    How to enable multiplayer on an account from family settings

    Hi and thanks for reaching Microsoft Xbox gamer's community. My name is Josef.
    I'm an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft Xbox user like you.

    Hope you're doing great today Jake

    If you already have all your privacy settings enabled:
    https://account.xbox.com/Settings

    Minecraft Java Edition requires an extra config to play as usual multiplayer.

    According to official FAQ:
    "The minimum age for a standard account is thirteen. Children under that age need parental consent to access specific features, as required by law. To give parental consent to access these features, including Realms, you must enter payment information, which must be validated with a 10-cent charge. Currently, this is the only method to limit permissions for a child’s account on Minecraft Java."

    That should do the trick on the child account.

    If you have further questions feel free to ask, greetings from another Microsoft user!

    why is my invite button on minecraft gray and I signed in multiple times

    Hi Joey, my name is Rodrigo. I'm an Independent Advisor and a member of the Microsoft community and I'd love to assist you today.

    I am sorry to hear that.

    Please verify if your multiplayer settings is enabled on your account.

    You can enable the multiplayer for Minecraft from the Xbox Family Settings app on your mobile device.

    In the Xbox Family Settings app:

    Go to Settings > In Enable Minecraft > Select Allow this game.

    Turn on Multiplayer to let a member play online with others

    Enable Clubs so that a member can create and join Minecraft Realms servers.

    To download the Family App: https://www.xbox.com/apps/family-settings-app

    I hope this helps.

    Not old enough?

    Is there a family settings enabled? Try disabling it from the Settings, Account and then Family settings

    Child cannot access Minecraft multiplayer even though we have allowed it in the settings

    Thanks for finding the page.

    I wonder how this plays into the following:

    https://help.minecraft.net/hc/en-us/articles/4408968616077

    FAMILY GROUP MULTIPLAYER FEATURES

    3. If Minecraft is rated above a member's age limit, enable Allow gameplay under Enable Minecraft to grant the member and exception to play it.

    • Enable Multiplayer to let a member play Minecraft with others online, even if their account settings block them from multiplayer features.

    We've set the multiplayer as "allow", and the page says this should override age restrictions, but multiplayer just remains grayed out and when hovering over it it tells us to check our microsoft account settings... which we have. :(

    Sorry this issue is such a mess.
