Set Up Your Roblox Account, Game, and Privacy – Step by Step
Account Set-Up
First, let us start with how to create a Roblox account.
Visit the official Roblox website and start your account creation process by clicking on Sign Up.
I’ve listed everything you’ll need to fill out to set up your account below.
Birthday: When creating an account, it is critical to provide your correct birthdate because Roblox has security and privacy settings based on the user’s age.
Keep reading this blog to know more about Roblox privacy settings.
Username: It should not be your real name. Create a unique username, use it creatively and descriptively.
Password: Maintain a password that is difficult to guess. Keep it to yourself, unless you want to share it with your parents or guardian.
After filling in the Gender (which is optional), click on Sign Up. When you click Sign Up, you will be presented with a Verification dialog box. Solve the challenge by clicking on Verify.
That’s it! Your Roblox account has been created! You will now be directed to Roblox Home.
Once you’ve created your account, enter and verify your email address in case you need to reset your password at any time.
To add your email, go to Settings by clicking the gear icon in the upper right corner.
To enter your email address, click on Add Email.
The following dialog box will appear after you click. Fill in your information and press the Add Email button.
You will receive an email stating that your email address has been changed and that an email has been sent to you for verification.
To finish the verification process, go to your email account and verify your email.
You can now login into Roblox using your username and password whenever you want.
Game Creation Set-Up
Once you’ve logged in to Roblox, go to the Header section of the website and click on the Create option to start making games.
When you click on Start Creating, a Download Studio dialog box will appear.
Install the Roblox Studio after downloading the.exe file to get the Roblox design tool for your desktop.
When you install Roblox Studio, it will launch. Now that you’ve logged in with your username and password, you can start making your own games.
Privacy Settings
As previously stated, Roblox’s privacy and security measures vary depending on the age of the user.
If you are under the age of 13, the content you share is subject to “Maximum Filtering.” This means that Roblox employs a more restrictive mode for users under the age of 13.
If you want to change Roblox’s privacy settings, follow these steps:
- Step 1: In the upper-right corner of the Roblox screen, click the gear icon.
- Step 2: Then, select Privacy from the Settings menu.
- Step 3: You can adjust the privacy settings here to suit your needs.
Roblox also provides Parental Controls, which allow parents of young users to set restrictions to ensure that their children’s accounts only access age-appropriate content. It also allows parents to set monthly spending limits for their children.
Conclusion
Congratulations! You’ve just learned how to set up a Roblox account and customize its privacy settings. You can now create 3D games and share them with others without fear of jeopardizing one’s safety or security. Use Roblox to give your imagination wings and have fun with your creations.
