Not getting to games

Jump to Best Response

Hello,

So i have a stadia pro account and my cousin made a normal stadia account (not pro). I added him to the family group and everything worked out with that.

Now when he logs in with his account he gets stuck at the screen where he can try the 1 month pro version for free, but he can't skip that step to play the games I share with my family members. (He's not getting to any games at all)

I have two other family members added and everything works fine there.

What are we missing or what can we do?

Here's a screenshot from the mobile app. It's the same when logging in at the chrome browser.

Thanks in advance

Hey @Theblaxmith,

There are two options now that your cousin has: Either accepting the free trial and cancel directly afterwards (to not be charged after that month) or skip the free trial by opening a specific game that allows to be played for free.

Here a bit more in detail:

  1. The free trial is nothing bad, you could just sign up to it and directly after it you can cancel it again, this way you can enjoy Stadia Pro as long as the free trial lasts and you'll not get charged afterwards.
  2. If you want to skip it though, I heard that for some people it was possible to bypass the sign-up for the free trial, but clicking on the "play game" button on this site: https://stadia.google.com/games/destiny-2

Hope this helps.

Tried your second solution with the destiny 2 option, worked absolutely perfect!

Thanks for the fast and food help!

Well other question, since there's no way that's the official way to do it and I came upon this problem again;

Is there going to be a fix for that?

It would be so nice to just add a family member and start playing, rather than trying to make it work for like 30min by searching a link to skip a quite **bleep**ty bug like that?
