A fellow forum member wrote an excellent and very detailed guide on sharing iCloud accounts, so I’ve adapted it here. I’d like to thank him for that.
[Preface]
All of my primary devices are set to the US region, and I have extremely high standards for data security and long-term account stability. I’m sharing this account purely to help offset the cost of 2TB of iCloud storage and my subscription fees. To avoid the hassle of constantly adding and removing members, I’m only looking for long-term, reliable participants who won’t cause trouble. I’m a heavy user of the entire Apple ecosystem, and this is a genuine personal need. No refunds for dropping out; if the group disbands, remaining funds will be refunded proportionally.
[Plan and Members]
Plan: Apple One Premier (US region, the largest tier) + Infuse Pro
Members: 1 Group Owner + 1 Family Member + 4 Participants (4 spots remaining)
Included Benefits: Apple Music (lossless/spatial audio), Apple TV+, Apple Arcade (unlimited play without in-app purchases), Apple Fitness+, Apple News+, iCloud+ 2TB, and Infuse Pro.
[Storage & Usage]
iCloud Storage Allocation: 2TB total shared capacity; each member has independent access to 333 GB.
Storage Limit: The absolute personal limit for each member is 350 GB;
If you exceed the 350 GB limit and fail to free up space within 24 hours after being notified via the WeChat group, you will be removed from the family group immediately, and the membership fee is non-refundable.
[Price and Payment]
Price: ¥136 / Quarterly (3 months)
Payment Cycle: Quarterly (3 months): ¥136
Payment Methods: WeChat Pay / Alipay. First-time purchases support Xianyu transactions (the platform’s 0.6% service fee is borne by the buyer, or purchase directly at full price; subsequent renewals will be processed via WeChat group payments).
Pricing Adjustment Policy: If Apple or exchange rates undergo significant changes in the future, the new price will take effect starting from the next billing date; No refunds or credits will be issued for the paid period.
[Important Notes / Eligibility Requirements]
Account Requirements: You must use a US Apple ID as your primary account; otherwise, iCloud shared storage will not be available.
Family Group Restrictions: Before joining, please ensure you are not currently part of any other Apple Family Group (accounts that have frequently joined or left Family Groups within the past year may be subject to Apple’s risk control restrictions and unable to join a new Family Group; please verify this yourself).
Existing Subscriptions: Upon joining Family Sharing, your current individual subscriptions for the same services (e.g., the US version of Apple Music) will be automatically replaced and taken over, ensuring a seamless transition.
[Privacy and Security]
Family Sharing only shares "subscription access" and "iCloud storage pool."
Data is completely isolated: Your personal data—including photos, files, notes, and viewing history—is completely invisible to the group organizer and other members.
We recommend turning off “Shared Albums” and “Location Sharing” in Settings after joining to further ensure privacy.

Note: Once the group is full, we will create a dedicated WeChat notification group to centrally manage renewal dates.
