      My daughter has a new tablet so I set it up with Google's default family management application (Family Link).

       

      As an adult, I can start a game fine. On the child account it hits the "problem creating world" issue, pretty much a carbon copy of this bug (the solution doesn't work though):

      The relevant permissions (contacts,  storage) are enabled on the child account, and I've also turned them on from family link. I've tried numerous variations of uninstallling, wiping data etc. I was also careful to only purchase minecraft after setting up the family account first etc. 

       

      The workaround is to let my daughter play from my account but clearly that's pretty rubbish as I can't control screen time etc. 

       

      If it helps I work as an android developer so can hook the app up to a debugger (I've not done this yet).
