Family Sharing lets you extend your Habitify Premium subscription to the people in your household, so everyone gets full access without each person needing to pay separately. It works through Apple’s own Family Sharing system, meaning setup and management largely happen through your Apple ID rather than inside Habitify itself.
This is an Apple-only feature. Family Sharing works exclusively between Apple devices: iPhone, iPad, and Mac. It is not possible to share a subscription purchased on an iOS device with a family member using an Android device.

  2. Under the ‘Build habits that stick’ title, find the Personal/Family switcher.

Sharing Lifetime access

The one-time Lifetime purchase uses a different Apple system called Purchase Sharing. For this to work, a few conditions must be met on everyone’s devices. If you are the family organizer or the purchaser:
  1. Go to Settings → Family.
  2. Tap on ‘Purchase Sharing’
  3. Follow the steps prompted to turn the sharing on.

Getting shared with the Habitify access

For subscriptions, the sharing is enabled automatically for the family member once the organizer or the purchaser enables ‘Share with Family’ on the subscriptions they purchase. For Lifetime access, after the family organizer and the purchaser enable the ‘Purchase Sharing’, other family members must enable the feature too:
  1. Go to Settings → Family.
  2. Tap on ‘Purchase Sharing’
  3. Follow the steps prompted to turn the sharing on.
After confirming all the settings above are correct, to activate their lifetime access on Habitify account, the family member can
  • Open Habitify, and open the Settings tab
  • Tap ‘Payment and Billing’.
  • Tap ‘Restore Purchases’.

FAQs

If you bought a Habitify plas for family and your family member can’t restore Premium, Apple Family Sharing may not be able to “see” the purchase.A common cause is that Habitify is hidden in the organizer’s App Store purchase history. When an app is hidden, it may not show up under Subscriptions or Purchases, so family members can’t download/restore it from the organizer’s shared purchases.To fix it, on the organizer’s device:
  1. On your iPhone or iPad, open App Store.
  2. Tap your profile icon in the top right corner.
  3. Tap Purchased
  4. Tap your name / Apple ID
  5. Look for Hidden Purchases
  6. Find Habitify and tap Unhide
After unhiding, Habitify should reappear under Purchased/Family Purchases and the family member should be able to restore access.If Habitify still doesn’t appear under Purchased/Family Purchases after these steps, please contact Apple Support for further investigation.
The Family subscription is supported by the feature Family Sharing provided by Apple, therefore this Premium model is available for iOS users only.You must have an iCloud account and be in a Family Sharing group of Apple to share the Family subscription.Once your iCloud account get access to Habitify Premium via a Family Sharing, you can install Habitify and log into your account on an iOS device and get your Habitify account upgraded.Then, you can log into your account on any devices even Android or website app while still getting access the Premium features. That’s the work-around way we can suggest.
Scenario 1: Switching from a Personal Subscription to a Family Subscription
  1. On your iOS device, go to Settings app.
  2. Tap [your name].
  3. Tap Subscriptions.
  4. Tap on View Plans or See All Plans.
  5. Find and choose the Family Plan you prefer.
  6. Follow the following instructions on the screen to complete your purchase.
Scenario 2: Switching from a Personal Subscription to a Lifetime Family PurchaseMoving from a recurring subscription to a one-time Lifetime purchase requires a couple of extra steps because you cannot directly “upgrade” a subscription to an in-app purchase.
  • First, cancel the auto-renewal of your current monthly or annual subscription to ensure you are not charged again.
  • Wait for your current subscription period to ends.
  • Once your account is on the Free plan, you can purchase the Lifetime access for Family directly from the the Upgrade screen.
Scenario 3: You already purchased a personal Lifetime accessIf you have already purchased a Personal Lifetime plan, it is important to understand that this plan is a complete, one-time purchase for your individual account. Think of it like buying the product outright.Because of this, there is no direct way to “upgrade” or “switch” a Personal Lifetime plan to a Family Lifetime plan. The two are considered separate products.If you own a Personal Lifetime plan and wish to provide access to your family, the solution is to purchase a separate Family Plan (either a subscription or another Lifetime plan) for your family members.
