In app purchases on Animal Revolt Battle Simulator

I recently got the Animal Revolt Battle Simulator app on iPad for my grandson. Within a couple of days he has racked up $25 of in app purchases. In app purchases is turned off in Settings and the iPad is set to always require a password for purchases. Neither of these settings seem to have an effect. on ARBS. How does this happen and can it be fixed?

iPad Air 3, iPadOS 14

Hello gowenkelk, 


Ensuring you’re able to manage what purchases can be made on the iPad is important, and Apple Support Communities is a great place for help!


It sounds as though you've already reviewed the Use parental controls on your child’s iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch article, and verified the settings on the iPad. Have you also confirmed the iPad is running the latest iPadOS? If not, you can find the steps for updating in the following article.


Update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch


If the iPad is running the latest iPadOS continue with restarting your iPad as outlined in the below article.


Restart your iPad


Let us know how that goes.
