How To Manage Screen Time On Roblox

As always, I will show you how to do this on the website and then on the app.

Roblox Website

Step 1: Head over to Roblox.com and log in to your account.

Step 2: After that, look to the top right for the Gear icon and click it. A menu will appear, and from this, find Settings. Click it.

Step 3: Look to the center left menu and click on Privacy and Content restrictions.

Step 4: From this menu in the middle, click on Screen time.

Step 5: Now we are on the Screen Time screen. Here you will see a graph on how much time you are spending each day on this platform. Looking below that they give you two options:

Daily Limit
Top experience

Let us click on the first one.

Step 6: This will pop up a window that lets you set a daily limit on your account.

WARNING: You will be unable to access Roblox once your time limit has been reached for the day. A Message will appear explaining that you have reached your limit and must wait until the next day to play again.

Set a daily limit on the time you spend on Roblox. This includes Create Hub and Roblox Studio.

Click on the down arrow on the No limit line. This will give you many options for the time that you can set. Click on the circle to the right of the one you wish to choose. After that, click on the Save button. It will kick you out of the game after you hit your time limit for the day. Done with that option.

Step 7: Time to click on the second option called Top experience. Click that and you will see the games you played last week and how long. All done…

You now know how to set your limits so you don’t waste your whole day on Roblox. Time to show you on the app.

Roblox App

Step 1: Find the App on your device and tap on it.

Step 2: After that, look to the bottom right of your screen, and there you will see 3 dots which we will want to tap on. The menu screen will appear, and you want to find Settings. Tap it.

Step 3: On the Settings screen, tap on Privacy & content restrictions.

Step 4: On here, tap on the Screen time option.

Step 5: Here is the screen we saw on the website. As before, you have the graph to show you how much you are playing daily. We want to tap on the Daily limit option.

WARNING: You will be unable to access Roblox once your time limit has been reached for the day. A Message will appear explaining that you have reached your limit and must wait until the next day to play again.

Step 6: The Daily Limit window will appear, and as before, tap the down arrow on the box. You can choose the time here and tap save. If you want to see the time you have spent on each game you played this week, tap on Top Experience option. DONE!
