Create a New iCloud Email Address on Mac

Once you've helped your family get set up with an Apple ID, it's time to consider adding them to your Family Sharing account. With iCloud Family Sharing, you can share a family calendar and keep track of everyone's whereabouts at any given time. You can also enable the Ask To Buy restriction for anyone under 18, allowing you to remotely approve or decline purchases.

Family Sharing makes it easy to monitor everyone's location using location sharing or Find My Friends. You don't have to worry about unexpected purchases either - new purchases made within the Family Sharing account will be charged to your credit card, which is convenient for kids.

If someone is part of your Family Sharing plan, they can download movies, music, ebooks, apps, and games that you've purchased. This means you can share your digital content with people you trust.

Want to put a time limit on screen time? No problem! You can also sign up for a full monitoring service like Qustodio to keep track of websites, apps, and games your kids are using.

If you're concerned about how your child is going to use their iPhone or iPad, you can set up Parental Controls to restrict device usability. You can even set up parental controls that allow you to monitor app downloads from the App Store and purchases of books, movies, and music.

By creating a new iCloud email address on Mac, you can give each family member their own unique identity while keeping everyone connected with Family Sharing.
