Basics 

AirDrop lets you share your photos, videos, websites, locations, and other items wirelessly 

with other nearby devices (iOS 7 or later). With iOS 8, you can share with Mac computers 

with OS X Yosemite. AirDrop transfers information using Wi-Fi and Bluetooth—both must be 

turned on. To use AirDrop, you need to be signed in to iCloud using your Apple ID. Transfers are 

encrypted for security.

With Family Sharing, up to six family members can share their iTunes Store, iBooks Store, and  

App Store purchases, a family calendar, and family photos, all without sharing accounts.
One adult in your household—the family organizer—invites family members to join the family 

group and agrees to pay for any iTunes Store, App Store, and iBooks Store purchases those family 

members initiate while part of the family group. Once set up, family members get immediate 

access to each other’s music, movies, TV shows, books, and eligible apps. In addition, family 

members can easily share photos in a shared family album, add events to a family calendar, 

share their location with other family members, and even help locate another family member’s 

missing device.

Children under 13 can participate in Family Sharing, too. As a parent or legal guardian, the family 

organizer can provide parental consent for a child to have his or her own Apple ID, and create it 

on the child’s behalf. Once the account is created, it’s added to the family group automatically.

Family Sharing requires you to sign in to iCloud with your Apple ID. You will also be asked to 

confirm the Apple ID you use for the iTunes Store, App Store, and iBooks Store. It is available on 

devices with iOS 8, Mac computers with OS X Yosemite, and PCs with iCloud for Windows 4.0.  

You can be part of only one family group at a time.
