Joining a friend or user you follow on Roblox is straightforward if they are currently in an experience and have their settings configured to allow followers to join them.
Steps to Join a Followed User in an Experience
To join someone you follow who is currently playing an experience on Roblox, follow these steps:
- Find the User: Begin by searching for the user's username using the search bar at the top of the Roblox website or application, or navigate directly to their profile page if you know how.
- Check for the Join Option: Once you are on their profile page or see them in search results, look for a Join Experience option. This option will only appear if the user is currently playing an experience and has their privacy settings set to allow followers or friends to join them.
- Click to Join: If the Join Experience button is visible, simply click it. You will then be automatically placed into the same experience (game) that they are currently playing.
Understanding the Conditions
It's important to note that the ability to join someone you follow depends on two main factors:
- They must be in an experience: You can only join a user if they are actively playing a game.
- Their privacy settings: The user must have their settings configured to allow others, specifically followers or friends (depending on their relationship with you), to join their game sessions.
You can quickly check the user's status and join availability using their profile page:
| User Status | Join Button Available? | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Not in an experience | No | User is online but not playing a game. |
| In an experience (Private) | No | User is playing but has privacy settings restricted. |
| In an experience (Joinable) | Yes | User is playing and allows followers/friends to join. |
If the Join Experience option does not appear, it means the user is either not currently playing a game or has chosen to disable the ability for others to join them.
