I'm a 19-year-old who wants to explore online dating, but I'm stuck on family sharing with my parents as the admin, which lists me as a child account. I can only download free apps, and while my parents aren't entirely against dating apps, I know they would ridicule me if they found out. I want to avoid that conversation. How can I hide the apps I've downloaded and keep any transactions away from my parents? Can I hide it from the family organizer as well?

How about doing a factory reset on your phone and setting it up with your own account? Just keep in mind that you’ll lose everything that’s tied to the old account, including apps and data.
You should really think about talking to your parents about switching off family sharing entirely or at least ask them to change your account status. You’re at an age where you should be able to make your own choices without needing their permission. If they won't budge, you could just create a new Apple ID and lose some data from the old account.
Honestly, it's tough to hide anything from a family organizer. If your birthday is listed correctly on your account, you might consider just having an open chat with your parents. At 19, you’re technically an adult and having a straightforward conversation might be healthier for everyone in the long run.
Honestly, at 19, you should just be able to have your own account since you are legally an adult. Why not just leave the family share and take control over your own downloads?
