Quick answer
Secure the Airport Roblox controls support Desktop, Mobile, Tablet, and Console. Use Roblox’s standard movement and camera inputs, then follow the current on-screen key, button glyph, or touch action for scanners, luggage, documents, restraints, and combat. The game’s contextual prompt is more reliable than a permanent third-party key list.

PC controls: keyboard and mouse
On PC, the Roblox client supplies movement, camera, jump, and menu behavior. Secure the Airport supplies contextual keyboard or mouse prompts when you focus a passenger, scanner, bag, document, restraint, or weapon.
Do not assume that a familiar Roblox key is a permanent game-specific bind. Walk into range, center the target, and read the prompt shown in the current HUD.
- Movement and camera come from the Roblox client.
- Station and tool actions come from the current contextual prompt.
- Wait for the result before moving to the next screening layer.
Console controls: follow the controller glyph
Console support is listed on the official experience page. Move and aim with the normal Roblox controller layout, then use the button glyph displayed beside the selected station or action.
Do not translate a PC-key list into a guessed controller button. If the glyph does not switch when you change targets, re-center the object or reconnect the active controller.
Mobile and tablet controls
Touch players use Roblox virtual movement and camera controls plus contextual buttons supplied by the game. Stop moving the camera before tapping a small scanner, luggage, or document action so your focus does not jump to another target.
For touch layout, performance, and missed-tap fixes, use the dedicated mobile guide after learning the universal checkpoint order.
- Center one target.
- Release the camera drag.
- Tap the visible action once.
- Wait for its result.
- Continue with the same passenger.
Passenger and scanner actions
Approach the correct station and keep the intended passenger centered. Activate the prompt once, wait for the scanner result, and keep that result attached to the same traveler.
A successful button press is not the end of the decision. Resolve any warning before releasing the passenger or starting the next person.
- Select one passenger.
- Activate the visible scan prompt.
- Read the result.
- Resolve the warning.
- Clear or stop the same traveler.
Luggage and document actions
Luggage, passport, and boarding-pass checks are separate steps. If an interaction prompt does not appear, first confirm that the previous layer is complete and that you are targeting the correct object rather than the passenger or another station.
On touch screens, avoid moving the camera while pressing a small action. On a controller, pause long enough for the contextual glyph to change when focus moves between objects.
Restraint and combat controls
Equip the current tool and use the on-screen action prompt for handcuffs, weapons, or other response equipment. The official page confirms criminals, dangerous travelers, and boss breaches, but it does not publish a fixed keybind table.
Specific sprint, reload, weapon-switch, aim, or controller-button mappings should be checked in the current build. This guide deliberately does not present Shift, R, or a particular gamepad button as a confirmed game-specific control.
Fix controls that are not working
Start with position and focus: step away, approach again, center the intended object, and finish any incomplete prompt. If another player controls the station, wait or move to an available station.
If the HUD remains missing, open the Roblox menu to confirm the correct input device, reconnect the controller if needed, and rejoin once. Record the device, missing action, and server time before reporting a repeatable issue.
- Re-center the target.
- Finish the previous step.
- Check station ownership.
- Confirm the active input device.
- Rejoin once and record the result.
Missing prompt decision tree
No prompt at all? Step away and return, then center the exact passenger or object. Prompt appears but is disabled? Finish the previous scan, luggage, or document layer. Wrong prompt? Change focus and confirm that another player is not using the station.
Still missing after the target and workflow checks? Confirm the active keyboard, controller, or touch input in Roblox, reconnect that device if applicable, and rejoin once. A repeated failure with the same device and action is useful evidence for a bug report.
- No prompt → reposition and re-center.
- Disabled prompt → finish the prior layer.
- Wrong prompt → change target or station.
- No controller glyph → reconnect the active device.
- Still broken → rejoin once and record device, action, and time.

Frequently asked questions
What are the Secure the Airport controls on PC?
Use the standard Roblox movement and camera controls, then follow the current on-screen prompt for each scanner, luggage, document, restraint, or weapon action. Game-specific prompts can change after updates.
Can you play Secure the Airport with a controller?
Yes. The official Roblox game page lists Console support. Use the displayed controller prompt instead of assuming a keyboard key maps to one permanent gamepad button.
Does Secure the Airport support mobile controls?
Yes. Mobile and Tablet are listed as supported platforms. Touch players use the Roblox movement controls plus contextual buttons shown by the game.
Why is an interaction button missing?
Move closer, center the correct passenger or station, finish the previous screening step, and check whether another player is using the object. Rejoin once if the prompt remains missing.
How do you scan a passenger in Secure the Airport?
Approach the scanner, read the visible interaction prompt, activate it, wait for the result, and resolve any luggage or document warning before clearing the traveler.
Are Shift and R confirmed Secure the Airport keybinds?
Not by the checked first-party source. Treat specific sprint, reload, and controller-button claims as version-dependent until the current in-game HUD confirms them.
