    Xbox One Custom Gamerpic Issue


    After Microsoft recently rolled out the new option for everyone with an adult account to upload custom gamerpics and set them as their gamerpics after being approved, I was very excited, however after repeated attempts, I was met repeatedly with a message
    saying I must be older to set a custom gamerpic. When my account was first created a year or 2 ago, it was accidentally set as a child account at the age of 15-16. After chatting with an Xbox Support Agent who was very friendly, I was told that even though
    my account had been fixed awhile back and is now an adult account with the proper age, the system recognizes it as the original and that I would simply have to wait out the 2-3 years for it to naturally graduate what it thought was a child account to an adult
    account. Is there anyway Microsoft/Xbox that you could improve and or fix this in the system. It is very upsetting and disheartening that a feature I have been waiting quite awhile for is finally out but I can't use it for years on end due to the system recognizing
    the wrong details in my account. If possible, please respond asap. A loyal Xbox gamer and fan, Bryce.

    :)

    Custom gamerpic issue

    Hi,

    Issues changing your gamer picture on Xbox app may be due to several reasons. It is possible that your account was registered as child account.

    To check if your account information is accurate, kindly sign in to
    Microsoft Account website
    and see the details under Your info.

    You can also change your privacy and online safety settings by following the steps on this link: online safety and privacy settings.

    If your account needs further verification, we strongly recommend that you contact
    Xbox Chat Support for security purposes.

    Should you have any other queries, feel free to contact us anytime.

    one thing I have found that may be useful in this situation...

    There is a difference in adult content settings and an actual adult account.

    Anyone can say they are any age by putting in any birthdate.

    The only way Xbox can actually verify that you are actually an adult is if you have
    a credit card that is in your name associated with your account.

    Once a birthdate has been entered on an account it can not be changed.

    If the birthdate on your account means that you are under the age of 18 then there is nothing you can do.Changing it to "adult" will not make any difference.

    Adding a credit card wont make any difference anyway.

    Your only option is to wait until the account age turns 18.

    Gamerpic

    The custom gamerpic feature is currently not available on the new Xbox app. Currently, the only way to change to a custom gamerpic, is using the Xbox One console.

    pfp

    Download the Xbox app, then launch it, select your gamerpic in the top right corner of the app, and select view profile, then select your gamerpic from your profile, and then you can change your gamerpic on there. Bear in mind, custom gamerpics are not
    supported on the app at this time. Only the Xbox One console currently supports custom gamerpics.

    Hello Nikolaj,

    Thank you for posting here on the Xbox forums. We understand that you are having issues with uploading a custom gamerpic. If you haven't already, please review this support article: Change
    your Xbox One gamerpic


    There is a video showing you how to do it there. Please keep in mind that child accounts are not able to upload custom gamer pics. There is no way around this.
