Apple Arcade Multiplayer issue

My child (9) downloaded the TMNT game. He can play single player but when we try playing together it says he has screen time restrictions that don’t allow multiplayer. Asks for Organizer to change settings. Everything on screen time indicates he’s good to play, however it doesn’t allow him to. If I turn off screen time it does work. What do I do?

Game Centre multiplayer restrictions. There are big issues with content restrictions for Game Centre and Apple Arcade games. It doesn’t matter what settings I seem to change in screen time for my kids, they cannot play multiplayer. Despite allowing everything and putting everything to their highest settings, the online play for games like Disney Melee Mania won’t work. It does work if I remove content restrictions entirely, but that is not a viable solution. What’s the point in paying for Apple Arcade for the kids if so many games won’t work online? Am I missing something!?

Game centre and Restrictions Hi, I have screen time installed on my kid’s iPad (child account). Under Settings > Screen Time > Content & Privacy Restrictions > Content Restrictions I have set Multiplayer Games and Adding Friends to Allow. However she can’t access multiplayer (specifically in Lego Brawls on Apple Arcade). I get the message Multiplayer features are disabled. Enable from Game Center. The only way is to entirely disable content restrictions which I don’t feel comfortable doing. Is there a way to enable restrictions but allow game centre?

Game Center & Screentime bug I have the same problem as Game Center and Screen Time restrictions - Apple Community It's a BUG. Do not reply with the instructions on how to set up Screentime. If you have Screentime on and set Multiplayer Games to "Allow with Everyone", it doesn't work with many games including Lego Games & Pac-Man Party. (Is it only Apple Arcade games?) Each game will say that your screentime settings are set to not allow Multiplayer Games but this is incorrect. The support teams for the games themselves are useless. Please fix this BUG to allow parents to have Screentime on and allow their kids to play ALL multiplayer games with Allow with Everyone on.
