Grayed out family sharing.

I’ve been trying to add another adult family member to my family, but the button to add another person is greyed out. I have five (5) members in the group and I know it gets capped out at six (6). I’ve already attempted restarting my phone, but it remains the same.

iPhone 16 Pro, iOS 18

If an app or feature on your device is not working, not appearing, or is restricted (grayed out), a frequent reason is it may have been disabled using Screen Time, or by an IT administrator if you are using a device owned by an employer or educational institution.

Tap Settings > Screen Time > Content & Privacy > scroll to Allow Changes and turn on.


- If the device is managed (Settings > General > VPN & Device Management), contact the IT department that is doing the managing.
