Hi TriciaElizabeth,


Family Sharing is really simple to set up.


On your iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch:


Assuming that you want to be the 'Organizer' of the family, using your iOS device go into Settings > iCloud > Set Up Family Sharing > Get Started. Then follow the steps. To invite your child, on your device, go into Settings > iCloud > Family > Add Family Member. Make sure he/she has an email address, linked with their Apple ID. Enter their email address and follow the on-screen instructions. Your child should have received an invitation on their device.


Note: Make sure your device has at least iOS 8 (iPhone 4S and up, iPad 2 and up, iPad Mini and up, iPod Touch 5G and up) or OS X Yosemite.

If you have any questions please feel free to reply to this.


If your device is a Mac, click the link below:
