Roblox Introduces Parental Tools to Block Friends and Monitor Activity

New safety updates allow parents to block specific friends, restrict access to games, and view their child's most-played experiences, as the platform responds to ongoing safety concerns.

  • Parents can now block specific friends on their child's friends list and restrict access to individual games or experiences on Roblox.
  • Children under 13 cannot unblock friends or games blocked by their parents without parental approval.
  • A new feature lets parents review the 20 experiences their child has spent the most time in over the past week.
  • These updates are part of Roblox's broader effort to address concerns about harmful content, including grooming and bullying, on the platform.
  • The changes align with the Online Safety Act, which requires platforms to tackle harmful content or face significant fines.
