Share Apple Music With Family Sharing On Mac - Apple Support (IL)

Share Apple Music with Family Sharing on Mac

When you subscribe to Apple Music or Apple One with a family subscription, you can use Family Sharing to share Apple Music with up to five other family members. Your family group members don’t need to do anything — Apple Music is available to them the first time they open the Music app after your family subscription begins.

Note: To use Family Sharing, you need an Apple Account and you must be part of a family group, either as the organiser or an invited family member. To share Apple Music through Family Sharing, someone in the group must have a family subscription — as opposed to an individual subscription — to Apple Music or Apple One.

Additionally, family members can download each other’s iTunes Store purchases to their own computers and devices. They can also hide their purchases so others can’t download them.

Note: Apple Music and Apple One aren’t available in all countries or regions. See the Apple Support article Availability of Apple Media Services.

Upgrade to a family subscription

If neither you nor the family group has a family subscription, you can upgrade your account.
