How to approve child's iPhone appstore request using Android device?

I have an Android mobile, and an Apple account, which I was using with an old iphone many years ago. I still receive icloud mails to my Android.

Now I bought an iPhone for my kid, and created a family account for him, linked to my Apple account (the one above). But the approval requests do not come as a mail.

How can I approve an appstore request for my child using an Android device? Any way to forward the request to mail, or some web interface?

Very inconvenient, particularly one of the reasons I avoid Apples myself. But thank you for the answer.

We understand, HaleJP. If you’d like, you can let Apple know you’d like to be able to use Family Sharing with your Android phone.

Hey HaleJP,

It would only be possible to approve Ask To Buy request using an Apple device.

You can learn more about that here: Approve what kids buy with Ask to Buy - Apple Support

Thanks!
