Shop & Purchases
- Show the shop: turn off to hide the shop button and pearl offers. Pearls from achievements still work. Needs the parent PIN to change, if one is set.
- Restore purchases
- Codes: redeem a Tide Keep promo code or an App Store code.
See Shop & Purchases.
Parents
Set a parent PIN to choose a four-digit PIN. Kids play freely, but these need the PIN:
- Every real-money purchase
- Redeeming an App Store code
- Emails from Help Us Improve
- Web pages, such as the Terms of Service and Privacy Policy
- Turning on online play
- Showing or hiding the shop
After three wrong tries, the keypad locks for five minutes. Use Change parent PIN or Turn off parent PIN to manage it; both ask for the current PIN.
Forgot the PIN
Deleting and reinstalling the game doesn't remove the PIN. To reset it:
- On the PIN keypad, tap Forgot PIN?.
- Confirm with Face ID, Touch ID or the device passcode.
- Tap Choose a New PIN and enter a new one twice, or tap Turn off parent PIN.
Only someone who can unlock the device can do this. If the PIN was asked for a purchase or a link, a reset doesn't approve it: try again with the new PIN. A device with no passcode can't reset the PIN; set a passcode in the iOS Settings app first.
