Can’t add child’s Google account to family setup Apple Watch. Keep getting “something went wrong” from Google sign in page. I enter my child’s Google address, password, my account info to authorize the sign in, and then get an error message. Doesn’t seem like they actually tested this feature out. Anyone else have luck adding a Google account from the family member’s Watch app?
Hi IceBox4,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
We are happy to help. It looks like you are trying to set up an Apple Watch for a family member, is that correct? Is their Google account already set up as an Apple ID? It looks like you are in the Mail Settings. Are you just trying to add the Google mail account? Have you tested to see if you can sign in with these credentials in webmail? If you're unable to sign in there, then you'd want to reach out to Google Support.
If you have not added your son to Family Sharing yet, take a look at the steps in Set up Family Sharing. If you have already added them, and need to set up their email account, learn how to Add an email account to your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch here.
Cheers!
