Follow the instructions in How to share purchases with your family
Turn off purchase sharing
- View your Purchase Sharing settings in Settings on your iPhone or iPad or in System Preferences on your Mac.
- Turn off purchase sharing:
- On your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch, tap Stop Purchase Sharing.
- On your Mac, click Turn Off, then click Stop Purchase Sharing.
Be aware also of Apple's note:
When Purchase Sharing is turned on, everyone's purchases will be billed to the family organiser's payment method.* If there's an issue with the payment method, the family organiser can update their payment method or add a new one.
If you're the family organiser 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, such as Apple TV+ and Apple Arcade. When Purchase Sharing is turned off, each family member must use their own payment method.
