What you can do on the virtual phone

Check

In short The phone has a wide range of features to explore.

The virtual phone is designed to feel like a real Android device.

Install and arrange apps to customise your home screen.
Connect to Wi-Fi through the phone's settings.
Chat with the built-in AI.
Take photos of your Roblox avatar using the camera.
Build your own app and publish it for other players to install.
Install custom apps that other players have made.

Saving and the one-hour virus rule

Warn

In short Viruses reset after an hour of inactivity, so finish any virus-related badge in a single sitting.

Almost everything on the phone saves automatically when you leave. The one big exception involves viruses. If you rejoin the game after being away for more than an hour, all viruses on your phone are wiped. Rejoining to clear a virus never counts toward a badge.

Worth watching out for

Come back after more than an hour of inactivity and the virus is already gone.

Rejoining to get rid of a virus does not award the SpyNote or RansomLocker badges; you must remove them through the correct in-game process.

The Hardware Tools app will not earn you the RansomLocker badge a separate removal process is required.

Badge guide: what each badge asks you to do

Each badge unlocks a different part of the phone.

Mini-game badges: Play the Pulse, Cursor Expert, and Quiz Master

Tips

In short Both skill-based badges have fixed targets.

Two badges require hitting a score or streak inside a mini-game.

Tips worth knowing

For Play the Pulse, reach a streak of 50 in PulsePress.
The Cursor Game must be installed first: go to the Play Shop, grab the app, then aim for a score of 40.
For Quiz Master, call in to the quiz show and answer every question correctly.

Glossary

Play Shop: The in-game store where you download apps, including The Cursor Game.
SpyNote: A virus that appears on your virtual phone and must be removed through the correct in-game process to earn its badge.
RansomLocker: A virus that requires a specific removal method — the Hardware Tools app will not work and neither will rejoining.
PulsePress: A mini-game app on the virtual phone where you build up a streak; hitting 50 earns the Play the Pulse badge.
Custom app: An app created by another player that you can install on your virtual phone, earning the External Content badge.
Hardware Tools: A built-in app that cannot be used to earn the RansomLocker badge.

Common questions

FAQ

Why did my virus disappear when I rejoined?

All viruses are cleared automatically if you come back to the game after more than an hour of inactivity.

Why did I not get the RansomLocker badge after removing the virus?

RansomLocker requires a specific removal process that is different from using the Hardware Tools app. Rejoining after an hour to let the virus disappear on its own also does not count.

Where do I get The Cursor Game?

Open the Play Shop on your virtual phone and install it from there. Once it is installed, play until you reach a score of 40 to unlock the Cursor Expert badge.

Can I share apps I have made with other players?

Yes — you can build an original app inside the game and publish it for others to download. Installing another player's custom app earns you the External Content badge.
