This makes a lot more sense taking into account all the services that are offered, including Youtube, Google Play Music or Google Stay. So, it will be possible to save enough money to enjoy all these advantages, but everything has a procedure.
What they offer the family accounts
Occurs not as a Netflix or Spotify, which pay for a particular service. On this occasion, the household takes on another dimension due to the synergies created in this conglomeration of services. This way, you can share the following elements:
- Google Play Books
- Google Play Movies
- Games and apps in the Play Store
- Google Stay
- Youtube Premium
- Google Pass
- Play Music
- Google One
Those are all the services available. Everything that is purchased by a user, may be used by others. Also, if it is a family, content as the Google Calendar or Google Photos can also be unified to view the article between all of the members, such as family events or albums common. As happens in the rest of the platform, the maximum number of members is 6.
How to create the family group
It is a fairly simple process, but which must be done carefully, as it includes create account and enter data of all members of the group. The first aspect to keep in mind is that it is not possible to do this from the app itself the Play Store, so you will have to do it from the browser.
As you most likely already have a Google account created, so it will be even easier. Once you enter the link, click on “Start” and directly I will invite members of the group. For this you will need the e-mail of each one of themthat we can add them in that same menu, if you don’t have one. Nothing happens if we don’t have them in a first moment, it is possible to add them later. In this way, the rest of the members join through an invitation link.
How share purchases in Google Play
Still a simpler process. All purchases that are made, are displayed simultaneously in the rest of the group’s accounts. To access all the content, can be accessed from the app, i.e., if it is a movie, a music content or if it is an application.
In regard to the rental of movies, members they have a deadline of 48 hours display to enjoy that content, as past that time limit, it will cancel the rental. Not all the users who helped us have by which to enjoy all the content, since we can choose in the profile of each one, if we approve your access to all content purchases, only purchases built-in apps, or no permission.
There is also a site for minors
We can add that in the family there is a father, a mother or a legal guardian in charge of that account, to control purchases, and, in short, that the money is not wasted. To do this, we access the Play Store, click on “Account” and then “Family”, where we will be able to assign a guardian in the option “Manage privileges of a parent”. From there, we will select the member who should manage the account, so that all acquisitions must go through the permission of that member.
In addition, we have the possibility of creating an account Play Linkthat will allow us to have to hand content dedicated to the youngest, even record your activity with your smartphone, as well as to establish certain rules of restriction to web sites that minors do not have the age to see. We also get other advantages such as blocking devices for the time slots and install remotely apps and games that you will come well for your curiosity and development.
