Can I share only Apple Music with family on Apple One Premier?

Hi, if I subscribe to Apple One Premier, can I share only Apple Music with my family members through Family Sharing? Or do they automatically get access to all the other services in the plan too?


Thanks!

Am no expert on Apple's systems ... we are all Apple customers here, just as you are. Family groups are unique, so may need different ways to set things up or to handle situations.


To share only Apple Music you may need an Apple Music Family Subscription


Do you have Family Sharing set up and working already ?

If so, the way I understand it:

If you add the Apple One Premier subscription to your Family Sharing set-up...

Yes ... then family members would automatically share the subscription benefits.

If Family Sharing has not yet been set up:

The family members do not get to share everything in Apple One Premier automatically ...

Family Sharing needs to be set up,

Everyone needs to have their own Apple Account.

Family members can be invited to share.

The subscription holder may choose to be the "Family organiser" of the Family Sharing and set things in motion.

Depending on the set-up settings:

Eligible subscriptions are then shared with your family members automatically.

(There are some restrictions automatically in place for child accounts)

Apple support provides an article online that may be helpful:

For what you can share ... and ... what can not be shared:

See: What types of content can I share with my family? - Apple Support


If you have a Family music subscription (not just an individual subscription) everyone in Family Sharing automatically has their own Library to which they can add whatever music they wish to listen to.

I've already read that article, which means if I subscribe to Apple One Premier, then all the Apple One Premier services in it will be shared with my family, right? Without being able to limit it (like only sharing Apple Music)
