Turn on Family Sharing

It is common nowadays for families to want to use the same apps without paying multiple times. The solution for this is the Family Sharing program.

Both Google and Apple offer this option, however, this program is different on the two platforms.

•  Apple allows sharing a non-consumable in-app purchase with up to five additional family members, Google does not. 
• Google allows sharing a paid app with up to five other family members but Apple does not.
