How can I add more members to Family Sharing

I can not add more family members on family shearing, we only are 4 members including me, and I need to add another two members.

You can have up to 6 people total. If it is saying you cannot add more, is the list full? Go to Settings > [your name] > Family Sharing


Do these people have their accounts set to the same country as yours.


More details about the issue you are encountering, and error messages, would help.


Click on this link to learn how to set up Family Sharing --> Set up Family Sharing - Apple Support

Read the section: "Invite people to join your family"

and at the very bottom:

"Remember, you can only join one family at a time, and you can only switch to a different family group once per year."


Refer to this page for Apple Support features ➔ Contact - Official Apple Support

Select from the presented options until you find a solution for your issue, or see if there is a chat or phone call contact method offered lower on the page (you sometimes have to narrow down the options multiple times before this is shown). If you do not see your issue, keep experimenting with any series of selections until you reach one that offers a chat session or a telephone call and get the representative to redirect you.

Can you be more specific on why you cannot add more members? A Family Sharing group can have up to six members. Be aware though that a member of a Family Sharing group cannot join a different group without first leaving their current group.


Add more by following the steps in Add a member to a Family Sharing group on iPhone
