Share subscriptions and iCloud storage with family members on iPad

When you’re in a Family Sharing group, you can share Apple subscriptions, an iCloud storage plan, and eligible App Store subscriptions with other family members.

Not all services are available in all countries or regions, and some selections are subject to content restrictions set in Screen Time.

Share Apple subscriptions and an iCloud storage plan

Go to Settings > [your name] > Family Sharing.
Tap a subscription, then follow the onscreen instructions to sign up.
See any of the following to learn more.
- Apple Arcade: See Get apps in the App Store on iPad. All members of your family can download and play Apple Arcade games from the App Store. Each player gets a personalized account—your progress is carried over between devices.
- Apple Fitness+: See All about Apple Fitness+ in the Apple Watch User Guide. All members of your family can access workouts in the Fitness app on their iPhone or iPad.
- Apple Music: See Subscribe to Apple Music on iPad. Each family member gets their own music library and personal recommendations.
- Apple News+: See Subscribe to Apple News+ on iPad. All members of your family can read Apple News+ publications for no additional charge.
- Apple TV+ and Apple TV channels: See Set up the Apple TV app on iPad. Each family member can watch on their iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, Mac, Apple TV, and supported smart TVs and streaming devices, using their own Apple ID and password.
- iCloud storage: See the Apple Support article Share an iCloud storage plan with your family. Your family can share an iCloud storage plan of 200 GB or more. When you share a storage plan, you simply share the available storage space. Your photos and documents stay private and everyone keeps using their own accounts with iCloud.

For information about combining your Apple subscriptions, see the Apple Support article Bundle Apple subscriptions with Apple One.

Share App Store subscriptions

You can choose which eligible App Store subscriptions you share with family members. For information about the App Store, see Get apps in the App Store on iPad.

Go to Settings > [your name] > Subscriptions.
Do either of the following:
- Share all new subscriptions: Turn on Share New Subscriptions. When you purchase a new subscription that’s eligible for sharing, it’s shared with your family members by default.
- Change the settings of a specific subscription: Tap a subscription, then turn Share with Family on or off.
  If you don’t see Share with Family, the subscription is not eligible for sharing.

To see which subscriptions you’re already sharing, go to Settings > [your name] > Family Sharing.

You can also share iTunes Store, App Store, Apple Books, and Apple TV purchases with family members. See Download family members’ purchases on iPad.
