Roblox, the digital games platform popular with children and tweens, has introduced what it called “significant updates” to parental controls and will stop children younger than 13 from directly messaging other gamers.
In a raft of security and safety measuresannounced Monday, parents will now be able to access controls, set spend limits and monitor their child’s activity remotely without needing access to the child’s account or device.
Some of the changes will happen Monday, while others are expected next year. According to its 2023 annual report, the company had 68.4 million average daily users, 14.5 million of whom made some form of payment, and it made $2.8 billion in revenue last year.
Parents will be able to see exactly how much time is spent on Roblox games, as well as their child’s friends list, and will also be able to set a daily limit on the screen time that can’t be exceeded.
