Samsung Galaxy tablet help!

Okay, I am a complete Luddite.

My DS aged 10 saved up his christmas and birthday money and bought himself a Samsung galaxy tablet.

His gmail account is registered to this device.

I set up a family link so that I have control over the device in my own gmail account- but on my laptop.

I am trying to allow him to download an app which is paid for. It says that you have to go into your google play apps and your familylibrary etc. I am trying, but because it is on his device, it seems that he cannot log out and I log in to have my account registered to that device (if that makes sense?).

I am massively confused. He is distraught. Our Saturday monring is not going well!

I have to say- i do not have any fancy phones and only an old laptop so I really do not have alot of expertise. I have googled how to do it, and youtubed it but it seems because he is on a supervision lock I cannot overrride it on his actual device.

Not sure any of that makes sense.....

You can log into your family link gmail from any device, not his and change the settings.
