That’s what I figured it was like. I’ve just stuck with what I originally set up

We’ve had share IDs since like 2009

That’s my reasoning for why we all still have one. It was the best way to do

Finally did it because we added our next kid and it started messing up every one’s settings. So, was finally motivated

Everyone with their own Apple ID. My wife and I use my Apple ID for the App Store. Otherwise she uses her own appleid.

Everyone should have their own appleID. Then put everyone in the same family on iCloud.
