Multiple Iphones

I just replaced my iphone6 and my wife's flip phone with two iphone XR's. I have had an itunes acct for years. Can I use my existing itunes for both phones? I already opened a new appleID acct for my wife and now can't ad new aps to hers since itunes won't allow it because it is a new acct. Please help me. Dave (Gatorgetter 1)

If you are using your home computer iTunes account to download apps to iPhone, that no longer works. You now manage apps directly on each phone separately. Since you've had an account for years, you can use Family Sharing to let your wife use apps you've already downloaded or purchased.
