    Unable to download game pass age restricted content on Xbox App


    I do not have family settings enabled, yet after a recent update the Xbox app is no longer allowing me to download age restricted content. Not sure what could have gone wrong. What are the best places to look and see if something got turned on accidentally?

    :)

    Hi Muhsin, 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.

    Do you currently have a Game Pass subscription on your account?

    You need to have one for online play.

    Please, access your subscription page and check the status:

    https://account.microsoft.com/services/

    If you don't have one, you can subscribe here: https://www.xbox.com/xbox-game-pass/core

    The other possibility is Age Restriction, are you using a child's account.

    If you are, ask your Family Organizer to grant you access to the game.

    Please, follow these steps:

    Open the Xbox Family Settings app on your mobile device, and then go to Settings.

    Select Content restrictions, and then under Apply age filters change the age limit.

    Any content that has a higher rating than the selected restriction needs an organizer’s approval.

    If I remove my son from the family account so he doesn’t have any restrictions will this affect him being able to use the Xbox account use

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

    If he is receiving subscription-sharing via the family, he will lose access to it.

    The Family Organizer can configure it accordingly, so you don't need to remove the account.

    Please, follow these steps:

    Open the Xbox Family Settings app on your mobile device, and then go to Settings.

    Select Content restrictions, and then under Apply age filters change the age limit that you want to apply to the member’s games, apps, and other content.

    Game Pass App for PC is age locking me from installing a game despite there being no content restrictions for my xbox live account.

    Hey I followed the steps below and everything is set to allow. The Widows store and the Game Pass App on my phone are not applying this age restriction only the Game pass on PC is.
    Thanks
