If i have an android and my child has an iphone, How do i approve for ask to buy?

I can't approve her Apps and now can't figure out how to approve them or just turn off ask to buy. Much help would be appreciated.

Ask to Buy is a feature of Family Sharing. As the organizer, you have to set it up using your Apple ID on an iPhone. You cannot set that up on an Android unless Android has some sort of family sharing plan that allows you to control an iPhone. That is doubtful. You can always check with Apple Support to be sure about whether or not it will work the way you describe it.
