Can I share one room?

I’m aware I can share my home but I would like to share certain rooms with certain kids. For example: my oldest - outside and den (so the tv, lights, door, and garage). For my youngest, just the den (the tv and lights).

Is it possible to just share one room of a home?

iPhone 13 Pro Max, iOS 15

No. It is currently all or nothing. Use Product Feedback - Apple to suggest fine grained control to Apple.

iPad iCloud users Is it possible to have multiple users on an iPad? Similar to that on an iMac where you have a user profile and can switch between profiles and their related iCloud accounts etc? I would like to have a Family Hub iPad. But from what I can see, it seems only feasible to split use if I create a household iCloud account or just use a child’s account as a “shared” account on the device to ensure access is still restricted. Has anybody done this before with success?

Sharing specific rooms in homekit my entire house runs on home kit, I have guests that come and need to control things from their phone but there are no permissions in HomeKit. When I share with a guest who should have access to living room, bathroom they also have access to video, all rooms and sensors even climate control. This really does not make sense to me and it just requires a little update. Everyone is going IoT but it should also be more secure where I have granular control of permission assignments. We should be able to create groups and assign permissions by groups and also assign permissions individually.

Why can I own 17 apple devices but only be able to share movies I bought with 10 of those devices? I want movies/TVshows , etc. that I buy to be available to all Family Sharing member devices. Unfortunately in order to do this all members must have "Media and Purchases" logged into the same account, even though each member is logged into their devices with their own AppleIDs. Even more unfortunate is that the shared account can only have 10 devices associated to it - so if all 5 Family members have an iPhone and Mac each the 10 device slots are used. Suddenly someone in the family buys an iPad but they can't view the movies/TVshows because the new device doesn't get a shared account device slot! This is frustrating of course. Why does Apple's model not allow at least 1 device of each type (iPhone, Mac, iPad) for each family member view the movie/TVshow content? By my math increasing the limit to at least 15 makes more sense than the current model. I would even be willing to pay extra for the service.
