my youngest son has an iphone and I have an android.


I am wanting to set him up and even got an apple ID but can't set him up because I don't have a family plan. How can I set him up properly without having an iphone?

What exactly do you want to set up?


Do you have any Apple device, iPad, Mac, iPod touch?


If you don't have an Apple device, then there's no point and no way to create a Family Sharing group directly.

If you are trying to set up Restrictions, you can do so directly from his iPhone, in Settings ➜ Screen Time.


Otherwise, explain exactly what you want to set up about the iPhone.
