Add device to family so can set security in minecraft

Hi righN,

Welcome to Microsoft Xbox Community Forum.



To clarify, have you already purchased Minecraft Bedrock Edition on your account? If so, have you made sure that your girlfriend's device is also connected to your Microsoft account through the Microsoft Store app?



If you have already purchased Minecraft Bedrock Edition on your account and your girlfriend's device is connected to your Microsoft account, then the issue may be related to the Family Sharing feature. Here are some possible causes and solutions:

1. Your girlfriend's device may not be set as a shared device. To check this, go to your Microsoft account settings and make sure that her device is listed as a shared device. If it is not, you can add it by clicking on "Add a device" and following the prompts.



2. Your girlfriend's account may not be set up as a family member. To check this, go to your Microsoft account settings and make sure that her account is listed as a family member. If it is not, you can add her by clicking on "Add a family member" and following the prompts.



3. There may be a delay in the Family Sharing feature. Sometimes it can take up to 24 hours for the feature to fully activate. If you have recently added your girlfriend's device or account to your family, try waiting a day and then attempting to download Minecraft Bedrock Edition again.



I hope this helps! Let me know how it goes.

Kind regards,
Marrion

Hey there Squirrely,

You should be able to
Add a Security Proof to help secure your account and then Set your console as a trusted device so that you can auto-login for that account.

Please let us know if you have any other support questions we can help with.

Hi,

Creating a family helps you manage privacy and online safety settings for children and teens on Xbox One, Windows 10, and Windows Phone 10.

Any adult in the family can add new members to the family. To add a family member, follow the steps on this page:
