How much space can be shared under Family Sharing in iCloud?

Hi.


I use 2TB Space on iCloud and have Family sharing turned on. Had a few quick questions:


  1. Whats the maximum space that I can share with family members out of that 2 TB? I saw wife automatically got 5-6ish GB but she needs more. How do I make it happen?
  2. If I am the primary user does this automatically give me access to their iCloud storage that they share from me?
  3. If I share an album with one of my family members does the shared album take additional space at their allotted quota? Or are they just able to view/edit the source album in my iCloud?


The questions may be basic, sorry, I am a new user and trying to find my way.


Thanks!

All users in the family can share that 2TB. There are no limits to what a single user can take. User's cannot see another user's content.


If you are using AppleOne you can actually increase total storage for one user to 4 TB byt the user having an individual plan in addition to being part of a family plan.
