7 hours ago

Adults in the UK must confirm they are 18 or older to use certain Apple Account services or features via credit card, driver's license, or approved PASS-accredited cards.
Children under 13 in the UK cannot create an Apple Account alone; they require parental consent and must be part of a Family Sharing group.
Web Content Filter and Communication Safety are automatically enabled for kids, teens, and adults who have not confirmed their age.
