Managing Screen Time

Screen time controls allow you to restrict the amount of time that your child is allowed to spend on Roblox each day. Once they reach their limit, your child will see a message explaining that they have hit their limit, and they will no longer be able to use Roblox for the rest of the day.

Note that you will need a Roblox account linked to your child’s account to manage screen time limits on behalf of your child. Learn more in the Parents: How to Link Your Child’s Account help article.
