Restricting App Sharing with iCloud

[rekamds]

Hi all,

I currently use once MobileMe account across my iP4, my wife's iP4 and my son's Touch (and shortly an iPad).

Could anyone who has been hands-on with iCloud answer this question: will I be able to restrict sharing of certain apps to just be between certain devices? i.e. I will want iCal to share between my iPhone and the iPad but not my wife's/son's devices? Similary with iMessage and Reminders but still be able to share contacts/photos/newsstand/music between them all?

thanks in advance

Nope. All or nothing.

Because of iMessage also, it would really be best if they each create their own iCloud account. They can continue to use your iCloud account for iTunes, so they will still be able to use their licensed apps and content and get updates, but they will need their own going forward for iMessage, anyway.

Mods: I think we need a sticky on this.. have a feeling this question is going to be asked at least 10 times a day...
