How to manage Family Sharing from Windows or Android?

I no longer own an Apple device, but members of my family sharing group do. How do I change permissions on (or manage in general) Family Sharing from either Windows or Android? Is there a way to change the organizer to my husband who uses an iPhone?

Windows, Windows 10

Hello and welcome to Apple Support Communities, PurrOnYou.

If we understand your post correctly, you'd like to manage your Family Sharing group from a non-Apple device or change the family organizer to your husband. We’d like to help.


Managing your Family Sharing group without using an Apple device is limited. You can manage your Apple Music subscription with these steps:


Use Family Sharing with Apple Music on Android


You mentioned changing the organizer to your husband. There is not a way to change the organizer of a Family Sharing group. He'll need to form a new Family Sharing group and members will need join the new one. These articles can help with that process:


Set up Family Sharing


Leave Family Sharing


Let us know if that resolves this issue for you.
