Great for sharing. All users on the Family and Premier plans can sign in with their own Apple ID. So everyone has private access to each service and gets personalized recommendations.
You can share content that you purchase from Apple including music, movies, tv shows, apps, and books. You can also share your Apple subscriptions including Apple One.
You and up to five family members can enjoy access to Apple Original TV shows and movies on Apple TV+, and share Apple services like Apple Music, Apple Arcade, Apple News+, and more. When you share subscriptions, each person sees their own preferences and recommendations — not the whole family’s.
