Hi.


Can I allow my son (which is registered as child in my Family Sharing) to download free Apps without my permission?


Thanks,

iPhone 5s, iOS 8.4.1

No, and I like that this is not a feature because lots of free apps have internal in app purchases and you should know your child is downloading these. These in app purchases can happen without your approval so beware apps with these in app purchases. Also, the free app may not be appropriate for a child if the ratings restrictions are not set up.
