Ask to buy

I have my Apple ID active on my iPhone and iPad. When my kid does an “ask to buy” request, it shows up on my iPad, but not my iPhone. How do I make my iPhone the primary approval source?

iPhone 12, iOS 15

Ask to Buy on iPad when having only one Apple device My daughter got iPad 2021. She is logged in to the device with her own AppleID. I have enabled "Ask to Buy" - however, I do not have another apple device. How can I approve "Ask to Buy" request on e.g. Android or Windows. Cheers, Lukasz

Sometimes signing out and back in again clears up odd issues.
