Family share request to approve App only shown on MacBook not iPhone

I am using the same Apple ID on both my iPhone and MacBook.

My 2 children are under the Family share with App Purchase request enabled.

When they request an App paid or free... the request to approve only shows on my MacBook and not my iPhone.


Help please 😉

iPhone 6 Plus, iOS 10.3.2

Be certain you have set up Notification Center on your iPhone to display the request.
