    Enable Minecraft Realms on Microsoft Family


    My son plays Minecraft on an iPad.

    He wants to play Minecraft with a friend online. Minecraft have a product for exactly this: Minecraft Realms.

    I've signed up for Realms myself and I am paying.

    But he can't access it. Minecraft says something to the effect "multiplayer" needs to be enabled in XBox.

    I signed him up to an XBox live account

    I signed up to an XBox live account

    I made him a family members

    With some effort I can even find the options page.

    But there is nothing there that looks remotely like "Enable multiplayer Minecraft realms."

    How does one do this?

    I'm looking at the Microsoft family page (Sign in to your Microsoft account). There is nothing under Acitity or Content Restrictions.

    Is an Xbox account the same as an Microsoft Account?

    - I can't find any "family" options in XBox, it reverts to Microsoft when I hunt

    - to be honest the XBox account page is just a blizzard of menu options

    :)

    Child account can't sign into Minecraft Realms

    The children show up in Microsoft Family but not on XBox.com so the settings can't be changed so that they can access Minecraft Realms.

    how to add child to xbox live without a console so that minecraft realms work?

    We're trying to use Minecraft PE to connect to a realm. The child account was created from Minecraft PE on iOS, the account appears under the parent Microsoft account family, but does not appear under the Parent Xbox Live family.

    The child was successfully invited to a realm created by the parent, but when the child tries to connect, gets the message "You cannot play on Realms because of how your Xbox Live account is set up. This can be changed in your privacy & online safety settings
    on Xbox.com".

    However, the child can't change those settings, the parent needs to, but the parent can only change them from the Xbox account view (where, in this case, the child does not show up).

    We do not have an Xbox console. We just want to play MInecraft with family and friends on a realm.

    Microsoft support says there's no way to add the child without an Xbox console. I wonder why Minecraft PE walked us through creating a child account in the first place?
