Why isn’t Minecraft allowing family sharing? We are fully set up for family sharing. My husbands App Store is still requesting him to pay $6.99 for the app. I (the wife) already purchased it on my Apple account. Why isn’t this showing free for him?
I have checked all settings numerous times. Everything looks to be setup correctly and the app allows family sharing.

Hi there cora156,
You've come to the right place for help. From what we can tell, you purchased Minecraft and your husband is being prompted to pay for the app, even though he is a member of the Family Sharing group. If we've got that right, he will want to start by making sure he's signed in with the correct Apple ID and purchase sharing is turned on. He will also want to make sure that he's signed in to Media & Purchases with the same Apple ID that he uses for purchase sharing and iCloud. Check out the link below to learn exactly what steps to take to be sure he is able to access shared content:
If you don't see your family's shared content
Cheers!
