This feature is awesome. Would be also great if we could whitelist certain ip adresses that may login into your account for extra security.
some users canât as roblox is being discontinued on old iOS devices soon

How is this relevant to the release of 2FA on Apple devices running iOS 15 or newer? I donât quite understand your complaint about thisâŚ.
uhh old apple devices can run iOS 15 thoughâŚ
The decision to end support for those devices has nothing to do with this feature. Also, not all Apple devices that Roblox still supports can run iOS 15 such as the iPhone 5s.
Roblox just removed support from lots of older iPhone models⌠The Android market is also shared between tablets, phones, cars, projectors as well. Android is open-sourced, which makes it much easier to develop for
I said something like this thoughâŚ
the devices they are discontinuing canâtâŚ
yeah thatâs true, kind of⌠also these devices are
- iPad 2
- iPhone 4s
- iPod Touch (5th Gen)
They are phones that canât handle modern Roblox and probably should have been removed a long time ago. These devices were also 32 Bits btw.
Thatâs not true. Roblox runs in 32-Bit and there is no 64-Bit version. Only a 64-Bit studio exists.
The devices were likely removed because Roblox would somehow gain profit by doing so.
When will biometric data (such as Face ID) be available for security?
Roblox runs in 64-bit otherwise it wouldnât work on modern MacOS and modern iOS.
They are likely discontinuing support for 32-bit devices to cut down on time spent on making the releases run on 32-bit devices or something of the sort.
Everything that only runs 32-bit applications nowadays are just outdated and need updated anyway.
Weird. I guess windows users are missing out. It runs on 32-Bit for Windows because it shows compatibility settings for 9x:
Studio does not:
It still runs on 32-bit on some windows devices so that must be whatâs happening to you.
Runs in 32 bit for some older Windows versions or devices
Apple discontinued support for 32 bit apps with iOS 11 in September 2017, aka 5½ years ago so it must be 64 bit on iOS at least
Overall I think this is a GREAT update because if you look at how many accounts get hacked its a lot. This is especially good for users who are <13 because they are the most likely to fall for a âFree Robuxâ scam, so now their parents/guardians can add this to they device(s)! Awesome update Roblox!
actually this does nothing to protect against scams
scams grab your ROBLOSECURITY 99% of the time, which bypasses the key
Iâm unsure if this was intentional, but the Roblox app only supports physical security keys. In Safari, I set up a Passkey using iCloud and it works fine in the web. However, when using the app, it specifically prompts me for a physical security key rather than biometrics using Passkey.
Other applications like Twitter and GitHub work just fine. Iâll share some screenshots below:

Yes I was coming to the announcement to ask the same thing. Pretty weird that you canât use Biometrics as a security key for the app
