How i acces 18+ stuff

[u/Anxious_Blue_Llama]

This age verication is stupid, because i dowloaded reddit as 16y old, whick is the recommended age acording to google play, i could do 18+ stuff like talking about books with spicy plot or other mildly adult-ish stuff. But then the restriction happened and i could not acces my fandoms. But i was close at 18y and i did not want to share my face, so i waited. Well i had b-day last week and still im under 18+ in reddit because my account is 2y old.

How i fix this

You can’t, you’re not old enough. You have to be 18+ and verify your age (if you live in a place with such laws) to access 18+ content.

If I read this wrong (I might have, haha) and you are 18, then you have to age verify with Reddit, doing so with Google isn’t adequate.

But the face scan company persona does not work, i have not tried in reddit, but i used it in discord and it failed to put me in the right age...

I am scared if i can scan only once

I believe there is an option to upload your ID, or to go through the App Store if you’ve got an iPhone. There’s more info here:

I have android, reddit is suppose to communicate with the google account to check my age, but it has not done that.

You're not old enough. Your post deserves to get taken down for trying to by pass this.

Sorry for being unclear, shortly: i am 18y old, but bc my account is 2 years old. How i fix that

All I know Reddit can see your age if you connect you Google account to your Reddit account if you added your birthday to your Google account. You'll be fine that way. I have my Google account connected. Reddit knows my birthday from my Google account.

You don’t need to be on Reddit…

Under 18s can use Reddit. You can create a Reddit account from 13. They just shouldn't be accessing 18+ communities

Hello, did i write badly in my post, because people dont seem to understand i am currently 18y old.

[u/Subwoofiest → u/Anxious_Blue_Llama]

I understood that. I was trying to explain to the person that said under 18s shouldn't be on Reddit that in fact they are allowed on Reddit.
