Adding friends on Roblox can be fun! Whether it's a person you added in a game you're playing, a friend in real life, or just send a random person you met, it can all be a great experience. However, you might struggle with how you can add friends on Roblox; luckily, you've come to the right place! In this How.com.vn, you'll learn how to add friends in and outside a game on Roblox.

Things You Should Know

Log in and navigate to the “Friends” page and search a player’s name in the search bar. Or, go to the in-game menu and click “Players” to find friends nearby.
Click “Add Friend” next to the player's name to send a friend request.
Wait for the player to accept or decline your request. You’ll receive a notification about their choice either way.

Head to the Roblox Home page. If you're on a tablet or a phone, just open the app.
Log in or create an account. Unfortunately, you can't add friends without an account, so you'll have to create one or log in.

That'll lead you to the menu where you can search for people.

Type in the character name you want to find. If you don't know anyone, you could try joining a group or playing more games. If you really want that person to be your friend, try being nice to them. Once they see how nice you are, they might accept your friend request.
- Don't randomly send friend requests to random people. Chances are, they won't accept and will ignore. And don't keep sending them requests over and over if they decline - they'll think you're annoying if you do this and may block you.
Scroll down and locate the user you want to find.
7
Scroll down and click Send friend request. After clicking, the button should then read Request sent if the request was sent.
- You can also accept the friend request by going there. Find the user, and if they sent you a request, it should say Accept request. Click it, and the button should change.
8
Wait for them to either accept or decline. Remember, just because you send a request, it does not mean they will automatically be your friend. They have the right to decline the request, so do not be sad if you aren't accepted as their friend. Instead, find some other people who are willing to have fun playing the game with you.
- You'll receive a message if they accepted. Once they do, say hi and wait for them to respond. Then go on to playing games together and chatting!

Question
How do I find out how to find what someone is playing without it saying in the game?
Community Answer
If you are in a party with them, and they are the party leader, look on the party tab. If not, it usually says on their profile.

How do I join people when they're not my friend?

You can't join people who aren't on your friends list, unless they've changed their settings so that everyone can follow them into a game.

I always make sure I know them well in either real life or in Roblox first. You can do that by asking your real life friends to friend request you or talk to someone in the game, then friend request them.

Don't be upset if someone does not accept your friend request. They might not know you yet, so it's always good to play with them more.

Try asking them to form a team in-game. That will help you out better. For example, if you're playing Jailbreak, you might ask them to escape with you.

If you make a group chat, don't add several different players at once without their permission. They might not want to be among random people and might leave as a result.

If someone you've friended asks you for your password or request for personal information, unfriend that person or decline their friend request. Likewise, unfriend players who encourage you to play games that are inappropriate or are against your parents'/guardians' rules, online date, cyber bully, hack, scam, constantly use inappropriate words or do inappropriate things, or want you to friend them/add them on other websites that you are not allowed to be on.
