Hi everyone, I recently submitted the Family Controls request form and received the following request IDs: 429MKWT5VX
 KNL6T2DC7A
 N62KV78DKC However, I haven’t received any updates yet and I’m not sure how these requests are tracked or when we’ll know if they’re approved. Our app is almost ready to launch and this capability is critical for us. Both the main app and an extension depend on Family Controls, so we’re currently blocked from moving forward. I also raised a support ticket with Apple Developer Support (Case ID: 102838723073), but I haven’t received any response there either. To be honest, this is becoming really stressful. Months of work are stuck at the final step and we’re unable to move forward without this approval. This isn’t just a small personal project and we’re building a production app and were hoping to launch very soon. If anyone has been through this process or has any guidance on the approval timeline, or if someone from Apple could help look into these request IDs, it would genuinely mean a lot to us.

 Thank you

Hello, We recently resubmitted our Family Controls (Distribution) request with a much more detailed explanation after our previous declined. Our entire app (including an extension) depends on this capability, and right now we’re completely blocked from launching. Months of work are stuck at this final step and it’s honestly becoming very stressful with no visibility on the timeline. If anyone has experience with the approval timeline after resubmitting, or if someone from Apple could help look into it, it would truly mean a lot. 4C6XLQWZQY Y5JJ7GT6BP 3ZBSC333WU Thank you

Our team already has Family Controls (Distribution) entitlement approved for the main app and existing Screen Time extensions. We recently added a new Shield Configuration extension to show a custom on-device shield UI using ManagedSettingsUI. It is only used for UI rendering and does not collect or send any user data. However, the entitlement does not seem to be applied to this new extension yet, and we are blocked from proceeding with builds. We have already contacted support but haven’t received an update yet. Case ID: 102881099623 Could someone please help to apply/sync for the Family Controls distribution entitlement or guide us on the next steps? Happy to share app details privately if needed. Thanks.
