Minecraft multiplayer on ipad

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 despite this MDL_959

If I understood well, one child is able to join to the world but the other is not capable to do it?

And, are you able to test if the child with the problem is capable to join to another worlds online? This helps us to isolate a bit more the issue

First, multiplayer and all online functionalities required to this are enabled for your child? (the one with the problem)

By the way, Minecraft is up to date in the iPad?

Josef,

Do you have any other recommendations?

Thanks

tried all these steps and they were unsuccessful

Thanks mate, please try this in the affected child account:

Sign out from the Microsoft account inside Minecraft, then delete the app (don't forget to backup local worlds)

After that please disable all privacy features

https://account.xbox.com/Settings

Wait 5 minutes and enable everything again

After that delete the other child as friend in the Xbox Live network (do this with the other account), install Minecraft again, sign in and add both accounts as friend again and give it a new try

One child hosts the multiplayer world the other child cannot join that world, while on the same WiFi network. A friend of the hosting child CAN join the world via internet connection from a totally different home. I've already verified they can join mutiplayer games via parental controls.
