How do I set up a Parent Pin on Roblox? What’s it for?
You can easily lock access to your child’s Roblox account settings by creating a four-digit PIN.
Once enabled, there will be an additional layer of security to protect their account details — including your password, email address, and privacy settings. How to set up a parent PIN:
- Log in to your account. If you have forgotten your password or can’t get access, follow Roblox’s guidance to recover your password.
- Go to Account Settings. In the browser, select the gear icon located at the top-right corner. On mobile apps, the settings are in the three-dots menu.
- Create your PIN. In the settings menu, select the Parental Controls tab, then toggle the button to turn on (and create) a PIN.
