Google has slowly been expanding each of its apps to work better for families. It even launched Family Link, a way for kids to use Google's apps with parental supervision.

The company is now expanding its family offerings across many more apps, including YouTube TV and Google calendar, the company announced on Tuesday.

The newly launched YouTube TV comes with family accounts and can be used by up to 6 devices. On Google Calendar, a new "family calendar" makes it easier to have a streamlined calendar for family activities. Similarly, Google Keep notes can be shared with your "Google Family" and used for things like grocery lists. Lastly, Google Photos new sharing features are also being offered for families. Families can get started with these features by creating a Google family. The features are being rolled out today.

Google's Family oriented products are still new, but off to a good start. As the company moves more and more towards dedicated offerings for families, especially with Google Home, it’s important for them to make sure all of their products work well for families and other groups.
