Q: Downgrading Family Plan

I'd like to know how to downgrade from a family sharing plan to a student plan (apple music). I recently saw the offer but I cannot find it on my iPhone 6s Plus.


Thanks in advance,

    Hello there, eusoubrandley!

     

    Thanks for reaching out to the Apple Support Communities! That is a great question about mobving from a family membership to a student one. Check out this article about how to Get an Apple Music Student Membership. The article will tell you how to manage your Apple Music account and switch to the student membership. Please be sure you read this section of the article:

     

    If you're a part of a family membership

    If you’re already part of an Apple Music Family Membership, you probably don’t need a Student Membership. 

    If you're in a Family Sharing group, and you change to a Student Membership, your family organizer will be billed for both your Student Membership and the Family Membership to Apple Music. 

    If you’re the organizer of a Family Sharing group, and you change to a Student Membership, the rest of your group will lose access to Apple Music. The next time they sign in to Apple Music, each family member will see an option to join as an individual member. If you remain the family organizer, you'll continue to be billed for your Family Sharing group's iTunes purchases, including memberships and subscriptions.

     

    Cheers!
