Family Sharing is not working on iOS. What should I check?

Applies to: iOS / iPadOS, using separate family members’ Apple Accounts. Sharing a purchase between your own iPad and iPhone with the same account is a different workflow.

  1. Check that Family Sharing is configured and that the purchase is eligible for sharing. Eligibility and purchase-sharing settings are managed by Apple.
  2. Check the purchaser’s sharing settings and the affected member’s App Store account.
  3. On the family member’s device, open Resprite’s Premium screen and try Restore Purchase.

Apple’s purchase-sharing guide explains the account settings. Resprite cannot enable sharing for a purchase Apple does not make shareable.

If access is still missing, contact support and tell us whether the original purchase is a subscription or a one-time purchase.
