Changing iTunes and App Store Apple ID

Hi,

I use my own Apple ID on my iPhone, but share my wife's for the iTunes and App Store.

I have very few purchases so am not worried about losing those, but if I move over to using my ID for the App Store will I have to re-download all Apps currently on my iPhone or will they remain?

Thanks,

Ed

The apps will remain, but you won't be able to update them. You could set up Family Sharing to be able to use/update the purchases made while using your wife's ID.

Family Sharing.

Family Sharing - Set up.
