PSA: The Roblox app beta for Windows is now underway!

I am part of the Beta program and have been for months now. Why have I not been given this feature yet?

As stated in OP, only a small amount of people have been allowed to opt in, and being a part of the Beta program doesn’t grant you automatic access

This is awesome, any release dates?

Could you possibly give us an estimated time as to when this will become available to the public, or when you plan on increasing the amount of users that can opt-in, @phri? I’d love to test this out, and find/report bugs.

I really love the sleekness of the app, I would love to opt-in. I remember the escape menu changing for a brief time. Was that just a test?

This really should be given to windows user who are part of the program. The 1% stated can be non devforum users, who might not be bothered about reporting a glitch or bug.

Giving only 1% of all players access is nothing but dumb. We understand it’s not stable, so “but there might be a bug which we don’t want everyone seeing” isn’t a good excuse.

This is not the UWP App. This is the ROBLOX Player we are talking about!

Nope. But looks like it’s gonna take a while. Since they said:

Well be deactivating and enabling this beta over the following weeks and/or months.

No- I mean that this is like the current Windows 10 app.

I am in confusion but ok the UWP app really sucks

Yeah, that’s why I don’t use it. This is kinda a replacement.

Somewhere between June and August, I received the update for the menu, then it got reverted a few days after. The same thing happened to me in October, I had the update and it got reverted to the old one. Anyone know why? :sweat_smile:

…It’s native, Roblox UI. Even if it wasn’t, you can’t use extensions in the locked down browser from the new app.

I have a few questions.

  1. Is Roblox FPS unlocker supported with this?
  2. Will this roll out in the future to 2% → 5% → 10%, etc…
  3. What are the known bugs with it?
  4. Will there be support for apps like create.roblox.com, devforum.roblox.com, developer.roblox.com, etc…

I just want to know because I don’t have it yet.

I meant the little bar at the top of your screen in the website lol
