How do I change the name of the family sharing organizer?

Thanks for taking the time to try to help.

My specific problem was that, having set up family sharing, the organizer kept showing up as my deceased daughter. I had successfully set up a separate Apple ID and password for this new family, but that did not change the organizer.

With help of Apple software phone support, I was able to fix the problem by deleting my daughter's contact card from Contacts. Apparently, she was recognized as the original owner, despite a new Apple ID, and therefore presumably family organizer.

My name now shows up as owner and organizer, and (as best I can determine) all functions of family sharing (including issues with non-functioning screen time) are now working.

I am so glad to hear you got things working.

You need to set up Family Sharing from your phone. Is that what you're doing?

If the children are already part of Family Sharing group, you need to set up Family Sharing on your phone first then transfer the children.
