So family iCloud is here but i wonder the best way to migrate to it.
I, as many have been for many years, have been using a separate iCloud account for Apps and iTunes as a work around. This has been shared with the rest of my family so we only have to buy all our Apps and Music once.
For the rest of the family it's quite simple to switch over. They carry on using their primary iCloud account and i send them an invite to join the account we have already been using and they start using that for Apps etc. (basically the same as before )
But for me it's slightly harder as I need to switch my entire phone over to this dummy account for me to then invite the rest of my family. This would mean me changing away from my primary cloud account and so losing my email address and iMessage and everything else on my phone?
Not sure if i explained that well enough but as so many people i know have been using this system it's going to come up.
