Apple iOS "confirmed" age signals are now accepted

k-ID now accepts Apple's confirmed declaration type as a verified platform age signal for players on iOS 26.5 and later.

What's new

  • confirmed is a verified Apple declaration type. Starting in iOS 26.5, Apple's Age Range Service returns only selfDeclared, guardianDeclared, or confirmed, where confirmed means the age range was set using a scrutinized method such as a credit card or government ID. k-ID treats confirmed as verified, so it can suppress the age gate, satisfy verification thresholds, and record an ageVerification.
  • Deprecated types still work. Apple deprecated paymentChecked, governmentIDChecked, guardianPaymentChecked, and guardianGovernmentIDChecked. k-ID continues to accept these for backwards compatibility, so signals from earlier iOS versions are unaffected.
  • selfDeclared and guardianDeclared remain unverified. They don't bypass age verification requirements.
