“Sorry, you do not meet the age requirement to use this app. Due to legal restrictions, this app is currently unavailable to minors.” error message

These restrictions are legally mandated, and not controlled by Philo.

Due to certain legislation, customers under 18 (or whose age is unknown) who attempt to access Philo may encounter an error message that reads: “Sorry, you do not meet the age requirement to use this app. Due to legal restrictions, this app is currently unavailable to minors.”

As of January 1, 2026, nationwide, customers under 18 who attempt to access Philo on an iOS device will be unable to use the app.
