Using macOS Screen Time Controls
The most effective way to block Roblox on your Mac is through Apple’s built-in Screen Time feature. Open System Preferences (or System Settings on newer macOS versions) and navigate to Screen Time. Click “Content & Privacy” and enable restrictions. Under “Web Content,” select “Limit Adult Websites” and add roblox.com to the “Never Allow” list. This blocks both the website and prevents new downloads of the Roblox app.
Blocking Through Your Router
For household-wide protection, configure your router’s parental controls. Access your router’s admin panel (usually by typing 192.168.1.1 in your browser) and look for content filtering or parental control settings. Add roblox.com, rbxcdn.com, and robloxlabs.com to the blocked domains list. This method works across all devices connected to your network.
Browser-Specific Blocking
Each browser offers different blocking options:
- Safari: Go to Safari > Preferences > Websites > Content Blockers and enable restrictions
- Chrome: Install extensions like BlockSite or use Chrome’s supervised user features
- Firefox: Use built-in parental controls or add-ons like FoxFilter
Third-Party Software Solutions
Applications like Qustodio, Circle Home Plus, or Cold Turkey offer comprehensive blocking features. These tools provide scheduling options, detailed usage reports, and can block both websites and applications simultaneously. Most require a subscription but offer more granular control than built-in options.
Removing Existing Roblox Installation
If Roblox is already installed, delete it from the Applications folder and clear related files from ~/Library/Application Support/Roblox. Empty the Trash and restart your Mac to ensure complete removal.
Remember that determined users might find workarounds, so combining multiple blocking methods typically works best. For families looking for gaming alternatives, exploring other online games can provide supervised entertainment options.
Who this is for: Parents, educators, and administrators wanting to restrict Roblox access on Mac computers.
