Can I limit my family sharing purchases?

I have set up family sharing but I would like to limit what my kids can purchase on the account. Is there a way to do this?

Hi Plastic Paul,


If you would like to limit or manage what your children purchase within Family Sharing, you may want to look into enabling the Ask to Buy feature on their accounts. You may find the following article helpful:


Request and make purchases with Ask to Buy


You may also want to take a look at the options available in the Restrictions settings on their individual devices (such as setting a ratings limit), as outlined in this article:


iOS: Understanding Restrictions (parental controls)
