Google has updated its Family Sharing feature to include Google AI Plus benefits for all household members. This change lets families share premium AI features without extra cost. Users who subscribe to Google AI Plus can now invite up to five family members to enjoy the same perks.

The new setup works through Google’s existing Family Group system. Once the main subscriber enables sharing, everyone in the group gets access right away. There is no need to sign up separately or pay more. The shared benefits include faster response times, priority access during high-traffic periods, and early previews of new AI tools.
This move aims to make advanced AI tools more accessible to everyday users. Families can now use smart features together for homework, planning, or creative projects. Google says this update supports its goal of bringing helpful technology into more homes.
Setting up the shared access is simple. Subscribers go to their Google Account settings, choose Family Sharing, and turn on AI Plus sharing. Invited members receive a notification and can start using the features immediately. All users must be part of the same Family Group and meet age requirements.
Google AI Plus launched earlier this year as a paid tier offering enhanced capabilities over the free version. With this expansion, the company hopes more people will see the value in subscribing. Households get more for their money while enjoying consistent, high-quality AI support across devices.

The feature is rolling out now to all Google AI Plus subscribers in supported regions. No action is needed beyond enabling sharing in account settings. Existing Family Groups will see the option appear automatically in their dashboard.
