Is there a way to share my Match with my wife's iPhone?

I do have family share setup, but that only allows her to play "purchased" music from my itunes store. Is there a way for her phone to stream my entire iTunes library through my match account, not just the purchased items?

I don't believe you can share a Match account. You can login on multiple devices, but you can't let another user access your account through their own.

you have to use the same iCloud account in the music app. my wife and i do this but have separate accounts for mail, calendars, contacts, etc. so 3 iCloud accounts between the three of us. the one we share is the top level account in the family sharing thing

If I am understanding you correctly, my wife can have her ID for the phone log in but use my ID separately for the music app login? If this is the case, where do I input this login info for the music app?

Thanks

yes, you are understanding me correctly. open the music app and click the little head in the upper left hand corner. click sign out at the bottom. sign back in with the iCloud account with the iTunes match subscription

It worked! Took some extra research to get match to actually work and update on her phone, but your info was the key that I was missing. Much thanks
