Unable to share Apple News subscription through Family Sharing.

My husband and I are in the same country under settings, but it will not let him share his Apple News subscription because it says we are in different countries


It will not let him share Apple news with me because it says our phones are in different countries under settings, but they are not

If you have Family sharing set up: (How to: Set up Family Sharing - Apple Support)

Then:

Share content with your family - Apple Support says you can share an Apple News+ subscription.

and

What to do: If you can't find your family's shared apps and content - Apple Support

Wondering where that is showing up:

Eg: maybe one of you may have changed their region code in the App Store.

Eg: See how you can: Change your country or region code in the App Store on Mac - Apple Support

or

You could check your online Apple ID accounts are in order (or edit any out-of-date details)

Apple ID log-in: https://appleid.apple.com/


If needed: Apple ID support website (info / support / contact options etc.): Apple ID - Official Apple Support

or

Billing and Subscriptions Support website: Subscriptions and Billing - Official Apple Support


All the best :-)
