    Family share?


    MeHi! I have 6 boys. By Christmas we will have seven XBox One’s. We need everyone to have their own Xbox live account so we can all play against each other on games like destiny. My question is as follows: do I have to pay for destiny and Forza seven different
    times or is there a way to family share and buy it once? For example on my Apple family sharing plan once I buy an app once, all my kids get it for free.

    :)

    Family share?

    There is no way you can buy it once and share with 7 consoles. You wouldn't quite have to buy it 7 times, but you would have to purchase multiple copies. You have only share games/gold on the Home console and you can only have 1 console set as your Home
    at a time. So you would have to buy it on one account, set a console as It's Home, then that account can sign in and use another console, then you'd have to repeat with the next set of consoles and so on. For 7, you'd need at least 4 copies.

    Hi there,

    The current home sharing works as such: An account can mark 1 Xbox One as it's home console. The content purchased by that account (games and gold), are shared with all accounts on that console. The account can then be logged into another console connected
    to Live and access their games and gold. My Home Xbox Setting on Xbox One | Share Your Xbox One

    The limit is basically 2 consoles at any one time. Any more than that, and other accounts will have purchased a game/gold.

    You can add your voice on the Xbox feedback site for a change to that: feedback.xbox.com

    What exactly was Family Sharing

    "Family Sharing as it is" is unfortunately none existent, Family Sharing is a different service to what use to be the Family Gold plan and both are none existent at this stage, i do like that the 1 Gold plan covers an XB1 in its entirety for every profile
    on that console,

    me personally i would prefer the Family Sharing plan over the old Family Gold plan if it ever come down to choosing one or the other.

    Family Sharing was to share digital games among 10 people,

    Whoever is the adult in the account can change it, a child account can not.
