Purchase requests from child are only going to one device Both my iPad and iPhone are showing as linked for family sharing. I am the organiser and set this up on my iPhone. Why are purchase requests only going to my iPad and not my iPhone for a child account in the family?

Ask to buy I have family sharing set up and all working great, but suddenly when my daughter asks for an app in the App Store the request goes to my iPad when it used to go to my iPhone. Same apple id, all looks fine, and the change happened suddenly. How do I make the request go back to my phone?

Try turning off Ask to Buy and then re-enable it.
