Add new family member greyed out

I’m trying to add a new family member (child) to my family group and the add member icon is greyed out. It also won’t let me remove old family members

If an app or feature on your device is not working, not appearing, or is restricted (grayed out), a frequent reason is it may have been disabled using Screen Time, or by an IT administrator if you are using a device owned by an employer or educational institution.

- Read this support article If your Apple ID or other options are greyed out in Settings —> If your Apple Account is grayed out in Settings - Apple Support


Tap your Settings app > Screen Time > Content & Privacy > scroll to Allow Changes and turn on.


- If the device is managed (Settings > General > VPN & Device Management), contact the IT department that is doing the managing.
