Add Keyboard compatibility to Roblox Mobile

Add Keyboard compatibility to Roblox Mobile

The Issue

For years users have been asking for the option to play Roblox using a keyboard and mouse. Hopefully this petition could help us achieve it.

Not everyone has access to good gaming laptops/PCs. We want the option to use keyboards and mouses for easier gameplay, because let’s be honest, it’s not easy to play on mobile. There are many games we want to play, but can’t for reasons like graphical issues, difficultly controlling the game, and games that are just not meant for mobile devices. 

With keyboards connected, there should be an option to “Request Desktop version” on a mobile game. This way, we have access to games that are normally not available (or are difficult to use) on phones/tablets. The game could also detect the keyboard and automaticity change it to the desktop version. I know many players would think it’s unfair for players to use keyboards and mouses on games that are meant to be played on mobile. This could be solved by an automatic detection on whether or not a player is using a keyboard. If it discovers a player is using a keyboard on a mobile game, it will just continue the game like it normally is and ignore the keyboard.  

So if you think this is a good feature for Roblox to add, please sign this petition and let’s turn this into a reality!
