    How to: Child Account Set up to Enable Join Multiplayer Games


    Before I start: sorry for my unclear English, I will try to explain my concern by editing the question, if necessary.

    I have a private Microsoft account and a connected XBOX-account. I also have a child, which is part of my family in the Microsoft world.

    Our purpose is that the child can play Minecraft with friends (multiplayer). He is using the Minecraft App for Android only.

    I have read some instructions for family managing in microsoft and how to be able to join multiplayer games and finally about the option to use Minecraft as multiplayer game in a local network.

    Now I have two questions:

    1. How can I set up family settings in the XBOX management browser-app/tool? I cannot find the right place to do this, do I really need a native, mobile App in order to do this? The linked descriptions are not very telling in this regard.
    2. Is this local network multiplay thing possible with Minecraft Android Apps at all?

    :)

    Hi Malte, I hope you're doing great despite the issue you're experiencing. I am an Independent advisor and I am here to help you in regard to your concern.

    Let me guide you. Kindly sign in to https://account.microsoft.com/family using your Microsoft account and then add your child as a member from there. Once confirmed, you may proceed to https://account.xbox.com/settings, you should see your child's Gamertag from there please click that and allow the setting on this screenshot that has an arrow.

    Yes, it is possible to play the game local multiplayer.

    Hi,

    You will receive an error about privacy settings when joining Xbox Live Parties if your account settings are not set up correctly or you are using a child account. If you are using a child account, you will need a parent account's permission to change the
    privacy and online safety settings so you can join Xbox Live Parties and multiplayer games.

    To better assist you with your concern, please provide the following information:

    • Are you using a child account? To check, you can log in to this
      link       with your Microsoft Account.
    • Are you able to play multiplayer games online using the same account?

    You can also contact Xbox Chat Support on this
    link     to securely verify your account and check if there is a parent account attached to it.

    I am not using a child account and cannot join multiplayer online games.
    Thank you for your response. To resolve your concern, please make sure that you enable the settings to allow your profile to play multiplayer games online by following the steps on this

    link    .

    If you need further assistance, feel free to reply to this post anytime.
