Toca Boca purchases

Can I make in-app purchases from Toca Boca using a child’s account? I have my daughter set up for family sharing, but when we click to buy & enter my year of birth, an error says ‘Oops, that didn’t go through, try again soon!’ It seems to work ok using the app on my phone, but I am I correct in thinking purchases I make cannot be shared with my daughter? Thank you

iPad, iPadOS 15

Hi aimesf,


Thanks for posting in Apple Communities.


You can share purchases with your child. However; consumable in-app purchases cannot be shared using Family Sharing. Are you able to approve other app download for your child? Try connecting the device to a different Wi-Fi or cell network.


Buy additional app features with in-app purchases and subscriptions



Regards.
