We are trying to share a subscription to the Calm App within our family, but while it appears that the Calm app is eligible for "Family Sharing,' it also says that "in-app purchases can't be shared with family members." How does this make sense? You cannot use the Calm app unless you purchase a subscription. Is there a way to share an annual subscription within families?

Hey there ECoeSullivan,
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities. I understand you’d like to know if you can share an in-app purchase with your Family Sharing group. I’ll be happy to help with this.
In-app purchases cannot be shared with members of your Family Sharing group. Take a look at this article for more details on what you can and cannot share:
What types of content can I share with my family using purchase sharing?
I hope this clears this up for you.
Take care.
