We have all been using one Apple ID without family sharing. How do we each set up our own Apple ID in order to do family sharing ?
iPhone XR
If under 13 years old, you will need to set up Family Sharing to create an ID.

When changing to the new ID, there may be some data loss, but you can minimize it. If syncing photos with iCloud, ensure Optimization is turned off in Settings/Your Name/iCloud/Photos and/or in Photos/Preferences/iCloud. Then make sure full resolution photos are on the device/computer. When signing out of iCloud, if asked whether you want to retain data, choose yes. Messages conversations will be lost if they are addressed to the ID. See the article below for other places that the old ID should be removed. See Winston Churchill's response in the below discussion. Also set up Family Sharing between the IDs to keep access to your apps/purchases.

I have been trying for days now to share my account with a family member. He has an Android phone and although I can invite him, and he receives the invitation, the invitation merely takes him to a site where he can buy his own subscription. Feel like this is a glitch but if anyone has any ideas please share them.
