Hello lolomah,
Thank you for using the Apple Support Communities. I understand you have a question about using Family Sharing.
It sounds like you have Family Sharing configured correctly since the other users are able to see your media content. The other users in your Family Sharing group should be able to access your purchased apps by opening the App Store first. Then, they'd tap the "person" icon or your photo in the top-right corner, and then tap Purchased. From there, they should be able to download any eligible shared apps: Share App Store, iTunes Store, and Apple Books purchases with Family Sharing.
If they're still not seeing your App Store purchases, I recommend working through this article next. This covers a number of possible reasons they may not be seeing your apps for download: If you don't see your family's shared content.
Hopefully this helps so your family members can share your apps.
Take care.
