family organiser for children.

I am the family organiser. I have request to buy on my phone set up for my children. When my child requests to download an app I don’t seem to get a notification of this. How do I do it.

Ask to buy is no longer sending me (family organizer) requests from my children (ages 10-15)? I added my husband as a "parent" and it will send the request to him but he hates it and isn't tech friendly so it's not optimal to have this going to him. How do I get it to send the requests to me again? I tried removing my husband as "parent" but all that does is make it so request to buy sends no requests to anyone and my children can't download anything.

If my daughter tries to download an app, why don't I get the notification as the organizer? Hi, I'm the organizer of my family. I have a child account for my daugther with "ask to buy" enabled. I also have my girlfriend who is setup as a patent/guardian. If my daughter tries to download an app from the app store on any of her devices, only my gf gets the notification to approve the download. Why don't I get this as the organizer?

Family sharing-Ask to purchase not working Looks like there was a thread regarding this question from years ago that no one ever answered. I have family sharing for my daughter's phone and I am supposed to get some sort of message when she "asks to purchase" something, but I receive nothing. We cannot proceed with actually downloading apps as a result unless I turn off the family sharing (which I'm not willing to do). Is there a solution to this?
