Please see the linked MCPE-120083 report for suggestions.

Unfortunately no solution in MCPE-120083. Neither the patch from MCPE-230429 has worked as it seems.

I am also having this problem with my kids account.

We also have two child accounts that are still unable to sign in on the Nintendo Switch Bedrock Edition. I just tried again and we are still getting the “drowned” error code. My adult account signs in fine. Thanks!
