iCloud Storage
I've added my husband to iCloud Family, but it doesn't show him sharing my iCloud storage. I am paying for 200GB storage and I wanted him to be able to share it. How do I add my husband to my iCloud Storage?

That isn't what sharing a storage plan allows. See the following from Share an iCloud storage plan with your family - Apple Support
When you share a storage plan, your photos and documents stay private and everyone keeps using their own accounts with iCloud—just like when you have your own storage plan. You simply share the space available in the iCloud storage plan with your family members, so you only have one plan to manage.
You can share selected things the same way as if you were not sharing a storage plan. For example, Family Sharing creates a shared photo album but you need to manually move those photos that you want to share. To share iCloud Drive files, see: Share folders with iCloud Drive - Apple Support

I can see that I now share the storage capacity I pay for in iCloud Storage, but he can't see my files, and that's one of the reasons I wanted to add him to the app. How can I allow him to see what's in my iCloud Storage and vice-versa?
