Google Play Family Library lets you share purchases

If you keep recommending apps, games, movies or books that you’ve bought from the Google Play Store to friends and family members, you’ll be pleased to hear that you’ll be able to share these purchases via Family Library.

Google Play Family Library lets you share purchases

Without needing to hand over your password or device, you can introduce someone that you consider a family member to a recommendation. Google Play Family Library lets up to six people share a single account, giving them access to every app, game, movie, book, and TV show purchased.

It should be noted that while there’s no fee to use the feature, you will need to register a credit card as the primary payment method. That means that you need to be able to trust those on the account not to run amuck with your money.
