Multiple Apple ID on one device

Hello,

I know that I cannot merge two accounts into one. Is it possible to have two Apple ID's on the same device? I have an iPad Pro and an older iPad. The older iPad is starting to have issues.

I would like to have both accounts on my iPad Pro. Is that possible? Family sharing will only allow me access to the apps themselves, not the added plugins that I bought for them. Will I have to re-purchase the plugins for some of my apps?

Thank you.

iPad mini, iOS 12

You can't have 2 IDs on one device like you can have 2 user accounts on a computer. Devices are by design single user only. You can have 2 IDs using one for iCloud and one for the App Store/iTunes for example.

In app purchases can't be shared.
