DeclaredAgeRange.requestAgeRange returns .notAvailable despite Family‑Sharing child account (iOS 26.2, Xcode 26.2)
Hello — I’m integrating DeclaredAgeRange to check >=18 at app registration, but the API keeps returning AgeRangeService.Error.notAvailable. I’ve tried family sharing and sandbox age settings without success. Below is a minimal environment, the exact code I call, my concise questions, and the expected behaviour. I can attach Console logs and screenshots if helpful. Environment Xcode: 26.2 Device OS: iOS 26.2 on real device Capabilities: Declared Age Range capability enabled in Xcode entitlements Framework integration: DeclaredAgeRange framework imported/linked in the project App compiled and installed from Xcode using development provisioning profile Device main Apple ID: I attempted both (a) Family‑Sharing child account logged in as device main Apple ID and (b) sandbox App Store account age settings via Settings → App Store → Sandbox Account → Manage → Age Verification Minimal code I if #available(iOS 26.2, *) { #if canImport(DeclaredAgeRange) do { let response = try await AgeRangeService.shared.requestAgeRange(ageGates: 18, in: self) switch response { case let .sharing(range): // handle range case .declinedSharing: // handle declined @unknown default: // handle unknown } } catch let err as AgeRangeService.Error { if case .notAvailable = err { print("AgeRange notAvailable") } else { print("AgeRange other error: \(err)") } } catch { print("AgeRange generic error: \(error)") } #endif } Key questions (please answer briefly) Must the device main Apple ID be a Family‑Sharing child account (created/managed by a parent) for DeclaredAgeRange to ever return .sharing? Or can the App Store “Sandbox Account → Age Verification” produce a shareable result for this API? If the device main Apple ID must be a family child account, is there any Apple-side flag/setting (server-side) that Apple support must enable for that Apple ID to be eligible for age sharing? Does App Store Connect / app metadata / age rating or entitlements require any special setting for DeclaredAgeRange to work in the sandbox/dev environment? Are there known region/locale constraints (e.g., device region must be US) that commonly cause .notAvailable? What Console/system logs should I capture and attach to help determine whether the request reaches Apple backend vs. is blocked locally? (exact log names/filters welcome) Is there a canonical sandbox test flow doc for family/parent flows DeclaredAgeRange that guarantees a working test sequence?
