iPad iPad 11th Gen + My Devices

[Danorak81]

Hi all,

I have AC+ on several devices at home. This Christmas, we bought an iPad for our children, 7 & 10. We also use Apple One, so I created an Apple ID for my eldest in settings, and went through all the verification process etc., and used my phone to set it up for a child (the iPhone asked me if the device was for me or her).

Everything is now set up and running, however, when I go to 'My Devices' in settings, the iPad doesn't show up. Now, I figure this is because technically, the iPad was set up using my daughters newly created Apple ID and not my ID, and I can see it in 'Find My'-but thought it'd show in My Devices as it was set up using my iPhone.

Is there a way to get the iPad to display in my devices or is that now not possible? I think I know the answer, but I just wanted to check...

TIA!
Dan

I’ve got my daughter and wife etc set up under family sharing and you can see them under the devices tab on the find my app. My daughters devices don’t show under the settings either just my own devices that I’ve logged in with.

I did suspect that might be the case. Thanks for confirming!
