Howdy firebub6885,


We appreciate you trying that for us. Since this is having issues on the iPhone, we want to try a couple of things. First, if you haven't already, let's restart that iPhone and test this again:


Restart your iPhone


If that doesn't help, can you try this from any other iOS devices you may own?


If that still doesn't help, do you own a Mac? If so, you can follow the steps in this article under the section, "On your Mac".


Leave Family Sharing


Finally, if the issues still persist, we'd want to get this looked at closer for you. See a list of Apple phone numbers around the world and get connected by phone here:


Contact Apple for support and service


Cheers!

Howdy firebub6885,


It sounds like you're wanting to leave a Family Sharing group, but when you go to the page you get a spinning gear. We will be happy to help.


The first thing that we noticed, is that you're connected by VPN. To ensure that this is not VPN related, can you tell us what happens whenever you disable the VPN and try connecting directly?


Also, the following article has steps on how to leave a Family Sharing group. Please have a look and let us know if you have any further issues or concerns.


Leave Family Sharing


Cheers!
