Apple TV Plus is part of the Apple ecosystem, which makes it easier to share it with other members of your family. If you've never created a family group or shared anything with other family members, then you'll need to set it up before you can get started. Once you do, activating Apple TV plus family sharing takes just a couple of clicks.
When you set up family sharing, one adult from the household has to be in charge of adding and removing family members. This person is also responsible for all charges made against your Apple account from Apple TV+ or from other connected apps in the Apple ecosystem.
How to Set up Apple Family Sharing
Before you can share Apple TV Plus with any members of your family, you first need to set up Apple Family Sharing. It's a simple process. You'll find the option in your settings on an iPhone or an iPad, or you can access them from the Apple menu > System Preferences > Family Sharing.
In either setup method, you'll need to agree to be the person who is responsible for any purchases made by shared family members. This means providing your credit card information (if you haven't already provided it; if you did, then you'll need to confirm it). You'll also need to invite family members to your sharing group.
You must set up Family Sharing from an Apple device (iPhone, iPad, or Mac computer). You won't be able to set it up from Apple TV or from a Windows device or computer.
