  • The Family Sharing organizer can add other group members by inviting them with their own Apple ID. Your sister will have to formally accept that invitation to be part of the group. The organizer can see the group details in his or her Settings.
  • To share an Apple Music subscription with the family group, you need to subscribe to the Apple Music Family subscription. The Individual or Student subscriptions do not qualify. The other members get access automatically, without subscribing themselves, by being part of the group.
  • To share an Apple Music subscription with the family group, the organizer must have turned Apple Music sharing on, as one of the sharing options.
  • All group members must have their Apple ID and device settings and iTunes Store settings for the same region or country. Changing the region to something different will sign a user out of the service.
  • Verify that the new member has Setting﹥Music﹥ to have Show Apple Music and iCloud Music Library active on their device.
