"Your Apple ID cannot be used to create accounts for other apps" message.

How do I allow to create accounts for third party apps, your solution says that it's in the settings, but the option doesn't exist, even with your instructions, not even searching works. It makes some games and apps that need this boring and useless, please add an updated solution to fix this. Before the Among Us's "Airship" update, I could chat, I could change my name, and I didn't need Apple ID, but I do now, and when I try to sign in, it says: "Your Apple ID cannot be used to create accounts for other apps." It's really annoying, the solutions don't work. Please help!

iPad, iPadOS 14

I have now found the answer to my issue - Signing in with Apple ID is not available for children under the age of 13.

As it says here (under 'Learn More') https://support.apple.com/en-gb/HT210318

Which took a while to find out!

I know, it’s so annoying. It’s because you may be under the age of 13, or your already signed in on another device with the same Apple ID on Among Us. I have the first problem, which is I’m under 13. If you’re also a child and your mom or dad has an apple device, you can ask to play Among Us on their device. If you’re over 13, try remembering the last device you were logged on Among Us with your Apple ID and sign out of it on that device. I really wish Innersloth changed their account system as well, I feel you man. But hopefully this helped. (And sorry this is late as well)

Apple doesn’t routinely monitor the discussions. These are mostly user to user discussions.


If you want to, you can send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem or a suggestion for change. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem/suggested change solved sooner. Pick the closest topic you can find.
