Family sharing not updating after changing family

I was participating in family sharing with my brother, and using the family share icloud+ option. I left that family and subscribed to icloud+ on individual plan. Then I created a family with my girlfriend and sent her an invite. The problem occurs when I try to share icloud+ with her. When I try to do so I get an option to use the previous family share of my brother as if I didn’t leave that family. It seems to me that the family settings didn’t update correctly on my device.

iPhone 12 Pro, iOS 16

Hi there mirza15,


If you are trying to share iCloud+ with another family group, first ensure you are following these steps from Share iCloud+ with your family:

On your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
In iOS 16 or iPadOS 16 or later:
1. If you haven't set up Family Sharing yet, set up Family Sharing
2. Go to Settings > Family. 
3. Tap Subscriptions.
4. Tap iCloud+.
5. Follow the steps to share your existing plan.
6. Use Messages to let any family members with an existing iCloud+ plan know that they can now switch to your shared iCloud+ plan.


If this is still occurring after following those steps, then Apple Support would be the best equipped to look into what's happening more. Reach out using this link: Apple Support


Cheers!
