take effect immediately, and you will stay logged in on your current device after making the change.
  • If you suspect someone else accessed your account, change your password and check your email address and phone number in account settings.

Step-by-step instructions for changing your password

Start by visiting roblox.com and logging in with your username and password. Once you are on your home page, look for the gear icon in the top right corner of the screen and click it to open the menu.

From the dropdown menu, select Settings. On the Settings page, you will see several tabs along the left side. Click on the Password tab. Enter your current password in the first field, then type your new password in the second field. Type the new password again in the third field to confirm it. Click the Change Password button to save your changes.

Roblox will show a confirmation message when the change is complete. You can close the Settings page and continue using your account normally.

What to do if you forgot your current password

If you cannot remember your current password, you cannot use the Settings method described above. Instead, go to the Roblox login page and click the "Forgot Password?" link 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 inbox (and spam folder if needed) for an email from Roblox. Click the link in the email, which will take you to a page where you can create a new password. Enter your new password twice and click the button to confirm. You can then log in with your new password.

Requirements for a strong Roblox password

Roblox does not publicly state a minimum password length, but the platform accepts passwords of varying lengths. A strong password should contain a mix of uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and special characters like exclamation marks or underscores.

Avoid using passwords that are easy to guess, such as your username, the word "password," or common sequences like "123456" or "qwerty." Do not reuse passwords from other accounts, especially if those accounts contain sensitive information like banking or email.

Changing your password on mobile devices

You can change your Roblox password using a mobile phone or tablet by visiting roblox.com in your mobile browser. The steps are the same as on a computer: log in, tap the menu icon (usually three horizontal lines), select Settings, go to the Password tab, and enter your current and new passwords.

The Roblox mobile app itself does not have a built-in password change feature. If you want to change your password on mobile, use the mobile browser version of the website instead of the app.

What happens after you change your password

Your new password takes effect immediately. You will remain logged in on the device where you made the change, so you can continue playing without interruption. On other devices where you are logged into Roblox, you may be logged out automatically, depending on your account settings.

If you change your password because you think someone else accessed your account, check your account email and phone number in Settings to make sure they have not been changed. Review your account activity if Roblox offers that feature, and consider enabling two-factor authentication if it is available on your account.

Resetting your password if your email is compromised

If someone has changed the email address on your Roblox account and you can no longer access it, you cannot use the standard password reset process. In this case, contact Roblox Support through their help page at en.help.roblox.com. Explain that your account has been compromised and that the email address has been changed without your permission.

Roblox Support may ask you to verify your identity by providing information about your account, such as when you created it or what games you have played. This process can take several days. Keep your response detailed and honest to help the support team restore access to your account.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to change my password if I think someone hacked my account?

Yes, change your password immediately if you suspect unauthorized access. Also check that your email address and phone number in Settings have not been changed. If the email has been changed and you cannot access it, contact Roblox Support right away.

Will changing my password log me out of the Roblox app on my phone?

You will remain logged in on the device where you made the password change. On other devices, you may be logged out depending on your settings. If you are logged out of the app, simply log back in with your new password.

Can I change my password without knowing my current password?

No, the Settings method requires your current password. Use the "Forgot Password" link on the login page instead, which sends a reset link to your email address.

How often should I change my Roblox password?

There is no requirement to change your password on a schedule. Change it if you suspect someone accessed your account, if you used the same password on another site that was breached, or if you simply want to update it for security reasons.

What if I do not receive the password reset email?

Check your spam or junk folder first. If the email is not there, make sure you entered the correct email address or username. Wait a few minutes and try again. If you still do not receive it, contact Roblox Support for help.
