Hello dchleong,


Thank you for reaching out in Apple Support Communities. It sounds like you'd like to download a purchased app that was initially downloaded on your child's device within Family Sharing. We can help point you in the right direction.


To download the app on your personal device, which was initially downloaded from a family member, you can follow the steps outlined here: Share App Store, iTunes Store, and Apple Books purchases with Family Sharing Specifically the section that says, "How to download previous purchases from family members."


If we misunderstood, please provide us additional details. That way we can gain a better understanding and provide you the best support.


Best regards.
