An Apple One subscription plan is a great way to save money on streaming services. It includes popular services like Apple Music and Apple Arcade and is billed at one low monthly price. However, there are several different tiers to choose from, with Apple One Individual and Family being the two most popular. Read on to find out what the difference is and which one is best for you.
What is the difference between Apple One Individual and Apple One Family?
The biggest difference between an Apple One Individual subscription and an Apple One Family subscription is the number of users who have access. An Apple One Individual plan is valid for only one subscriber. That means that the Apple ID that pays for the service is the only one that has access to its features.
In comparison, Apple One Family allows the primary account holder to share the benefits. There can be up to five people on an Apple One Family account. This represents a significant savings, as the Family plan only costs $6 more than the Individual plan. Plus, Apple One Family comes with additional cloud storage space. The Individual tier includes 50GB of iCloud storage, while the Family tier has 200GB of shared space.
What’s the same between Apple One Individual and Apple One Family?
Aside from who can use Apple One, the Individual and Family plans offer identical services. Both tiers include Apple TV+, Apple Music, and Apple Arcade. Finally, both plans include iCloud storage, but the amount of space differs.
What are the other Apple One subscription options?
In addition to the Apple One individual and Apple One family plans, there is also a Premier option. This is the ultimate subscription plan, as it also includes Apple Fitness+ and Apple News+. The other big benefit is a whopping 2TB of iCloud storage space.
Like the Family option, you can share the benefits of this plan with five other people. However, the Premier plan comes at a steep price of $37.95 per month.
How much does Apple One Individual vs. Family cost?
An individual subscription to Apple One costs $19.95 per month. That sounds like a lot, but it actually saves you $9 per month compared to buying each service separately. The family plan costs $25.95 per month, which is a savings of at least $11 per month based on the extra cloud storage. However, the savings increase astronomically depending on how many people you share the benefits with.
Can you share Apple with just one person?
You can’t share an individual Apple One subscription. The reason is that subscriptions to Apple Music and other services on an iPhone are tied to a user’s Apple ID. So you can’t simply sign in to someone else’s Music, Arcade, or TV+ account without signing out of your Apple ID. However, you could theoretically share Apple Music or TV+ to use on an Android device or streaming device.
Is Apple One Family worth the cost?
An Apple One Family subscription is definitely worth it if you have friends or family members who will benefit from the service. Spending an extra $6 will save them the $19.95 each on an individual plan. Best of all, each Apple user gets their own account when you share the benefits, so no one will see your music playlists or iCloud storage.
