If there's an issue when you send a gift

  • The recipient of your gift must have an Apple ID in your country or region. For example, if you're in the United States, you can't send a gift to a friend who lives in Australia.
  • In some regions, you can't send gifts. Store availability also varies by country or region. Learn what's available in your country or region.
  • If you're using Family Sharing and Ask To Buy is turned on for your account, you can't purchase gifts. 
  • You can't gift individual songs on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. To gift a song, use your Mac or PC.
  • You can't gift apps, TV shows, or movies on a Mac or PC. To gift those items, use an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
  • You can't gift a free app or item. But you can tap the Share button  or the arrow button  to share a link to the app or item.
