Make sure each family member has their own Apple ID
To participate in Family Sharing, all family members must have their own Apple ID. Children under 13* can't create an Apple ID on their own. However, the family organizer can create an Apple ID on their child's behalf.
If your child already has an Apple ID, you can add it to your family group and update their email address, date of birth, security questions, and more. If your child does not yet have an Apple ID, use the steps below to create one.
Check your payment method
First, make sure that you're using a supported payment method. Apple hard drive reader. You can manage and change your payment method from your device or your Apple ID account page.
Then, to comply with child online privacy protection laws, verify your parental consent with your payment method's CVV or security code, or with a verification code sent via SMS. Your payment method won't be charged. Learn more about how Apple uses your payment information.
Create an Apple ID for your child
Use the steps below to create an Apple ID for your child, then add them to your family group. After you add your child to your family group, they will have their own Apple ID that they can use on any Apple device.

You can keep your your child's account more secure with two-factor authentication.
If the child already has a Game Center account, but not an Apple ID, you don't need to create a new account for them. Just search for their nickname instead.

Privacy is a fundamental human right. At Apple, it’s also one of our core values. Your devices are important to so many parts of your life. What you share from those experiences, and who you share it with, should be up to you. We design Apple products to protect your privacy and give you control over your information. It’s not always easy. But that’s the kind of innovation we believe in.

Everyday apps. Designed for your privacy.
Safari throws trackers off your trail.
Intelligent Tracking Prevention helps stop advertisers that follow you from site to site.
Safari
Some websites allow hundreds of different data collection companies to watch you, build a profile of you, and serve you ads as you browse the web. Intelligent Tracking Prevention in Safari uses on-device machine learning to help block those trackers.
Advertisers can also create a “fingerprint” of your device to target you based on characteristics like your browser configuration, and fonts and plug-ins you’ve installed. To help prevent this, Safari has built-in fingerprinting defense, which shares a simplified system profile with websites you visit. Making it even more difficult for data companies to identify you.
Maps makes your location history, history.
The Maps app doesn’t associate your data with your Apple ID, and Apple doesn’t keep a history of where you’ve been.
Maps
Where you go says a lot about you. Maps delivers a great experience without Apple knowing which stores, neighborhoods, or clinics you visit. And because Maps doesn’t include a sign-in, where you go isn’t associated with your Apple ID at all.
Personalized features, like locating your parked car, are created right on your device. Data used to improve navigation, such as routes and search terms, is not associated with your identity. Instead, that information is based on random identifiers that are constantly changing.
Photos protects your images from unwanted exposure.
Https Appleid Com
The Photos app uses machine learning to organize photos right on your device. So you don’t need to share them with Apple or anyone else.
Photos
Your photo and video albums are full of precious moments, friends, and your favorite things. Apple devices are designed so those memories don’t leave your hands until you share them.
Some services process photos in the cloud, which gives them access to your photos. But we designed Photos to process your images right on your Mac, iPhone, and iPad. In fact, the Apple Neural Engine in the A13 chip performs over 100 billion operations per photo to recognize faces and places without ever leaving your device.
Messages are only seen by who you send them to.
Apple can’t read your iMessages while they’re being sent between you and the person you’re texting.
Messages
From inside jokes to invitations, a lot of life happens in text and video chats. Every blue-bubble message, picture, Animoji, and video is encrypted while being sent between devices.
Smart suggestions in Messages, like pulling up photos to send based on who you’re messaging, are all done on your device.
Siri learns what you need. Not who you are.
Your Apple ID isn’t connected to Siri, and your requests are associated with a random identifier. Not you.
Siri
Siri was designed from the beginning to learn your preferences without sharing your identity with Apple or anyone else. You don’t sign in with your Apple ID to use Siri, and your device processes as much information as possible without sending it to Apple’s servers.
When Apple does process or store data on our servers, it’s associated with a random identifier — a long string of letters and numbers. That data is used only to improve Siri, and we never share or sell it. Apple doesn’t retain audio of your requests unless you choose to share it with us to improve Siri.
Apple News leaves what you read off the record.
Apple News delivers content based on your interests, but it isn’t connected to your identity. So Apple doesn’t know what you’ve read.
Https Appleid Apple Account Home
Apple News
Many news sources keep track of your identity and create a profile of you. Apple News delivers personalized content without knowing who you are. The content you read is associated with a random identifier, not your Apple ID.
You get editor-curated content and a personalized newsfeed so you can stay up to date with the latest news and stories. And because Apple News uses machine learning, the more you use it, the better your app gets to know what you like — without Apple ever knowing what you’re into.
Wallet and Apple Pay help hide what you buy.
Your credit and debit card numbers are hidden from Apple, and Apple doesn’t keep transaction information that can be tied back to you.
Wallet & Apple Pay
What you buy, where you bought it, and how much you paid is sensitive information. Apple doesn’t store, sell, or use that information.
Apple doesn’t store your credit or debit card numbers or share them with merchants. Instead, a unique Device Account Number is created every time you add a card to Apple Pay. And with Apple Card, your spending history is generated right on your iPhone, so only the bank has that history.
Health keeps your records under wraps.
You control which information goes into the Health app and who you share it with.
Health
From your heart rate to your menstrual cycle, apps and devices for your health can give you insight into some of your most personal details. With the Health app, you’re in charge of what information you’d like to include, what not to, and who has access to it.
All of your data is encrypted and only accessible with your passcode, Touch ID, or Face ID. So however you use the Health app, you’re always in control of your data.
Sign in with Apple
Sign in with Apple is a convenient way to sign in to apps and sites while having more control over the information you share. Apps are restricted to asking only for your name and email address, and Apple won’t track your app activity or build a profile of you.
The App Store
Apps in the App Store are required to follow our strict guidelines and undergo a review. If an app wants access to information like your photos or location, you’re prompted to give permission first. And you can always change your mind about the data you share.
