Cannot use some Galaxy AI features or Google Discover

When using some of the AI features in One UI 6.1, you may encounter a message or the app screen may turn white when attempting to use Galaxy AI features like Generative Wallpapers and Circle to Search, or Google Discover. These problems are due to an age restriction policy.

Cannot use some Galaxy AI features or Google Discover

Google age restriction policy

Due to a Google policy that restricts the use for anyone under 13 years old, you may encounter a message indicating that "Minors are not allowed to use this service," a message indicating the function isn't available, or the app screen may turn white when you try to use some Galaxy AI features or Google Discover.

Per Google's policy, account users under the age of 13 are restricted from using Circle to Search, Discover, and Generative Wallpaper. The age restriction may vary by country and is subject to change dependent upon Google policy updates.

Adults receiving the error

If you are an adult receiving the message, you will need to go through the age verification process. You can learn more about accessing age-restricted content and features on the Google support website.
