    Hello mklc5209,

    I read your post, and it sounds as though you'd like to learn more about Family Sharing. I have linked to an article that will help you do that:

    Family Sharing

    All your family’s purchases, on all your family’s devices.

     

    Once you’ve set up Family Sharing, all the songs, albums, movies, TV shows, books, and apps ever purchased by family members are immediately available to everyone else in the group. And, of course, so are new purchases. The content appears automatically in the Purchased tab in iTunes, iBooks, or the App Store for each family member. Just select the family member whose collection you’d like to browse, then download or play the content you choose. Other family members can access your collection in the same way. If you want to keep some purchases private, you can choose to hide individual items.
