Normally you don't want to use the same Apple ID for anything. Using separate Apple IDs makes it possible to keep things separate -- for example for each of you to have your own contacts and to sync them to your own iCloud. You can go to Settings > iCloud on each iPhone and iPad to see what Apple ID is being used. On the Mac you go to Apple menu > System Preferences > iCloud to see the Apple ID used.


With each using your own ID, you can use Family Sharing to share:
