I've updated to latest version 5.15.2 on IOS today.
An adult sister was able to adopt an infant after they became good friends, they are now mom and daughter :D.

Edit: Just did the same thing on Android.
An adult with no relations to the infant was able do adobt.

In both cases the sims were housemates, I don't know yet if that will mean anything.
Great news!

Have you started or finished the Quest already?
In my second town on an android phone, I haven't started the Quest, yet. The option to adopt an infant only shows up, if adult and infant are good friends.
In the past the option showed up as "Ask to adopt", and this happend with the same movements like "Entertain". Now the option shows up as "Adopt" and works instantly.

I've finished the Quest.
Just brought babies with a sim in both games to another family in town, put them in a crib there, made them good friends with an adult in the new household ... and success :D - The babies were adopted :D after tapping the option.
The baby disappears after the adoption. Just tap the baby in the simtracker, and it's in the crib.

It's weird that the game makes a different at housemates/not housemates.
But hey, so many orphans will have real families with mom and dad again :D

There is no difference, it works whether the sims and infants are housemates or not, and if they are siblings or not :).
Got some sorting to do now :lol:.

Where are you located? They wrote on FB that some countries (including US) would get it in the App Store with a delay.

That explains it--I'm in the U.S. As long as I get it eventually! :)
