Roblox Player

The Roblox Player is an essential part of Roblox. It is the client that is the core aspect of playing Roblox games on the platform. The Client's GUI has seen multiple changes over the past decade.

Not to be confused with Roblox apps

3 Roblox player apps

• Roblox Player (Can be downloaded on the website)

• Roblox (An app from the Microsoft store)

• Roblox (From any other device)

2006-2008 Client
From 2006 to 2008, the client was very simple and had a game editing tool embedded into the client, which is now known as Roblox Studio. Very little aspects from the original client currently remain in today's client GUI (such as the “reloading” cursor; this was later tweaked in the future).

2009 Client
In 2009 the GUI within the client received an overhaul. This overhaul focused more on simplicity on borders and chat bubbles, as well as adding NPCs in games that had their own independent chat GUI. The ability to take a snapshot from within the client was also implemented.

2011 Client
The ability to record within the client was added in 2011. The Player list also saw a change for the first time. Builders Club badges were now visible in the Player List. The Backpack was also overhauled.

Current Client (2015-present)
This was the latest overhaul of the GUI back in 2015. This overhauled the whole appearance of the client, such as the Chat window, Player list, and Hotbar/Backpack GUI.

Trivia

 * The Roblox client once had its chat filter built-in.
