Turn off purchase sharing

  • On your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, tap Settings > [Tapy Your Name] > Family Sharing > Purchase Sharing > Stop Purchase Sharing.


If you're the family organizer and you don't want to share a payment method with your family, turn off purchase sharing. When purchase sharing is turned off, you can continue to share subscriptions like Apple TV+ and Apple Arcade. When Purchase Sharing is turned off, everyone must use their own payment method.
