Apple Music family plan

I set up Family in my settings and added one person. I then went to ITunes and subscribed for the family plan. I shared my iTunes and purchase sharing with the person. I want to add this person onto the iTunes family plan but I can’t figure out how to do that. I go on their phone to the family plan and under our names it says get started with apple subscriptions below it. Do I need to pay for the family plan on their phone as well?

Hi there Remi_Yazhi,


If you've successfully set up Family Sharing where you are the organizer, this person is listed as a family member, and you've subscribed to the Apple Music family plan, follow these steps from Add a family member to your subscriptions from Apple next:

How to add a family member to your subscription from Apple
1. Open the Settings app.
2. Tap your name, then tap Family Sharing.
3. Tap Set Up Your Family, then follow the onscreen instructions and invite your family members. Already set up Family Sharing?
4. Eligible subscriptions are automatically shared with your family members.
Learn how to use a Mac to set up Family Sharing.

If you still can't share a subscription
After you set up Family Sharing, eligible subscriptions are automatically shared with your family members. If your family members can't access a subscription, here's what to do:
• If the subscription is an individual or student subscription, upgrade your subscription to a family plan
• Subscriptions that aren't made by Apple, also called third-party subscriptions, might not be eligible to share. If a subscription is shareable, you see a Share with Family option when you go to Settings > [your name] > Subscriptions and tap the subscription.


We hope that helps!
