    You can likely use it from different physical locations. But just know that I’m order to set it up, you have to login with your account on their computer at some point to enable the family sharing feature. So unless you go there qnd do it, or remote into their computer to do it, or give them your password, you can’t use that feature. Some level of trust in each other is required.

      That is not how the new families work. The new on all you need to do is sent an invite and they’ll be able to join the family. No need to log in their computers or authorise anything, just a simple invite.

        How new is it? I just set this up about 2 weeks ago and it required logging into both computers

      I doubt it, because I think that’s literally how it used to work
