Apple Arcade could use an ‘always allow’ feature that’s separate from App Store

A writer argues Apple should add a separate parental permission for Apple Arcade downloads.

The idea is an Apple Arcade-specific “always allow” setting, distinct from App Store Ask to Buy.

Because Arcade games are curated, ad-free, and free of in-app purchases, the author says repeated approval is unnecessary.

A dedicated setting could reduce friction for families while keeping tighter controls for regular App Store apps and purchases.
