If you are sharing with strangers, just note that purchases will typically go through the family organizer's account. Meaning the stranger on the family account can rake up thousands of dollars of in-app purchases. And access shared family calendars and all.

Apple has fine-tuned Family accounts to apply to typical family behaviour. You can scold your family member for indiscriminately buying apps, but it's going to be a civil lawsuit to try and claim damages off someone else. You could set them as "Children" but it means they can't buy apps either and it will inconvenience their use.

Might want to think twice about it.

Anyone wants to share really should take note of this.

Using AppleOne for a while, only shared to my wife and sister.
Cloud storage and Apple Music has been the biggest takeaway, however unable to utilise Apple TV as I don't really watch tv series and their selection is really small compared to Netflix , Disney and Prime Video.

Wondering if I am under-utilising AppleOne.
