What if only my kids have an apple product?

How do I approve app download requests, make changes to family sharing, etc. if, as a parent, I do not own an apple product?

It can be done using one device, but it is a bit more difficult using only one device. On the device, sign out of the child's Apple ID in Settings/Your Name, then sign in with your Apple ID, and do the required action. Sign out of your ID and sign in with the child's ID. Swap Settings/Your Name  in as required.
