We’ve got one for DS but haven’t got the subscription on his profile as he was just mindlessly opening and closing apps and not actually using any of them.
bevause of this we have selected some apps and added them manually. I want to pay to subscribe to a couple for when we go on holiday but even with store access and in app purchase requests toggled on, when I try it says the feature is blocked in kids profiles?!

it’s driving me mad and Amazon are no help they just keep sending me the same paragraph which doesn’t answer my question.

Sounds like you're trying to do it through his profile? You have to do it through yours - the iPad should have an adult profile for you on too when you set it up, probably with a pin for security

You have to pay for kids+ or something like that to get the children’s profile it’s better to just give them that or they’ve got access to all sorts on the adult profile with no restrictions

You need to throw it in the bin and get an iPad. The most frustrating device I've come across through two kids.

Yeah iPads are more straight forward and the kindle hasn’t really got much on it but the AppStore has everything. I don’t have children but I got a kindle on the sale for my then 7 year old sister about 2 years ago and I think it’s rubbish to be honest Ive got it back but I just occasionally use it for books now
