In Roblox, communities (formerly called groups) are a way to build a small virtual hangout with your friends or other players. You can join up to 100 communities. It's free to join a community, but you'll need 100 Robux to create one. Here's how to create and join communities in Roblox whether you're using your iPhone, iPad, Android, PS5, PS4, Xbox, PC, or Mac. We’ll also cover troubleshooting tips for common issues, like a missing “Join Community” button.

  2. Click or tap Communities.

  3. In the app, click or tap the Communities tile. On the website, select Communities from the expanded menu on the left side of the screen.
  4. If you already know the name of the community you want to join, you can enter it in the Search bar at the top of the screen. You can also search using keywords (like “anime” or “building”). If you don’t have a specific community in mind, you can browse through the categories on the main Communities page.
  5. You'll be redirected to the community’s page. You can read their About section, see their Experiences, look at their members, and more.
  6. This is a blue button next to the community’s name.[1]
    • Don’t see the Join Community button? You might be in too many communities already, or you might need to try on a different device. See Troubleshooting for more info.
    • While you can join some communities instantly, others require manual approval from the community’s owner. In those cases, you might need to wait a while before you can participate.
    • Some communities may require you to complete certain tasks before you're approved, such as sending a Personal Message to join. You may be able to find this in the community’s About section.

Troubleshooting

  1. Some Reddit users report that the Join Community button isn’t available on all devices or all versions of the app. If you know you haven’t hit the community limit, and you don’t see the Join Community button, try again on another device (e.g., your phone or tablet instead of your gaming console).
    • If you can’t join a community from the Roblox app, try doing so from the website.
  2. If you suddenly can't join a community even though you’ve been able to in the past, you may have hit the 100 community limit. Roblox won't notify you if you hit the limit, so leave a few communities before you try joining a new one.
  3. In some cases, you might just be dealing with a minor glitch. If you don't see the Join Community button, restart the app or website. Then, try again. You can also try updating the app and see if that helps.
