I am not receiving Ask to Buy notifications

I am not receiving Ask to buy notifications on my iPhone 14 pro from my son. The notifications are coming to my MacBook only. I already verified that my Apple ID matches and I turned on family sharing and I still am not getting the notifications.

iPhone 14 Pro, iOS 16

Make sure you haven't disabled notifications.


Sometimes it helps to have the devices involved take a fresh look at settings:

- Try signing out of accounts and back in again.

- Restarting is a simple step that can resolve many unexpected behaviors.


If a problem persists, particularly over several days, try contacting Apple for assistance:


Click here --> Choose your country or region - Official Apple Support Select your country, then a product. If you don't see one that handles your issue then keep experimenting with selections until you reach one that gets you a chat session or a telephone call and get the representative to redirect you.
