The fastest way to log out of Roblox
To log out of Roblox on your computer, click the gear icon in the top right corner of the screen, then select Log Out from the menu that appears. This takes about five seconds and works the same way in any web browser on Windows, Mac, or Linux.
If you cannot see the gear icon, you may already be logged out, or your browser window is too narrow. Make your browser window wider and refresh the page. The gear icon should appear in the top right next to your username.
Key Takeaways
- The gear icon in the top right corner of any Roblox page opens a menu with the Log Out button.
- Logging out on the website does not automatically log you out of the Roblox app if you have it installed on your computer.
- If you forget to log out, your session will stay active until you manually log out or your browser clears its cookies.
- Clearing your browser cookies will log you out, but it will also log you out of other websites you use.
Where to find the gear icon on different pages
The gear icon appears in the top right corner on almost every Roblox page — the home page, game pages, your profile, and the catalog. It is a small gray or white icon that looks like a gear or cog. Click it once and a dropdown menu will appear below it.
On some pages, especially on mobile-sized browser windows, the gear icon may be hidden behind a hamburger menu (three horizontal lines). If you do not see the gear icon, look for the three-line menu icon instead, click it, and then look for Log Out in that menu.
What happens after you log out
Once you click Log Out, Roblox will take you to the login page. Your username and password will not be saved unless you tell your browser to remember them. If you are on a shared computer, do not check the "Remember me" box when you log back in, because it will let anyone else on that computer access your account.
If you close the browser without logging out, your session will remain active. The next person to open that browser and visit Roblox will see your account logged in. This is why logging out is important on shared computers.
Logging out of the Roblox app on Windows or Mac
If you use the Roblox app (the standalone program, not the website in a browser), the logout process is different. Open the app and look for a menu button, usually three dots or lines in the top right or top left corner. Click it and select Log Out or Sign Out.
Some versions of the Roblox app show your username at the top of the window. Click on your username and a menu will appear with a Log Out option. If you cannot find a menu, try right-clicking on your username or looking in the app's settings.
If the Log Out button does not work
If you click Log Out and nothing happens, try refreshing the page and clicking the gear icon again. If the page does not load properly, close the browser tab and open a new one, then go to roblox.com and try again.
If you still cannot log out, you can clear your browser's cookies and cache, which will force you out of your account. In most browsers, press Ctrl + Shift + Delete (Windows) or Command + Shift + Delete (Mac) to open the clear browsing data menu. Select "Cookies and other site data" and "Cached images and files," then click Clear Data. When you refresh Roblox, you will be logged out.
Logging out on a shared computer
If you share a computer with other people, always log out when you are done playing. This prevents anyone else from accessing your account, spending Robux, or changing your settings. Make it a habit to click the gear icon and select Log Out before you close the browser or step away from the computer.
If you forget to log out and someone else uses the computer, change your password as soon as you can. Go to the Roblox website on any device, click the gear icon, select Settings, then click Change Password. Enter your current password and your new password, then save the change.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will logging out delete my account or my games?
No. Logging out only removes your session from that browser. Your account, games, and Robux will still exist. When you log back in with your username and password, everything will be there.
What if I log out but my account is still showing as online?
Roblox may take a few minutes to update your online status after you log out. If your status shows online for more than five minutes after logging out, refresh the page. If it still shows online, log out again and clear your browser cookies.
Can I log out of Roblox on all devices at once?
No, you have to log out on each device separately. If you are logged in on your computer, phone, and tablet, you must log out on each one individually. Logging out on your computer will not log you out on your phone.
Does logging out of my browser log me out of Roblox?
No. Logging out of your browser (like signing out of your Google account) does not log you out of Roblox. You must click the Roblox gear icon and select Log Out to leave your Roblox account.
What if I cannot remember my password and need to log out?
You can still log out without knowing your password. Just click the gear icon and select Log Out. If you want to log back in later and cannot remember your password, click Forgot Password on the login page and follow the steps to reset it using your email address.
