    iCloud Sharing 50GB iCloud storage?

    When was the ability to share iCloud storage for the 50GB tier introduced? Is it part of the iOS 15/iCloud+ improvements? I only use about 30GB and my son needs about 6GB, so I was reluctant to either him 50GB, but it seems that it can now be shared. I did not see this documented anywhere.
