hello, I can't allow apps to request to track, because there is an inscription below "this setting cannot be changed because a profile is restricting it or because your Apple ID is being managed, does not meet the minimum age requirements or is missing age information." I have the year 2000 entered, what should I do?
iPhone XS, iOS 14
I have been having this problem also I tried what above said allow tracking on a app while not signed in then log back in and it still isn't working

Hello tolcia,
Thank you for taking the time to post your question to Apple Support Communities. Based on your post, it sounds like you're unable to turn on the “Allow Apps to Request to Track” setting. Is that correct?
If so, this can happen for a number of reasons. You mentioned that the birthday for your Apple ID is already set to over 18. The "Manage activity tracking permissions" section of If an app asks to track your activity has some additional information about this. If your Apple ID was created in the last 3 days, this behavior would be expected.
Also, if you're using an Apple ID managed by educational institute, this would limit your ability to enable this feature. About Managed Apple IDs for education
If the scenarios above don't seem to fit your situation, then we'd recommend checking Settings > General for "Profiles & Device Management." If you're seeing this setting available on your device, that configuration profile is likely limiting tracking on the device.
Let us know if this information helps.
Regards.
So I was able to fix it! What I did is logged out of my apple id from my phone and then checked if I could enable the feature, and I was able to, so I left the toggle on and tested it with and app and it worked. So then I logged back in with my apple id and works fine now
So steps
me too i’m 18 and it still isn’t letting me turn it on it’s greyed out cause it apparently doesn’t meet the age requirement
Thx mate that fix my problem
My apple ID birthday is set to over 18, it’s my personal apple ID and not managed by any company and I have deleted all the profiles I had. Even though, I still can’t turn it on💔
Ugh unfortunately I tried that and it still says not meeting age requirements. The birthday is set to August 1, 2000
Try tracking work
I ended up having to sign out of my account on my device, then sign back in. It allowed me to enable it afterwards.
Can't get tracking to work on my iphone12
I didn’t change any info on my apple id just log out and did the steps and then logged back in
Thank you!!!
THANK YOU SO MUCH <333
