[QUOTE="IWT, post: 1808030, member: 83420"] @TonyN A warm welcome to Mac-Forums. I don't have these apps (not in my second childhood yet, despite what my wife says); but researching these on the web, it pretty clearly indicates that a live internet access is required, either directly or by implication. That being so, you cannot in all reason, insist on a refund nor blame Apple. As our Moderator said above, you can test the need for internet access very easily. I don't mean to pry, but when you say your grandson is too young to understand or use internet access, is your primary concern that he might inadvertently come across unsuitable material; or are you saying that the internet is too "complicated" for him. If the former, then a grownup can supervise and you could invoke parental controls on internet access. If the latter, then it shouldn't be a problem because if he can learn basic coding through a game and play Super Mario Run as a game, the presence or absence of an internet connection (which an adult sets up) is a total irrelevance to him - it simply works!
