Roblox Age Groups Explained
Roblox places users into one of six age groups after age checking.
- Under 9
- 9–12
- 13–15
- 16–17
- 18–20
- 21+
Each group has different chat rules.

• Account safety review is active
Completing or redoing the age check usually fixes this.

How Roblox Age Checking Works
Roblox uses facial age estimation through your device camera.
Images are processed securely and deleted immediately.
Users aged 13+ can also verify using ID.
Age checks are optional, but chat is locked without them.
Parent Controls and Approval
Parents can:
• Review age-check status
• Update child’s birthday
• Enable chat for under-9 users
• Manage privacy and communication
All settings are available inside Roblox parental controls.
What to Do If Your Age Is Wrong
If Roblox assigned the wrong age group:
• Appeal through Roblox support
• Re-verify using ID (13+)
• Ask a parent to update age settings
Roblox may also request a re-check automatically.
