Sharing paid apps with family member
Why am I being charged for a Mac app even though I'm part of a family and a member already paid for it?

You need to get the app from the family member’s purchased list, not directly from the App Store entry.
Follow the steps in the link above to find the App in your family members purchases so you can download it from there for free.

How are you trying to get the app exactly? Are you going through your Family Members purchased list?

Note that most 3rd party subscriptions cannot be shared.
I checked the app's FAQ and it said it works for family sharing - Does Paprika support Family Sharing? – Paprika Support (zendesk.com).
When I tried to download the app it asks to "buy app". I haven't went clicked and confirmed the purchase because I don't want to be charged for it if the app allows app sharing.
I've also checked both accounts to ensure family sharing is enabled.
Thank you so much! I wasn't aware of this.
I keep learning something new every day. Thank you again!
